Abstract:
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in clinical practice. It has a high prevalence and poor prognosis. The application of antiarrhythmic drugs and even surgery cannot completely treat the disease, and there are many sequelae. AF can be classified into the category of \"palpitation\" in Chinese medicine according to its symptoms. Acupuncture has a significant effect on AF. The authors find that an important mechanism of acupuncture in AF treatment is to regulate the cardiac vagus nerve. Therefore, this article intends to review the distribution and function of vagus nerve in the heart, the application and the regulatroy effect for the treatment of AF.
摘要:
心房颤动(房颤)是临床上最常见的心律失常。患病率高,预后差。抗心律失常药物的应用甚至手术都不能完全治疗疾病,还有很多后遗症。房颤按症状分为中医“心悸”。针刺对房颤有显著疗效。作者发现针刺治疗房颤的重要机制是调节心脏迷走神经。因此,本文拟对迷走神经在心脏中的分布和功能进行综述,房颤治疗的应用和调节效果。
