Abstract
In order to explore the application of "patient and public involvement" (PPI) in acupuncture clinical research, the connotation, reporting standards and research status of PPI at home and abroad are collated, and the key problems of PPI encountered in acupuncture clinical research are deeply considered and summarized. It is suggested that the short-form checklist of the Guidance for Reporting Involvement of Patients and the Public (GRIPP) of the 2nd edition should be applied to acupuncture clinical research. PPI provides a new perspective for acupuncture clinical research. It is beneficial for each stage of research, contributes to the improvement of acupuncture medical service mode and increases the success rate and cost-effectiveness of research so that the innovation and development of acupuncture science can be promoted.
