Abstract

Acupuncture
is an ancient Chinese therapy. Acupuncture has proved its value in our modern
practice as a method of easing pain and producing a type of anesthesia.
Acupuncture is still experimental in this country. Although it is used for pain
therapy we need some more clinical and experimental study to evaluate analgesic
mechanisms. In veterinary medicine use of acupuncture is extremely limited and
its advantages have not been emphasized. Even though it has been well
documented that a laparotomy can be performed under acupuncture analgesia it is
not known to what extend werequire preanesthesia preparations. In this article,
via guide of new development of acupuncture technigues were reviewed details

Abstract

Akupunktur eski bir Çin tedavi
metodudur. Modern tıpta ağrı dindirmede ve bir tür anestezi ortaya çıkartmada
değerini kanıtlamıştır. Ülkemizde hala deneysel düzeydedir. Ağrı tedavisinde
kullanılsa da analjezi mekanizmalarını ortaya çıkarmak için daha fazla klinik
çalışmaya ihtiyaç vardır. Ülkemizde veteriner hekimliğinde akupunkturun
kullanımı son derece kısıtlıdır ve önemi de vurgulanmamıştır. Bir laparatomi
operasyonunun akupunktur anestezisi altında yapılabileceği yayınlarda açıkça
belirtilmiş olmasına rağmen preaneztezik ilaçlara ne derecede ihtiyacımız
olduğu bilinmemektedir. Bu makalede akupunkturla ilgili çalışmalar, yeni
gelişmeler ışığında gözden geçirilmiştir
