Nursing study on the effect of moxibustion at Zhiyin acupoint combined with ultrasound-guided breech cephalic version on the clinical outcome of pregnancy
Objective To explore the effect of moxibustion at Zhiyin acupoint combined with ultrasound-guided breech cephalic version on the clinical outcome of pregnancy.Methods A total of 60 singleton parturients in the third trimester of pregnancy who had regular prenatal examination and delivered in Ganzhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2022 to August 2023 were selected as the research objects.They were divided into control group(30 cases)and combined group(30 cases)by random number table method.The control group was intervened with routine nursing combined with ul-trasound-guided breech cephalic version,and the combined group was intervened with moxibustion at Zhiyin acupoint on the basis of the control group.The success rate of breech correction,delivery conditions,nursing service satisfaction and the related conditions of newborns were compared between the two groups.Results The success rate of breech correction in the combined group(76.67%)was higher than that in the control group(50.00%),and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).There was statistically significant difference in delivery conditions between the two groups(P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in neonatal weight and umbilical artery blood glucose between the two groups(P>0.05).The blood oxygen partial pressure and 1 min Apgar score of the combined group were higher than those of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The total satisfaction of nursing service in the control group and the combined group were 63.33%and 83.33%,respectively.There was no statistically significant difference in the total satisfaction of nursing service between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Moxibustion at Zhiyin acupoint combined with ultrasound-guided breech cephalic version can improve the success rate of breech correction and vaginal delivery,which has significant clinical application value and is worthy of promotion.
