Abstract
Acupuncture, including the manual acupuncture, electroacupuncture and cutaneous electrical stimulation on acupiont, is known to enhance the gastric motility. The aim of this paper is to study the changes in electrogastrogram (EGG) when the acupiont Zusanli is stimulated cutaneously by electrical signal of mid-frequency. The result shows that the regularity of EGG is enhanced after the stimulation, and the improvement is more obvious in the EGG recorded near the antrum
