The EAA and LFMECT devices are presented. (A) Low frequency modulated electric current therapy (LFMECT) was performed using the SCENAR®™ device. The body acupuncture-meridians, bladder-meridian and Bachmann-points were stimulated on an outpatient basis. (B) For electrical auricular acupuncture (EAA) the P-Stim®™ device was used. Before insertion of the acupuncture needles, skin resistance was measured with an electrical conductance meter to identify the exact acupuncture points (Shen Men 55, knee 49, and cushion 29). Titan disposable auricular needles were inserted at the dominant side and connected to the P-Stim®™ device. Patients received continuous low-frequency EAA for 96 hours on an outpatient basis.
