Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
the TEAS group
Patients in the TEAS group received pre-operative TEAS for 30 min before the induction of anesthesia using the Hans electronic acupuncture apparatus (HANS-100A, Nanjing Jisheng Medical Technology Company, Nanjing, China) in the holding area. TEAS was applied to two pairs of acupoints: bilateral Hegu (LI4) and Neiguan (PC6).
the Hans electronic acupuncture apparatus
TEAS was performed with a dense-disperse frequency of 2/10 Hz and an intensity of 6-9 mA for 30 min using the Hans electronic acupuncture apparatus (HANS-100A, Nanjing Jisheng Medical Technology Company, Nanjing, China).
the sham group
In the sham group, the patients were connected to the Hans electronic acupuncture apparatus (HANS-100A, Nanjing Jisheng Medical Technology Company, Nanjing, China), but electronic stimulation was not applied.
the Hans electronic acupuncture apparatus
TEAS was performed with a dense-disperse frequency of 2/10 Hz and an intensity of 6-9 mA for 30 min using the Hans electronic acupuncture apparatus (HANS-100A, Nanjing Jisheng Medical Technology Company, Nanjing, China).
