摘要:	隨著老年人口比例的迅速成長，有關失智症的議題也逐漸受到大家的重視，尤以「阿茲海默氏症」長者為最。精油薰香經由嗅覺神經即刻影響大腦，近年來不少研究均證明有其效益，本研究使用薰衣草精油，對實驗組10名60歲至90歲阿茲海默長者，以及對照組10名相同年齡範圍的一般長者，施行5天各2小時薰香，並採用心率變異儀器 (HRV)檢測，觀察薰香前後對人體自律神經心率變異 (Heart Rate Variability，HRV) 指標 - 心搏數率 (Heart Rate ,HR)、心跳間期的標準偏差(SD)、高頻功率(High Frequency Power，HF)、常規化低頻功率比(Normalized-In LF%)的影響，並以臺灣長者情緒量表(TGDS)調查其精神情緒狀態。實驗結果顯示，精油薰香五日對一般長者的心跳(HR)變慢、SDNN上升、HF下降，LF%上升。在失智長者可發現HR、SDNN、LF、HF、TP皆上升。一般長者的心律變異數明顯高於失智長者。一般而言，年齡越高自律神經功能活性指標越低，但接受薰衣草精油薰香五日後，總功率(TP)有顯著性改善。表示薰香薰衣草精油實驗後對初期失智長者的自律神經功能活性也有正向的效果，呼應以前的文獻報導，芳香精油對人體的自律神經與情緒有相關效益。 With the rapid growth of the elderly population, issues related to dementia have gradually attracted attention, especially the elderly with "Alzheimer's disease". In recent years, many studies have proved that diffused essential oils immediately affect the brain via the olfactory nerves. This study diffused lavender essential oil, and with ten Alzheimer’s elderly people aged 60 to 90 in the experimental group, and ten normal people of the same age in the control group. The experimental period held for 5 days and 2 hours on each day. Instrument was used to observe the heart rate variability (HRV) index of the human autonomic nerve before and after the diffused session. Those indexes were : Heart Rate (HR), the standard deviation of the heart beat interval (SD), high frequency power (HF), and normalized low frequency power ratio (Normalized-In LF%). Finally, Taiwan Geriatric Depression Scale (TGDS) was investigated for the elderly’s mental and emotional states. Experimental results showed that essential oil incense slows down the heartbeat (HR) of the normal elderly people, and SDNN increases, HF decreases, and LF% increases after five days’ experiment. With the dementia elderly group, HR, SDNN, LF%, and HF were all increased. Yet, the heart rate variability of the normal group was significantly higher than that of the dementia group. Generally speaking, the higher the age, the lower the index of autonomic nervous function activity, but after diffusing lavender essential oil two hours on each day for five days, most HRV indexes had been improved on both groups. It meant that after the experiment of diffused lavender essential oil, there was a positive effect on the autonomic nervous activity of the elderly with dementia. This result was consistent with reports in the literature that aromatic essential oils have related benefits to human autonomic nerves and emotions.
