摘要
Objectives: To observe the analgesic effect and to analyze the related mechanisms of acupuncture anesthesia (AA) for appendectomy. Methods: A total of 41 cases of appendicitis patients (24 males and 17 females) were subjected into this observation. Electroacupuncture (AA, 60-100 Hz, a bearable stimulus strength) of Pishu (BL 20), Weishu (BL 21), Zhangmen (LR 13) and Wushu (GB 27) was performed beginning 30 minutes before operation. Adjuvants used were luminal (100 mg, intra muscular injection), dolantin (1 mg/kg), 0.5% procaine (1-2 mL). Results: Of the 41 cases, the successful rate was 87.80% and the excellent plus good rate was 75.61% respectively. Conclusion: Acupuncture anesthesia is applicable for appendectomy in clinic but is still to be improved further in operation.
