Progress of clinical research on acupuncture treatment of gastrointestinal dysfunction after cesarean section
Due to many factors such as anesthesia and surgical trauma,gastrointestinal dysfunction is one of the most common complications after cesarean section.Gastrointestinal dysfunction after cesarean section has certain adverse impacts on early recovery of parturient women and newborns,therefore,early recovery of gastrointestinal function is particularly important.The author read the literature on the application of traditional Chinese medicine technology in the treatment of perioperative gastrointestinal dysfunction after cesarean section in recent years,and found that acupuncture and moxibustion as the main treatment method showed cer-tain efficacy,and no obvious adverse reactions were found.There are many kinds of acupuncture treatment,which can be used in combi-nation with Western medicine as well as traditional Chinese medicine.At present,the main acupuncture and moxibustion methods include body point therapy(acupuncture therapy,electroacupuncture therapy,transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation,acupoint application,acupoint massage,acupoint injection,acupoint embedding,moxibustion therapy,etc.),and auricular point therapy(auricular point pressure,auricular acupuncture therapy,etc.),or a combination of various methods,all of which have their unique advantages.At the same time,the author finds that Zusanli acupoints(ST36)have the functions of dredging meridians and collaterals,regulating Qi(气)and blood,restor-ing the function of Zang-fu organs(脏腑)and harmonizing Yin(阴)and Yang(阳),which can promote the recovery of gastrointestinal function after surgery.Therefore,when the acupuncture points are selected,Zusanli acupoint is mainly used or combined with other acu-points.Moreover,acupuncture and moxibustion has the unique advantages of simple operation,little toxic and side effects,and high safety in the treatment of gastrointestinal dysfunction after cesarean section,which shows a broad application prospect in this field.The article reviews the clinical research of acupuncture and moxibustion in the treatment of gastrointestinal dysfunction after cesarean section.
