Data is presented as mean standard deviations. TEAS: transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation. T0: before anesthesia; T1: induction; T2: intubation; T3: onset of surgery; T4: 30 minutes after surgery; T5: at the end of surgery; T6: extubation; T7: out of operation room; T8: at the time of entry to PACU; T9: at the time out of PACU. MAP: mean arterial pressure; HR: heart rate; SPO2: oxygen saturation; T: core temperature.
