Overview

A total of 90 subjects underwent abdominal surgery under general anesthesia at Chaoyang Hospital in Beijing. The subjects were divided into a percutaneous acupoint electrical stimulation group and a control group. The subjects were selected for TEAS stimulation at the Neiguan, Hegu, and Zusanli acupoints on both sides, and EEG data were collected using a 32 lead EEG cap test throughout the entire process. During the experiment, changes in hemodynamic parameters (blood pressure, heart rate) and perioperative pain scores of the subjects will be recorded.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:1. Age between 18 and 80 years; 2. ASA physical status classification I-II; 3. Scheduled to undergo abdominal surgery under general anesthesia (e.g., gastrectomy, colorectal cancer surgery, etc.); 4. Consent to participate in the study and signing of the informed consent form.

Exclusion Criteria:1. Impaired cognitive function or language communication disorders; 2. Mental disorders, epilepsy, or abnormal EEG activity; 3. Receipt of acupoint therapy within two weeks prior to surgery; 4. Presence of a cardiac pacemaker or metal implants; 5. Allergy to surface electrodes; 6. Concomitant medical conditions (e.g., dermatological disorders) that may affect treatment or trial administration.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
