VEITIA ESTRADA, María del Carmen; PENTON VALDIVIA, Miguel Ángel  y  PALMERO ESTRADA, Malvila. Acupuntura y sus técnicas en el asma bronquial. Rev Cubana Enfermer [online]. 2002, vol.18, n.1, pp.32-37. ISSN 0864-0319.

A descriptive study was made and the use of acupuncture and its techniques to treat patients with bronchial asthma in the municipality of Fomento, Las Villas, from January to December, 1998 was analyzed. The sample was composed of 200 patients divided into different age groups. The relationship between bronchial asthma and some biosocial factors as age, sex and occupation was among the studied aspects. The evolution of patients with acupuncture, auriculotherapy, moxibustion, ventouse, etc. was analyzed. In our study, it was demonstrated the usefulness of theses simple and economic procedures for the control and good evolution of the patient with bronchial asthma, which contributes to reaffirm the real objectives and premises of Directive 26, and encourages the use of acupuncture and its techniques in our municipality to promote the development of our medicine. A good evolution was observed with all the techniques.
