Efficacy and Safety Study of Early Electroacupuncture Treatment Combined With ICU Standard Therapy on Organ Dysfunction and Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Sepsis: a Single-center, Randomized, Sham-Controlled Trial
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of electroacupuncture (EA) combined with standard Intensive Care Unit (ICU) therapy on organ dysfunction and other clinical outcomes in sepsis patients. Additionally, this study will conduct subgroup analyses to investigate the influence of septic shock and immunomodulators on the treatment effects and their correlation with electroacupuncture efficacy.
