Abstract

HERVIS LEE, Tamara; VALDES PACHECO, Everardo  and  TALLET ALFONSO, Alec. La Auriculopuntura con semillas en el tratamiento del asma bronquial en edad pediátrica. Rev Cubana Med Gen Integr [online]. 1999, vol.15, n.4, pp.419-425. ISSN 0864-2125.

A descriptive and investigative study was conducted at the "19 de Abril" Teaching Polyclinic during 1996. 97 children carriers of bronchial asthma, who were between 1 and 14 years old, were treated with auriculopuncture by the method of sticking and pressuring with Wang Bu Liu Xin seeds, a method that is developed by the school of professor Huan Li Chung. It was possible to reduce the use of drugs during the crises and intercrises, as well as the number of patients classified as severe and moderate asthmatic patients. As a result, there was an increase of patients with mild asthma.
