Abstract:
Objective To investigate of the effects of ear acupoint with beans on acute urinary incontinence after transurethral plasma kinetic resection of the prostate (TUPK).Methods 78 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia undergoing TUPK were randomly divided into experimental group (n =40) and control group ( n =38 ).The experimental group was managed with ear acupoint with beans combined with levator ani muscle training,while the control group was only instructed with levator ani training.The occurrence rate of urinary incontinence and incontinence duration in both groups were observed and compared.Results The occurrence rate of urinary incontinence in the experimental group ( 15％ ) was obviously lower than that in the control group (42％) (x2 =7.07,P 0.05).Incontinence duration in the experimental group (2.0 ±0.5) days was obviously less than ( 4.1 ± 1.5 ) days in the control group ( x2 =2.84,P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusions Ear acupoint with beans combined with levator ani training after TUPK could effectively prevent postoperative acute urinary incontinence,shorten the duration,alleviate patients' psychological burden,and reduce postoperative complications.
