头针对脑电图影响的初步观察

<正> 据报道,头针疗法对于神经系统疾病的疗效很突出,并在脑电图的研究中发现头针“对皮层功能的调节作用和病理状态的恢复作用”。作者还口头报道有“头针波”的发现。在医疗实践中,我们也观察到头针治疗的某些疗效。本工作首先试图验证上述脑电图研究报道的可靠性,以便进一步深入研究。

PRELIMINARY OBSERVATION ON THE EFFECTS OF HEAD-ACUPUNCTURE ON ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAM(EEG)

In 48 experiments made on 12 subjects, the effects of head-acupuncture and body-acupuncture on EEG were compared. The results were as follows: The effects of head-acupuncture points or non-points on EEG were similar. Dnring twirling of the needle, the midde to high amplitude of slow waves with phase reversal appeared on the leads near the stimulated place. These slow waves were artifacts produced by twirling of the needle. The effects of body-acupuncture on EEG were the same as head-acupuncture, but there were not the artifacts during twirling of the needle.
