Association of auricular pressing and heart rate variability in pre-exam anxiety students** Wocao Wu, Junqi Chen, Erchuan Zhen, Huanlin Huang, Pei Zhang, Jiao Wang, Yingyi Ou, Yong Huang TCM School of Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, Guangdong Province, China Abstract A total of 30 students scoring between 12 and 20 on the Test Anxiety Scale who had been exhibiting Wocao Wu and Junqi Chen contributed equally to this an anxious state 24 hours, and 30 normal control students were recruited. Indices of heart rate article. variability were recorded using an Actiheart electrocardiogram recorder at 10 minutes before auricular pressing, in the first half of stimulation and in the second half of stimulation. The results Corresponding author: Yong Huang, M.D., Professor, revealed that the standard deviation of all normal to normal intervals and the root mean square of Chief physician, Doctoral standard deviation of normal to normal intervals were significantly increased after stimulation.
