Electrical and laser acupuncture was used in 2 groups of 50 patients each
who presented initial manifestations of cerebral circulation insufficiency (CCI).
It was shown that stimulating an experimentally selected combination of
acupuncture points on the affected side in initial manifestations of CCI, it
was possible to achieve a regionally localized action correcting the
cerebral hemodynamics. Changes in the tone of the regional vessels of the
brain were objectively documented with the help of echopulsography of the
cerebral vessels. The findings obtained included prolongation of the blood
clotting time, a decreased index of thrombin inactivation and a reduction in
the spontaneous fibrinolytic activity of the blood.
