With the development of electrostimulation technology, electroacupuncture has emerged within the field of acupuncture. Electroacupuncture leverages microcurrent stimulation of acupoints to achieve therapeutic effects and is widely used in clinical practice. However, the lack of clinical operation benchmark has affected its therapeutic efficacy, medical safety, and the reproducibility of treatment outcomes. In light of this, the World Federation of Acupuncture-Moxibustion Societies reviewed, approved, and released the
Technical Benchmark of Acupuncture and Moxibustion: Electroacupuncture
in 2023, which aims to standardize electroacupuncture procedures and enhance the standardization level of its clinical application. This paper discusses the practical significance and value of the
Technical Benchmark of Acupuncture and Moxibustion: Electroacupuncture,
reviews the development process, summarizes its characteristics, and shares insights from the development experience.
