What is A Randomized-controlled Trial Assessing the Effect of Intraoperative Acupuncture on Anesthesia-related Parameters During Gynecological Oncology Surgery about?

Context and objectives The present study examined the impact of intraoperative acupuncture on anesthesia-related parameters in patients undergoing gynecological oncology surgery. Methods Participants underwent preoperative integrative oncology (IO) touch/relaxation treatments, followed by intraoperative acupuncture (Group A); preoperative IO treatments without acupuncture (Group B); or standard care only (Group C). Mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), MAP variability (mean of MAP standard deviation), bispectral index (BIS), and calculated blood pressure Average Real Variability (ARV) were measured intraoperatively. Results A total of 91 patients participated: Group A, 41; Group B, 24; Group C, 26. Among patients undergoing open laparotomy, Group A showed lower and more stable MAP and HR compared to Group B, (MAP, p = 0.026; HR, p = 0.029) and Group C (MAP, p = 0.025). Mean BIS, from incision to suture closing, was lower in Group A (vs. controls, p = 0.024). In patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery, MAP was elevated within Group A (p = 0.026) throughout surgery, with MAP variability significantly higher in Group A (P = 0.023) and Group B (P = 0.013) 10 min post-incision
