Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of intradermal needle plus acupoint application with Da Huang (Radix et Rhizoma Rhei) in preventing constipation after craniocerebral injury. Method Two hundred patients with acute craniocerebral injury were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 100 cases each. The control group received conventional nursing care to prevent constipation, while the treatment group was additionally treated with intradermal needle plus acupoint application with Da Huang (Radix et Rhizoma Rhei). The occurrence of constipation within a week was observed in the two groups. Result The occurrence rate of constipation was 12.0％ in the treatment group versus 32.0％ in the control group, and the between-group difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Intradermal needle plus acupoint application can effectively reduce the frequency of constipation in patients with acute craniocerebral injury.
