Description
Summary:	Objective: to evaluate the frequency, structure and severity of adverse events (AEs) likely associated with computerized electroacupuncture (CEAP) in the complex treatment of diseases of internal organs. Metodology of review. Nine own studies were analyzed, which involved 639 patients suffering from bronchial asthma (BA), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Patients of the main groups, in addition to standard therapy, received courses of CEAP according to a certain scheme. The frequency, severity, structure and relationship of AEs with CEAP were assessed. Conclusion. The use of CEAP in the treatment of patients with IBS is not associated with an increase in the number of AEs. The frequency of AEs, probably associated with the use of CEAP, did not exceed 2.5 cases per 100 people per one course of CEAP.
