Summary

This study is a multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial that aims to observe the impact of Transcutaneous Electrical Acupoint Stimulation (TEAS) on plasma TK/MMP3 in a randomized controlled setting. The intervention group received percutaneous acupoint electrical stimulation, whereas the control group underwent conventional treatment. The primary objective is to enhance the management of postoperative delirium, specifically focusing on the occurrence and severity of delirium following thoracoscopic pulmonary resection. Additionally, various perioperative inflammatory markers, cognitive function, recovery quality, pain levels, anxiety, sleep patterns, postoperative complications, and overall hospital stay duration were monitored to elucidate the mechanisms through which percutaneous acupoint electrical stimulation improves postoperative delirium.

Conditions

  • Delirium, Postoperative

Interventions

DEVICE

Transcutaneous Electrical Acupoint Stimulation

Transcutaneous Electrical Acupoint Stimulation (TEAS) is a treatment that combines acupoint theory of traditional Chinese medicine with modern electrical stimulation techniques. It achieves the purpose of acupoint stimulation by applying a weak current to a specific part. TEAS operate just like ordinary electrodes with non-invasive, safe, portable, adjustable and other advantages.
