Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical effects of auricular plaster therapy combined with acupoint application on preventing postpartum retention of urine. Methods From June 2016 to October 2016, we selected 240 puerpera with full-term pregnancy of Department of Gynaecology and Obstetrics in Hangzhou Red Cross Hospital by random sampling. All of the patients were divided into four groups by the random number table, 60 cases in each group. Patients in control group were treated with routine postpartum care. In this basis, patients in auricular plaster therapy group accepted auricular plaster therapy, patients in acupoint application group accepted acupoint application therapy, patients in auricular plaster therapy & acupoint application group were treated with auricular plaster therapy and acupoint application therapy. Finally, the time of the first micturition, bladder residual urine volume (RUV) and clinical effects of puerpera were compared in four groups. Results The time of the first micturition in auricular plaster therapy & acupoint application group (combined group), auricular plaster therapy group, acupoint application group and control group was (2.45±0.51), (4.28±1.23), (4.25±1.15) and (5.60±1.75) h respectively with significant differences (F= 65.207, P<0.001). The bladder RUV of auricular plaster therapy & acupoint application group was (52.10±12.51) ml less than those of other three groups. The total effective rate of auricular plaster therapy & acupoint application group was 100.00% high than that of other three groups with a significant difference (χ2=179.770, P<0.001). Compared with control group, the time of the first micturition in auricular plaster therapy & acupoint application group was shorter, the bladder RUV was all less, the total effective rate was higher with significant differences (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between auricular plaster therapy group and acupoint application group (P>0.05). Conclusions The auricular plaster therapy combined with acupoint application can effectively prevent postpartum retention of urine which is worth to be spread.
