Improved Pressure Ulcer Nursing Combined with Traditional Chinese Medicine in Radical Gastrectomy: A Randomized
Purpose:
To explore the effect of improved pressure ulcer nursing combined with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in patients undergoing radical gastrectomy.
Methods:
A total of 102 patients undergoing radical gastrectomy from September 2016 to August 2019 were randomly divided into the control group (n = 54) and the study group (n = 48). The control group received improved pressure ulcer nursing, while the study group received TCM treatment (namely syndrome differentiation treatment) besides the improved pressure ulcer nursing.
Results:
No significant difference was found in general data between the two groups. The efficacy of the study group was significantly higher than that of the control group (79.17% vs 55.56, P = .012). The recovery of gastrointestinal function, anxiety, and depression in the study group was better than that in the control group (35.46±1.29 vs 47.21±2.43; 29.28±1.96 vs 38.93±2.05; all P < .05). The study group had a lower incidence of complications (χ2=6.00, P = .014) and a higher quality of life and satisfaction (χ2=17.66, P < .001) than the control group.
Conclusion:
In patients undergoing radical gastrectomy, improved pressure ulcer nursing combined with TCM treatment can reduce complications and improve quality of life.
