Objective: To assess treatment effect of auricular acupressure combined with evodia rutaecarpa powder paste Yongquan point in patient with insomnia of disharmony between heart and kidney. Methods: From January 2019 to December 2020, we collected valid data from 106 patient with insomnia of disharmony between heart and kidney. Patients were randomly divided into control group and intervention group according to the order of hospitalization.

Before treatment, sleep quality assessments of two groups were no significantly different (p > 0.05). After treatment, intervention group participants had better outcome in sleep quality than that of control group participants (p < 0.05). Also, in total treatment efficiency, higher percentage of total treatment efficiency in intervention group than in control group [49 (92.45%) vs 42 (79.25%)], and they were significantly different (p < 0.05). Conclusion: treatment effect of auricular acupressure combined with evodia rutaecarpa powder paste Yongquan point is better than common treatment for patient with insomnia of disharmony between heart and kidney.
