Abstract:Background and aims
Experiencing respiratory symptoms, especially dyspnea and decreased oxygen saturation (SpO2) level in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) is associated with increased mortality. The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation of acupoints (Acu‐TENS) on the respiratory outcomes of COVID‐19 patients with moderate pulmonary involvement.
Methods
In these three‐blind parallel randomized clinical trials, 84 patients with COVID… Show more
