Table 4 Interventions used to treat salivary amylase activity elevation and the improvement in terms of body movement [number of episodes of salivary amylase activity elevation/recovery rate of salivary amylase activity (%)]

Body movement	Presence	Absence
Number (times)	17	9
Release of gastric wall tension only	2/86.2	5/66.1
Medication (pentazocine injection) only	12/94.7	3/95.9
Release and medication (pentazocine)	2/119.6	0/-
Medication (midazolam or propofol injection) only	1/124.2	1/85.6

Recovery rate of sAMY (%) = (the elevated sAMY level-decreased sAMY level immediately after intervention)/the elevated sAMY level × 100. sAMY: Salivary amylase activity.
