Brief summary
This project intends to develop a clinical randomized controlled study of ADCT (acupuncture and drug compound technology) in accelerating the recovery of patients during the perioperative period of pneumonectomy. The ADCT the investigators proposed is a characteristic technology that uses acupuncture-related technologies to replace part of the dosage of narcotic drugs. With the support of the investigators' preliminary research results of ADCT, sequential TEAS (transcutaneous electrical acupoints stimulation) treatment before, during and after the operation promoted recovery after thoracoscopic lung resection. Compared with electroacupuncture, TEAS has the advantages of non-invasive, easy to repeat, safe, and low cost, and it has widely been accepted by patients. In view of the investigators' previous clinical observations and conclusions, ADCT in the perioperative period of lung resection surgery can indeed play a good role in organ protection and reduce surgical stress reaction. Therefore, it is necessary to further clarify the advantages and application value of ADCT and provide evidence-based medical evidence. is in accelerating the perioperative period of rehabilitation, it is imminent to formulate a standardized, practical, effective and conducive to the promotion and application of acupuncture and medicine compound technology in hospitals at all levels during the perioperative period of combined Chinese and Western medicine prevention and treatment programs. In order to formulate and optimize the application of ADCT in the entire perioperative period of lung resection surgery, and promote the establishment of the first perioperative rehabilitation management and treatment model based on ADCT in accelerated lung resection surgery to facilitate clinical promotion.
Detailed description
Since the first successful pulmonary resection under acupuncture anesthesia in 1960，the clinical application and research of lung surgery under acupuncture anesthesia has gone through 60 years，serving countless patients and achieving rich results． Looking back on its development，the application of acupuncture anesthesia in lung surgery has evolved from simple acupuncture anesthesia without intubation in the 1960s to combined anesthesia of acupuncture and narcotic drugs under tracheal intubation in the early 1980s．In recent years，with the popularization of endoscopic technology，the investigators had extensively carried out thoracoscopic lung surgery under combined anesthesia of acupuncture and narcotic drugs without intubation．Clinical practice and research have indicated that the thoracoscopic lung surgery under combined anesthesia without intubation shows obvious advantages，and the selection of intraoperative anesthesia methods，acupoints and stimulation methods are becoming mature．At present，the investigators are working on expanded application of acupuncture in perioperative period of lung surgery，which shows a promising future．In the future，it is necessary to improve the theory of acupuncture anesthesia，unify the clinical operation standards，establish an objective evaluation system，and explore the mechanism of acupuncture anesthesia． This project intends to develop a clinical randomized controlled study of ADCT (acupuncture and drug compound technology) in accelerating the recovery of patients during the perioperative period of pneumonectomy.

Interventions
DEVICEAcupuncture and Drug Compound Technology
Before operation: The points of the meridian: Hegu, Neiguan, Chize, Zusanli, both sides are taken. TEAS (transcutaneous electrical acupoints stimulation) was performed every day for three days before the operation, using the Han's acupoint nerve stimulator to adjust the density and density waveforms at a frequency of 2/100 Hz (Hz). Current intensity is 10mA, and all acupuncture points are continuously stimulated for 30 minutes. During the operation: take the acupoints Hegu, Neiguan, Houxi, and Zhigou on both sides and give TEAS 30 minutes before induction of anesthesia. The stimulation intensity and frequency are the same as those before the operation until the end of the operation. Postoperative: Take the acupoints Chize, Waiguan, Taichong, and Yanglingquan, and take both sides. TEAS will be performed every 12 hours from the first day after surgery. Each treatment is 30 minutes until 48 hours after surgery. The intensity and frequency are the same as before surgery.
Comprehensive evaluation of cardiopulmonary function, preparation of respiratory tract, active treatment of coexisting diseases before operation, correction of water and electrolyte disorders and hypoproteinemia before operation. To prevent cross-infection during the operation, the intraoperative blood volume should be supplemented within the tolerance of cardiac function, the tissue perfusion should be sufficient, and the infusion should be uniform. Strengthen respiratory care after operation, prevent cardiovascular complications, pay attention to the speed and amount of blood transfusion, encourage early activities, promote lung expansion and prevent thrombophlebitis.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Postoperative chest tube removal time (h) | up to 2 weeks after surgery | The time from the end of surgery to the removal of the thoracic catheter will be recorded |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| First defecation time after operation (h) | up to 1 week after surgery | The time between the patient's first defecation and the end of surgery will be recorded. |
| Visual Analog Scale of Pain | The third day before surgery, the second TEAS treatment on the first day after surgery, and the second TEAS treatment on the second day after surgery. | Visual analogue scale of pain will be used to evaluate the pain level of the surgical incision, and the score will be recorded.The 10cm sliding scale has 10 scales on one side, and the two ends are respectively 0 and 10 points. A point of 0 means no pain, and a point of 10 means the most severe pain that is unbearable. |
