Effect observation of self-designed cough relieving plaster for traditional Chinese medicine acupoint application on pediatric pneumonia
Objective:To explore the effect of self-designed cough relieving patch for traditional Chinese medicine acupoint application on children's pneumonia.Methods:A total of 72 children with bronchopneumonia admitted to Xinyu Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital from January 2020 to November 2022 were included,and divided into two groups with 36 cases with random number table method.The control group was treated with conventional western medicine such as anti-infection,cough relieving,expectorant,antipyretic,nebulized inhalation,etc.And on these bases the observation group was treated with self-designed cough relieving plaster for traditional Chinese medicine acupoint application treatment once a day,2-4 hours per time,5-7 days as a course of treatment.Both groups were treated for one course.The treatment effect,symptom improvement time,change of TCM syndrome score before and after treatment,and occurrence of adverse reactions(local skin congestion,redness,itching,rash,etc.)were compared between the two groups.Results:The total effective rate of treatment was 100.00%in the observation group,which was higher than that 88.89%in the control group(P<0.05).The disappearance times of fever,cough,asthma and lung rale in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the TCM syndrome score in the observation group was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the integrals of fever,cough,dyspnea,face redness and thirst,boredom and impatience,interlaryngeal phlegm and stridor,and dyspnea and nasal fan in the two groups were lower than those in the same groups before treatment(P<0.05)and the treatment group was lower than the control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion:The self-designed cough relieving plaster for traditional Chinese medicine acupoint application can improve the therapeutic effect of children with bronchopneumonia and promote the rehabilitation of children,which is worthy of clinical recommendation.
