|
|
Objectives: The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical application of acupuncture treatment to a cervical herniated intervertebral disc patient with hyperventilation syndrome developed after magnetic resonance imaging(MRI).
Methods: A patient with cervical herniated intervertebral disc got hyperventilation syndrome after taking magnetic resonance imaging. To relieve symptoms, we took paperbag breathing first aid, but it had no effect. So we used acupuncture therapy with strong stimulation. To measure the outcome of the patient’s improvement, we observed change of vital sign and verbal numerical rating scale(VNRS).
Results: After 8 minutes of acupuncture treatment, the patient had significant improvement in change of vital sign and verbal numerical rating scale(VNRS).
Conclusions: In emergency situation, acupuncture treatment as a first aid has a positive effect to control hyperventilation syndrome.
