Systematic Evaluation and Meta Analysis of Acupuncture Compounding General Anesthesia

Objective: Systematic evaluation of the effect of acupuncture combination anaesthesia on the use of inoperative anesthesia and the time of awakening. Method: 6 electronic databases are independently retrieved by two persons as of December 2013; screening by study criteria for incorporation and exclusion of acupuncture clinical trials for complying with the requirements of acupuncture assisted anesthesia; Chrane Handbook instructs two to use independently RevMan conducts biased risk and literature quality assessment of each clinical trial that meets the criteria for incorporation, extracts information such as objects, methods and results included in the study; the total amount of narcotic drugs used to maintain a certain depth of anesthesia as the main indicator, post-operative wake time as a secondary indicator, and when conditions are met, Meta Outcome: Final inclusion in 12 studies, including 979 patients, Meta analysis results are expressed in mean difference (MD) and 95% confidence interval (CI). The intravenous anesthetic propofol dosage is -59.29 [-91.92, -26.67]; the eye opening time in wake time is -6.80 [-10.50, -3.10], the trachea pulation time is -5.52 [-8.06, -2.99] and Post-operative recovery room Evacuation time -11.46 [-16.55, -6.37]. Conclusion: Acupuncture compounded general anesthesia reduces intravenous drug use and shortens anesthesia awakening time compared to regular general anesthesia.
