[The role of non-traditional methods of analgesia in the postoperative period]
Abstract:
192 patients, aged 33 to 67 years, predominantly after abdominal and small pelvic surgery have been examined. Non-conventional techniques of analgesia were used in most of patients: central electroanalgesia, transcutaneous peripheral and paravertebral electroanalgesia, corporal and auricular acupuncture. To ensure postoperative pain relief various types of electrical stimulation were applied using home-made devices, The efficacy of non-conventional anesthesia techniques in the postoperative period has been confirmed.
