To observe the effects of moxibustion on carotid femoral artery pulse wave velocity (C-FPWV) in patients with hypertension. Methods:A total of 70 hypertension clinical patients and hospitalized patients admitted and treated in Beijing Geriatric Hospital from April 2016 to February 2017. The patients were randomly divided into the moxibustion group and control group, with 35 cases in each group. Patients in the control group were treated with basic medical treatment; the patients in moxibustion group were used moxibustion treatment on the basis of that in the control group (acupoints: PC6 and ST36 on both sides, 15～30 min/time, 1 time every other day); patients in both groups were treated for 4 weeks. The PWV, blood pressure, blood glucose and blood lipid were measured before and 1，2, 3 months after treatment. Results:1 month after treatment, there was a significant difference in PWV between the moxibustion group and the control group. Moxibustion group PWV: 8.72±1.64 m/s, the control group 9.99±2.14 m/s (P<0.05). Conclusion:Moxibustion treatment can reduce the pulse wave velocity in patients with hypertension, improve arteria elasticity and the effects are related with the duration of treatment.
