Electroanalgesia was used in 102 patients operated on the gastro-intestinal tract for postoperative anesthesia. The analgetic effect was obtained in 2/3 of the patients. The indicators of respiration increased and those of blood circulation remained practically the same against the background of electroanalgesia. At the same time the use of non-narcotic analgetics resulted in a reliably decreased minute volume of blood circulation below the normal limits. The authors recommend electroanalgesia in the postoperative period for patients with initial disorders of the cardio-vascular and respiratory systems.
