title: [Research on compound electroacupuncture waveforms by microcomputer control].
abstract: Reviewing the development and the current situation of electroacupuncture, the deficiencies and shortcomings of electroacupuncture instrument applied in clinic and laboratory are analyzed. It is proposed that compound electroacupuncture waveform is an inevitable trend for electroacupuncture technique development. Based on the clinic and experiment needs, three different waveforms are taken as the model of compound electroacupuncture waveforms. Controlled by the microcomputer technique, the compound electroacupuncture waveforms are more multiple and precise, which will expand the range of application of electroacupuncture.
