Assessment of Treatment Efficacy in Patients with Genital Herpes in Terms of Electrical Properties of Tissues at Specific Acupuncture Points Using a Fuzzy Mathematical Model

  • Published:
Biomedical Engineering Aims and scope

The classification of the stages of genital herpes is discussed on the basis of readings from acupuncture points P7 and VC7, which change their energy characteristics as the activity of genital herpes increases. Inclusion of reflex therapy methods to traditional treatment schemes was found to promote decreases in the duration of clinical episodes. A scheme for a standalone instrument based on a microcontroller with low energy consumption able to monitor the energy status of acupuncture points is described.
