Apparently ear acupuncture during hip replacement = less opioids, and apparently I have things to say about it. So proud of my team!! #Casual #ChengProtocol #intraoperativeacupuncture @drmikeast @bethgausdenmd @BrianChalmersMD @RamenShamanMD @HSSAnesthesia
HSS researchers have found that a specialized form of #acupuncture applied to the outer ear during hip replacement surgery reduces pain after the operation and lessens #opioid use over the weeks to follow. The findings were presented at @ESRA_Society.
