Moxibustion Therapy at CV4 Prevents Postoperative Dysuria after Procedure for Prolapse and Hemorrhoids

الملخص EN

Objective.

To explore the intervention methods of the patients with dysuria after performing the procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (PPH).

Methods.

100 cases with hemorrhoids were randomly divided into experimental and control groups.

The control group received routine nursing care.

As comparison, the experimental group, on the basis of conventional care, was treated with moxa roll moxibustion 1 hour after the operation for 30 minutes.

The autonomous urination within 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, and 8 h after operation and the catheterization rate 8 h after operation of two groups of patients were observed.

Results.

The median time of autonomous urination of control group (8 h) was significantly greater than that of the experimental group (6 h) (P<0.001).

Cox regression analysis showed that the moxibustion therapy was positively correlated with automatic micturition in the patients after PPH.

The probability of automatic micturition in the experimental group was 2.032 times that in the control group (RR = 2.032, 95% CI: 1.278~3.230).

The catheterization rate of control group (38%) was significantly higher than that of the experimental group (10%) (P<0.001).

Conclusion.

The Guanyuan acupoint moxibustion can prevent dysuria after PPH and reduce the urethral catheterization.
