Clinical Observation on Treating Cold Cough with Acupoint Application of Self-designed Wenfei Zhike Prescription
Objective To observe the clinical effect of acupoint application of self-designed Wenfei Zhike Prescription on cold cough.Methods A total of 104 patients with cold cough diagnosed and treated in the Department of Respiratory Medicine,Nanjing Liuhe District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2021 to December 2022 were selected and randomized into an observation group(n=52)and a control group(n=52).The control group received conventional Western medicine treatment,and the observation group received acupoint application of self-designed Wenfei Zhike Prescription on the basis of the therapy in the control group.Each course of treatment lasted for 5 days,and the patients were observed for 1～2 courses.The treatment results were compared between the two groups.Results The total response rate in the observation group was 94.23%,which was higher than that(76.92%)in the control group(P<0.05).The observation group had shorter time to alleviation of cough and expectoration,improvement of physical signs,and decrease of C-reactive protein(CRP)than the control group(P<0.05).The total incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was 5.77%,which was lower than that(19.23%)in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The acupoint application of self-prepared Wenfei Zhike Prescription demonstrates better therapeutic effect than Western medicine alone and shortens the treatment period and course of disease.This therapy is safe,economical,and simple and thus suitable for clinical application and promotion.
