Investigation of the Optimal Parameters of Median Nerve Stimulation Using a Variety of Stimulation Methods and Its Effects on Heart Rate Variability: A Systematic Review

Acute traumatic coma awakening by right median nerve electrical stimulation: a randomised controlled trial

“…The role of neuromodulation through peripheral nerve stimulation is supported by reports of therapeutic potential in other recent publications [ 12 , 27 ]. Right median nerve stimulation has also been employed in different diseases, including spinocerebellar ataxia [ 28 ], essential tremor [ 29 ], and autonomic nervous system dysfunction [ 30 ]. The cumulative incidence curve of our study showed long-term effects of RMNS treatment, and this trend was also observed in other studies [ 11 , 12 ], with a similar electrical stimulation protocol as applied in this study.…”

Study on the effect of acupunture treatment on autonomic nerve dysfunction in convalescent period of stroke based on heart rate variability assessment technique

“…Studies have revealed that acupuncture has a bidirectional adjustment to the heart rate of healthy people, which is equivalent to the impact of acupuncture on balancing yin and yang, [21] and the vagus nerve is the key reaction. [22,23] Modern studies [23][24][25][26] have found that Neiguan is close to the median nerve and overlaps with the innervated nerve segments of the heart, and the information of acupuncture at Neiguan can reach the cardiovascular center, namely the nucleus of the solitary tract, the posterior hypothalamus and the preoptic area-the front part of the hypothalamus. In the early stage of our research group, a patient with mild autonomic dysfunction in the convalescence period of stroke and a severe patient were acupunctured with bilateral Zusanli and bilateral Neiguan, respectively, and we found that the HRV values of the 2 patients reached equilibrium at 20 minutes and 25 minutes of acupuncture.…”
