Neiguan and Jianshi Acupoint Stimulation Aids Hemodynamic Stability in a Cervical Cord Trauma Patient
A 36-year-old male patient with posttraumatic cervical cord damage and resultant quadriparesis, demonstrated hypotension and periods of bradycardia. For most of his two-month stay in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), he was dependent on dopamine support to maintain hemodynamic stability. Keeping in mind evidence from the literature, that electrostimulation of acupoints Neiguan (PC - 6) and Jianshi...

متن کاملMagnetic stimulation at Neiguan (PC6) acupoint increases connections between cerebral cortex regions
Stimulation at specific acupoints can activate cortical regions in human subjects. Previous studies have mainly focused on a single brain region. However, the brain is a network and many brain regions participate in the same task. The study of a single brain region alone cannot clearly explain any brain-related issues. Therefore, for the present study, magnetic stimulation was used to stimulate...
متن کاملLaser-Induced Evoked Potentials in the Brain after Nonperceptible Optical Stimulation at the Neiguan Acupoint: A Preliminary Report
We report on small but reproducible human cerebral evoked potentials after bilateral nonperceptible laser needle (658 nm, 40 mW, 500 μm, 1 Hz) irradiation of the Neiguan acupoint (PC6). The results which are unique in scientific literature were obtained in a 26-year-old female healthy volunteer within a joint study between the Medical University of Graz, the Karl-Franzens University of Graz, an...
متن کاملIntramedullary spinal cord tuberculoma in a patient with AIDS.
Intramedullary spinal cord tuberculoma in a young, homosexual man with AIDS was detected with the use of MR and confirmed pathologically. MR findings were similar to those seen in other intramedullary lesions, eg, astrocytoma, ependymoma, hemangioblastoma, metastasis, lymphoma, and opportunistic infections. Delineation of the lesion improved with administration of Gd-DTPA; enhancement of the le...
