Clean Needle Technique Manual for Acupuncturists: Guidelines and Standards for the Clean and Safe Practice of Acupuncture, 6TH Edition, represents an extensive update and reorganization of information, including new chapters on Exposure Control Plans, Practitioner Health and Hygiene, and Record Keeping. Also new, is expanded information on blood-borne pathogens and establishing and maintaining a clean and safe office environment. The format of the Manual has been updated for clear and concise presentation to aid accessing information quickly and includes additional space for notes and commentary. The 6th edition of the Clean Needle Technique Manual for Acupuncturists reflects the efforts of educators and professionals in the acupuncture and Oriental medicine field to bring you the most up-to-date information available, including OSHA and CDC standards and is the definitive guide to the safe, clinical practice of acupuncture. It is the manual required by the Council of Colleges of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine to be used in preparation for the Clean Needle Technique Exam. This exam is required for national certification, which in turn, is required by most states for licensure as an acupuncture and Oriental medicine professional. For 25 years, the National Commission for the Certification of Acupuncturists, Council of Colleges of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, National Acupuncture Foundation, and colleagues across the United States, have collaborated on the establishment and revision of the standards for the clean and safe practice of acupuncture. The Clean Needle Technique Manual for Acupuncturists, 6th Edition, is the product of that ongoing collaboration. The Clean Needle Technique Manual for Acupuncturists: Guidelines and Standards for the Clean and Safe Practice of Acupuncture, 6TH Edition, is available in English, Chinese and Korean from Bookmasters and Amazon.

This review is from: Clean Needle Technique Manual for Acupuncturists: Guidelines and Standards for the Clean and Safe Clinical Practice of Acupuncture, 6th Edition (Paperback)
I am glad for the opportunity to review this book. It is a good outlet for the annoyance I feel at being forced to purchase it. The book ($34.95) and its accompanying course ($135.00) is compulsory in order to get licensed (at least in my state). They are both procured through the "Council of Colleges of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (CCAOM"). One may not take the course without purchasing the book, which must be the latest edition and may not be borrowed or copied from someone who has previously taken the test. The editions change frequently. I galls me that the same agency that sets the standards stands to profit from their own requirements. Clean needle technique is important but there is no reason why acupuncture schools cannot incorporate this information into their curriculum (as do nursing schools).

Blank Pages,

This review is from: Clean Needle Technique Manual for Acupuncturists: Guidelines and Standards for the Clean and Safe Clinical Practice of Acupuncture, 6th Edition (Paperback)
Very well written book, however I have several blank pages. No one seems to be willing to fix the problem. I get a hold of Amazon and they tell me to get a hold of the publisher, I call the publisher and they do not return my calls.

it has all you need,
This review is from: Clean Needle Technique Manual for Acupuncturists: Guidelines and Standards for the Clean and Safe Clinical Practice of Acupuncture, 6th Edition (Paperback)
This is required for the CNT course for students of acupuncture. The book has all you need to do great on the exam and to pass the practical portion of the test. The information is up-to-date and relatively easy to read.
