Electro acupuncture one time and eight times in and out of GB 20 on 55 healthy persons with ages from 20 to 27 showed that: There is no changing of frequency, amplitude and wave of EEG index when electro acupuncture out of GB 20. Electro acupuncture GB 20 make changing of frequency, amplitude and wave of EEG index. After electro acupuncture, Alpha wave index average increased 14%, amplitude increased 4μV. Beta wave index decreased 2%, amplitude decreased 3μV. Theta and delta wave index decreased 4% amplitude decreased 3μV.

By1 time and 8 times , electroacupuncture (EA) was performed in and out of Phongtri site (GB20) of 55 healthy persons aged 20-27 years. Out of GB20, EA did not make frequency, amplitude and EEG indices changed in comparing with those before acupuncture, while in GB20 site, EA created the changes in frequency, amplitude and EEG indices in occipital and temporal areas. Upon EA , alpha wave index increased in average 14%, amplitude increased by 4 microV; beta wave index reduced by 2% in average, amplitude reduced by 3 microV. After electro- acupuncture theta and delta waves reduced 4% in average and amplitude reduced 3 microV in average

95 patients with hemiplegia due to cerebrovasculary accident (32 females, 63 males) treated by 30days of electro- acupuncture. Results were as follow: thumb of simple paralysis had got rehabilitation better than the paralysis in combining with edema and contracted thumb. The sooner treatment,the better result got. The increasing level of mobility at 3a degree reached 36% and 3b degree 33,2%

Electro boa acupuncture (EBA) and electro acupuncture (EA) to rehabilitate the motor function for hemiplegic patients caused by cerebral infarction. Objective: (1) Describe the clinical characteristic of hemiplegic patients caused by cerebral infarction. (2) Evaluate the rehabilitation of motor function in Hemiplegic patients acording to clinical characteristics. Method: 100 hemiplegic patients was selected accidentaly. 50 hemiplegic patients caused by cerebral infarction was applied EBA , and 50 hemiplegic patients was applied EA. The result of treatment was compared after 30 days Resuls: Majority of patien was over 60 years old. In EBA group very good result (recovery) was 30%, good effect 56%; in EA group very good result (recovery) was 18%, good effect 58%. According to Orgogozo and Barthel scale, after treatment, group of patients with EBA, the indexes are all higher than group with EA. Conclusion: EBA to rehabilitate the motor function for hemiplegic patients caused by cerebral infarction has better results than EA.

Elecotroacupunture was applied on Tuc tam ly site in 50 healthy persons aged 19-25, some organs were affected on cerebroelectrogramme (CEG), on 2 hemispheres wave indices varied (alphawave increased 10-15%, beta, theta, delta decreased 3-5%). Acetylcholin level increased by 210%, catecholamin 227% in comparing with those before the acupuncture. Inhibition of transmission through monosynapse reflexe at myelospinal level was reduced (latent duration after the electroacupuncture at tuc tam ly site was 40ms, prolonged by 35ms in comparing with that before the acupuncture. The amplitude of H wave after acupuncture was 0.3mV, imcomparing with 1.4mV before that).

Blood hypertension of Can hoa vuong (from of “aggressive liver fire”) form was common in subjects aged above 50 years (73%) and mainly in intellectual subjects (60%). Electroacupuncture was applied on the sites of Thai xung, Phong tri, Bach hoi, Thuong tinh, Thai duong, Tam am giao, giving an effect of reduce blood pressure. Before the acupuncture, there were 52% of cases were hypertension of 1st stage and 48% of 2nd stage. After the treatment, on 40% of subjects, normal blood pressure had been restored and 60^ had returned to hypertension of 1st stage, none in 2nd stage of hypertension.

Electro-acupuncture was applied for 149 perceptive deaf children. The control group included 43 deaf children treated by speical education method. Results showed that: in the group of electro-acupuncture, 53.3% had got improvement, higher than the group of special education by 23.3%. The improvement rate was higher in mild deaf group, than in severe group. It was also higher in acquired deaf subjects than in congenital subjects. In the deaf caused by “can dom hoa cuong” (aggressive fire of liver and bile), improvement level was higher than the deaf caused by “than am hu” (failure of kidney yinn). The treatment with more courses had got higher improvement than with less courses.

155 patients with thyroid tumors were operated under acupuncture anaesthesia associated with medicaments (group 1) and undergone topical anesthesia in superficiel cervical plexus area (group 2). Observation showed that in the course of vascular, operation, pulse, blood presure and respiratory rhythm increased in both two groups but in group 1, these indices were less increased than in group 2 (in average, mean pulse increased by 4 cycles/minute, max. blood pressure increased by 5mmHg, min. blood pressure 3mmHg, respiratory rythm 0,6 times/minute. After the anesthetic acupuncture, beta endorphine level increased dramatically (45,25pg/ml) versus before that (35,58pg/ml) acetyl choline level increased by 273% and catecholamin by 267% versus before that

Study on 216 patients of drug addicts were treated by electro accupuncture shown that: the majority of drug addicts were 21 to 40 years old. It was rare for man become addicts at the age of under 20 and over 40. Incidence of addicts in cities was higher than those in countries side. Jobless person was easy to become drug addicts. Heavy addicts and moderate one were taking drug with sniffing and injection. The drug addicts were treated by electro acupuncture, and results as follow: A level (very good) taken up 92.6%, B level (good) taken up 7.4%. Symptoms of withdrawal syndrom after 4 days and 8 days in duration of treatment remarkably reduced (p<0.01). After treatment, content of beta - endorphinemia statistically increased (p<0.01) in compare with before treatment.

Study on 120 patients having ureterstonectomy and bladderstonectomy anesthesia with acupuncture anesthesia showed that: in group of acupuncture anesthesia combined with supporting medicines (AACSM) pulsation increased average 9 cycles per minute, systolic BP increased average 8 mmHg, breathing rhythm increased average 1 time per minute, oxygen saturation in blood of patient seem unchageable during the time of operation. The anesthesia level A and B were 86.7%, the same for group of SA (90%). After acupuncture anesthesia, pain threshold of patient in AACSM group were 2.23 (K=2.23) higher than those of patient in group applying acupuncture anesthesia with out supporting medicine (K=1.95).
