Ancient needles meet modern medicine: can acupuncture stop surgery sickness?
NCT ID NCT05975385
Summary
This study tested whether adding acupuncture during gallbladder removal surgery helps prevent nausea and vomiting afterward. Researchers compared patients who received standard anti-nausea medications alone versus those who also received acupuncture at specific points during their operation. The goal was to see if this combination provides better relief from these common and uncomfortable post-surgery symptoms.
