Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of TEAS pretreatment and treatment on hepatic and renal dysfunction induced by pneumoperitoneum in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgeries.

Detailed description

Patients were randomly assigned to three groups, control group and two intervention groups, receiving TEAS before and after general anesthesia induction respectively. TEAS was given through electrodes attached to acupoints. The time for TEAS was 30min. Venous blood samples were collected before and 20min after pneumoperitoneum. Hepatic and renal function index including AST, ALT, ALP, BUN, Cr were measured.

Conditions

• Hepatic Dysfunction Transient
• Renal Function Disorder

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	TEAS pretreatment	Electric stimulation was given through electrode attached to specific acupoints for 30mins before anesthesia induction
OTHER	TEAS treatment	Transcutaneous Electrical Acupoint Stimulation was given to the patient at the same time of the start of anesthesia induction for 30mins
