未经证实:这项研究的目的是观察两个穴位上的微电流电刺激,耳廓和Hegus,可以帮助患者防止呕吐反射。
未经评估:这是一项体内横断面研究。
UNASSIGNED:30名患者被随机分为三组:A,B,或者C,每组10名患者。A组和B组使用电针装置在耳穴和黑热穴(Li4)上进行电针(微电流电刺激),分别,1分钟,C组组成安慰剂组,点寿三里(李10)。使用gag严重程度指数和gag预防指数来测量gag反射,分两步完成。
未经批准:SPSS(SPSSInc.,芝加哥IL,美国)24版软件进行统计分析。配对t检验,方差检验的单向分析,事后Bonferroni检验用于分析和比较数据。
UNASSIGNED:发现A点和B点在降低呕吐反射的严重程度方面显着有效。C点显示出不显著的结果。此外,在20-70岁的设定年龄组内,B点(Hegus[Li4])比A点(耳廓)更有效地控制患者的呕吐反射。
UNASSIGNED:微电流电刺激是治疗常规牙科手术过程中不良呕吐反射的有用佐剂。Hegus点和耳穴针刺都有助于降低呕吐反射的严重程度,Hegus点比耳穴更有效。
The aim of this study is to see if microcurrent electrical stimulation on two acupoints, auricular and Hegus, can help patients prevent their gag reflex.
This was an in vivo cross-sectional study.
Thirty patients were randomly assigned to three groups: A, B, or C, of ten patients present in each group. Group A and Group B undergone electroacupuncture (microcurrent electrical stimulation) using electroacupuncture device on auricular point and Hegus point (Li 4), respectively, for 1 min and Group C formed the placebo group, point Shou San Li (Li 10). The gag severity index and the gag prevention index were used to measure the gag reflex, which was done in two steps.
SPSS (SPSS Inc., Chicago IL, USA) version 24 software was used for statistical analysis. Paired t-test, one-way analysis of variance test, post hoc Bonferroni test was used to analyse and compare the data.
It was found that Point A and Point B were significantly effective in reducing the severity of gag reflex. Point C demonstrated insignificant results. In addition, Point B (Hegus [Li4]) is more effective than Point A (auricular) in controlling the gag reflex in patients within the set age group of 20-70 years of age.
Microcurrent electrical stimulation is a useful adjuvant in the treatment of unfavorable gag reflexes during routine dental procedures. Point Hegus and point auricular acupuncture are both useful in decreasing the severity of gag reflex, with point Hegus being more effective than point auricular.
