Abstract:
Objective To discuss the application effect of comprehensive traditional Chinese medical (TCM) nursing during knee osteoarthritis treatment.Methods One hundred and thirty-three hospitalized patients with knee osteoarthritis were randomly divided into observation group (75 cases) and control group (58 cases).The observation group received comprehensive TCM nursing including oral Chinese medicine,external-applied Chinese medicine,emotional adjustment,rehabilitation guidance and diet nursing,while the control group received conventional nursing methods.Health survey scales and bone rheumatism in “TCM diagnostic efficacy standards" were respectively used to evaluate the curative effect before and after the treatment.Results The scores in physical agility,metal influence,social activities,psychological health,physical influence,energy,pain and general health were obviously higher in the observation group than those in the control group after treatment [(76.22 ± 11.35) vs (67.62 ± 11.53),(54.22 ± 11.38) vs (48.73 ± 9.40),(77.49 ± 12.50) vs (65.22 ± 10.62),(68.33 ± 10.72) vs (60.31 ± 11.55),(42.53 ± 6.21) vs (37.41 ±8.05),(61.61 ±9.54) vs (50.27 ±5.62),(70.22 ± 10.08)vs (63.72 ±8.58),(66.95 ±9.31)vs (59.27 ±8.47)],and the differences were statistically significant (t =4.303 5,2.972 0,5.987 8,4.136 3,4.141 8,8.034 5,3.930 9,4.905 2 ;P ＜0.05).The successful rate according to the bone rheumatism in “TCM diagnostic efficacy standards" after treatment was higher in the observation group than in the control group (98.67％ vs 93.10％),but the difference was not statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Comprehensive TCM nursing can evidently increase the curative effect of patients with knee osteoarthritis,and improve their quality of life.
