Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Objective to investigate the protective effect of preoperative electroacupuncture on lung function in patients with mechanical ventilation for more than 2 hours under general anesthesia

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Randomized parallel control study. From September 1, 2021 to December 31, 2022, patients with mechanical ventilation time more than 2 hours will be randomly divided into electroacupuncture pretreatment group and blank control group. The blood gas index, ventilator parameters and serum inflammatory factor concentration of patients will be evaluated to evaluate whether electroacupuncture has protective effect on lung function of patients with mechanical ventilation.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

electroacupuncture group

In the electroacupuncture group, acupoints of Lieque (+), Chize (-), Sanyinjiao (-), Zusanli (+), Tanzhong (+) and Yutang (-) will be selected for electrical stimulation. Density wave will be selected, and the current intensity should be tolerated by the patients. Conventional anesthesia operation could be started after the connection of electroacupuncture, and acupuncture point stimulation was stopped 30min later.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

electroacupuncture

Intervention Type OTHER

In the electroacupuncture group, acupoints of Lieque (+), Chize (-), Sanyinjiao (-), Zusanli (+), Tanzhong (+) and Yutang (-) will be selected for electrical stimulation. Density wave will be selected, and the current intensity should be tolerated by the patients. Conventional anesthesia operation could be started after the connection of electroacupuncture, and acupuncture point stimulation will be stopped 30min later.

control group

The patient underwent routine anesthesia without acupuncture treatment

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
