The filiform needling technique is an important factor affecting the acupoint effect, and it is the key to option the needling technique corresponding to the disease so that the clinical curative effect can be improved. This paper systematically reviews the application of kinetic needling in the treatment of spasm, in order to provide some theoretical basis for the optimal acupuncture regimen of spasm. By summarizing and analyzing the similarities and differences of acupoint selection principle, needling characteristics, stimulation range, stimulation amount and indications in the treatment of spasm, it is found that kinetic needling emphasizes the effective combination of acupuncture and kinesis, which is an effective mean of treating spasm.

This article reviewed the diagnosis and treatment of the main vascular diseases with surgical approach, especially the advance and challenge of endovascular therapy. Highlight of the basic studies on vascular surgery was briefly introduced. Also, the author proposes his recommendation on vascular surgeons training as well as the design and performance of multi-center prospective studies.

Vascular interventional surgery is an important means to treat cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, but the particularity of its working environment will bring greater radiation threat to doctors. Vascular interventional surgery robots can effectively improve the working environment of doctors and can provide more stable operations, improve the success rate of surgery. This study mainly introduces the current research status, key technologies, and future application of vascular interventional surgical robots.

OBJECTIVETo verify the feasibility and safety of the vascular interventional vascular interventional surgical robot system applied to vascular interventional operation.

METHODSFrom March to September 2013, 10 patients had undergone robot-assisted cerebral angiography. There were 6 male and 4 female patients; aged from 19 to 58 years, with an average age of 38.4 years. The operation were carried out by neurosurgeons and vascular interventional robot. After successfully implanted of femoral artery sheath by hand, the catheter was fixed on the robot, under the guidance of navigation image the surgeon manipulate the master part and control the slave part of robot by sending command through network transmission, finally finished the whole cerebral angiography. The operation time was recorded from placing the sheath into femoral artery to finishing cerebrovascular selective angiography, simultaneously the time of staff under exposure of X ray was recorded, and the position difference between the setted targets and the actual position(positioning accuracy).

RESULTSIt took 25-41 minutes to finish the cerebral angiography, the average time was (31 ± 5) minutes, and the robot-assisted angiography went quickly and smoothly without surgical complications. The remote positioning accuracy was (1.03 ± 0.23) mm. The time of staff under exposure of X ray was 0 minute, the entire experimental process was basically implemented mechanization and automation.

CONCLUSIONThis system basically achieves initial medical purposes, such as reducing the radiation, facilitating interventional procedures on the basis of enhancing the image navigation, shorting the operation time, and improve the quality of operation.

The clinical experience of ' penetrating needling method for refractory diseases is summarized. In clinical practice, the penetrating needling method is usually divided into shallow penetrating needling method and deep penetrating needling method. The shallow penetrating method includes parallel penetrating method, cross penetrating method, relay penetrating method and multi-directional penetrating method. Deep penetrating needling method includes deep penetration at auricular area, deep penetration at back- points, deep penetration at buttocks and deep penetration at knees. The clinical application of penetrating needling method should be based on the symptoms and the operation essentials should be grasped, in which, the needling sensation could go to the affected area, one acupoint could be stimulated by different techniques to ensure the suppelementory effect.
