Akutmedicin och homeopati
Menachem Oberbaum och hans kollegor vid Center for Integrated Complementary Medicine, Shaare Zedek Medical Center i Israel, undersökte homeopatisk behandling inom akutmedicin. Deras arbete publicerades i tidskriften Homeopathy.
Studieöversikt:
Femton ortopediska patienter inkluderades i studien. De behandlades med homeopati i två faser, med start 24 timmar efter traumat. Alla patienter fick initialt Arnica montana 200CH i en engångsdos.
Ångest behandlades individuellt enligt dess karaktär:
Aconitum napellus 200CH gavs till nio patienter
O***m 200CH gavs till tre patienter
Ignatia amara 200CH gavs till två patienter
Arsenicum album 200CH gavs till en patient
Resultat:
En dag efter behandlingen rapporterade majoriteten av patienterna en förbättring:
58 % upplevde minskad smärta
89 % hade minskad ångest
Totalt kände 61 % att homeopatisk behandling var till hjälp
I den andra fasen, 48 timmar efter traumat, behandlades specifika besvär med klassisk homeopati. Vid utskrivningen bedömde patienterna att den homeopatiska behandlingen var framgångsrik i 67 % av fallen med specifika besvär.

Emergency Medicine and Homeopathy.
Menachem Oberbaum and his colleagues at the Center of Integrated Complementary Medicine Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Israel looked at homeopathic treatment in emergency medicine. Their work was published in the journal Homeopathy.
"Fifteen orthopedic patients were included. They were treated by homeopathy in two phases starting 24 h post-trauma. All patients initially received Arnica montana 200CH in a single dose. Anxiety was treated with Aconite 200CH in nine patients, O***m 200CH in three, Ignatia 200CH in two and Arsenicum album 200CH in one according to the type of anxiety.
One day later, most patients reported a lessening of pain, 58% felt improvement, 89% had reduced anxiety, and overall, 61% felt that homeopathic treatment was helpful.
In the second phase, 48 h post-trauma, specific complaints were addressed with classical homeopathy. At discharge patients rated the homeopathic treatment successful in 67% of the specific complaints."
