Danini-Aschner Reception

The Dagnini-Aschner maneuver is an examination method named after the Italian physician Giuseppe Dagnini (1866-1928) and the Austrian gynecologist Wilhelm Aschner (1883-1960).

This technique is used to study the sensitivity of the cervix. During the procedure, the doctor touches the cervix with a special probe, observing the patient's reaction. If touching causes pain, this may indicate inflammation or other pathology of the cervix.

The Danini-Aschner technique was widely used in gynecological practice in the first half of the 20th century. Today it is used less frequently, as more modern methods for diagnosing cervical diseases, such as colposcopy, have become available. However, this non-invasive technique can still be useful during a gynecological examination.

**Danyini Aschner maneuver** is a method of providing assistance in case of emergency hypotension (low blood pressure). This method is based on the use of external massage, which improves blood flow to the heart and brain. This technique was invented by two doctors: Giovanni Dagnini, an Italian doctor, and Wilhelm Aschner, an Austrian gynecologist.

The method is extremely simple. It consists of the patient placing his hand on the abdomen below the diaphragm and pressing on it or bringing his fingers to his mouth and asking the patient to exhale sharply, after which the doctor begins to press with medium intensity in a circular motion while the patient takes a deep breath. After a deep exhalation, the patient should slowly begin to increase their breathing, and the doctor continues to press on the abdomen in the same place until the patient's breathing becomes even. During this appointment, the patient's pulse quickens, blood pressure increases, and vision becomes clearer.
