SUMMARY
The presented study aimed to determine whether the electrical properties of the skin could discriminate against the mother-newborn pair before and after the course of acupuncture. Testing by the Ryodoraku method was carried out on 148 pairs of mothers and their newborns at the age of 11–28 days
at the beginning and end of the late neonatal period. Multivariate statistical comparison showed that partners can be discriminated against from the control group based on the assessment of electrical conduction before and after the course of acupuncture. The data support the concept that cutaneous
conductance is an independent predictor in a pair.
