Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effect of acupuncture at Yin Wei point on postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV)in female patients undergoing abdominal surgery.The clinical efficacy of postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV)and its impact on gut microbiota.Methods This study included 184 patients who underwent gynecological laparoscopic surgery in Jinhua Central Hospital from January 2021 to April 2024.They were randomly divided into control group(n=93)and acupuncture group(n=91)using a random number method.At the completion of surgery,the control group received intravenous injection of 5mg of tropisetron hydrochloride.In acupuncture group,on the basis of control group,intervention was performed by needling the palmar Yin Wei points of both forearms for 30 minutes before surgery.The incidence and severity of PONV were compared between two groups of patients.In addition,fecal samples were collected from two groups of patients before and after surgery,and differential analysis of gut microbiota community structure was performed using 16S amplicon absolute quantitative sequencing technology.Results In the 0-24 hours after surgery,40 cases of the acupuncture group and 56 cases of control group experienced PONV.The acupuncture group's PONV incidence was lower than control group's(P＜0.05).The nausea severity of acupuncture group after surgery was significantly lower than that of control groups.The proportion of patients taking antiemetic drugs after surgery in acupuncture group was also significantly lower than that in control group(P＜0.05).Before surgery,the two groups have no significant difference regarding Chao1,ACE,Shannon,and Simpson indices(P＞0.05).After surgery,the acupuncture group's Chao1,ACE,and Shannon indices were significantly higher than control group's(P＜0.05).The Simpson scores of two groups of patients were compared after surgery,and no significant difference was found(P＞0.05).The Observed,Chao1,ACE,and Shannon indices were significantly higher in the acupuncture group after surgery than before(P＜0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions in acupuncture group and control group were 8.8％and 8.6％,respectively,and there was no statistical significance(P＞0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture at Yin Wei point combined with intravenous injection of tropisetron can reduce the incidence of PONV in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery.
