Observation on the intervention effect of multi-acupoint application combined with ear acupuncture on postoperative cesarean section
Objective To observe the intervention effect of multi-acupoint application combined with ear acupuncture on postoperative cesarean section. Methods 62 parturients undergoing cesarean section were selected and divided into combined intervention group and conventional intervention group according to different intervention methods,with 31 cases in each group. After surgery,the conventional intervention group received conventional intervention,and the combined intervention group received multi-acupoint application combined with ear acupuncture based on conventional intervention. Both groups were compared in terms of traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score,fundus height,lochia disappearance time,serum gastrin level,frequency of pain attack,duration of pain,pain level,comfort level,postoperative incision scar degree,activity of daily living ability,postpartum complications,gastrointestinal function recovery and hospitalization time. Results After the intervention,the belching score,anorexia score,bowel sound score,abdominal distension score,fundus height,resting pain score,dynamic pain score,contraction pain score,Vancouver scar scale (VSS) score,Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) score in the combined intervention group were lower than those in the conventional intervention group;the frequency of pain attack in the combined intervention group were less than that in the conventional intervention group;the serum gastrin level,Kolcaba's general comfort questionnaire (GCQ) score,modified Barthel index (MBI) score in the combined intervention group were higher than those in the conventional intervention group;and the lochia disappearance time and duration of pain in the combined intervention group were shorter than those in the conventional intervention group (P<0.05). The incidence of postpartum complications in the combined intervention group was 3.23%,which was lower than 25.81% in the conventional intervention group (P<0.05). In the combined intervention group,the recovery time of bowel sound was (13.86±2.35) h,the first anal exhaust time was (15.02±2.31) h,the first defecation time was (33.75±5.46) h,and the hospitalization time was(5.27±1.54) d,which were all shorter than (19.35±3.40) h,(22.75±3.44) h,(42.84±7.5) h,and (6.58±1.06) d in the conventional intervention group (P<0.05). Conclusion The combination of multi-acupoint application and ear acupuncture intervention after cesarean section has a good effect.
