Abstract
Osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) occur frequently in the elderly, with percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) being the major clinical treatment at present. How to improve the patient's surgical cooperation while ensuring surgical safety is the focus of clinical research. This study explores the influence of acupuncture anesthesia (AA) on the safety, inflammatory response, and cellular immunity of OVCF patients undergoing PVP, which may provide a more reliable safety guarantee for future treatment of OVCFs. The results showed that patients using AA had lower postoperative Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores and incidence of postoperative adverse reactions, a smaller anesthetic dosage, but an extended duration of anesthesia; moreover, the postoperative inflammatory response was markedly alleviated and the stability of T lymphocyte subsets was obviously enhanced. Therefore, AA has high clinical application value in PKP treatment of OVCFs in the future.
