摘要

目的 探究腕踝针联合中医食疗在普胸外科术后患者康复中的应用效果。方法 选取2023年1月-2025年1月本院收治的110例普胸外科术后患者进行研究，按照干预方式的不同分为对照组和观察组，每组55例。对照组采用常规术后护理干预，观察组在对照组基础上采用腕踝针联合中医食疗干预，比较两组患者的术后疼痛程度、胃肠功能恢复时间、住院时长及并发症发生情况。结果 观察组术后不同时间点的疼痛评分均低于对照组，胃肠功能恢复时间、住院时长均短于对照组，并发症发生率低于对照组（P<0.05）。结论 在普胸外科术后患者的康复过程中，应用腕踝针联合中医食疗干预，能有效减轻患者疼痛，促进胃肠功能恢复。

Abstract

Objective To explore the application effect of wrist and ankle acupuncture combined with traditional Chinese dietary therapy in the rehabilitation of patients after general thoracic surgery.
Methods A total of 110 patients after general thoracic surgery admitted to our hospital from January 2023 to January 2025 were selected for the study. They were divided into the control group and the observation group according to different intervention methods, with 55 cases in each group. The control group received conventional postoperative nursing intervention, while the observation group was treated with wrist-ankle acupuncture combined with traditional Chinese dietary therapy on the basis of the control group. The postoperative pain degree, recovery time of gastrointestinal function, length of hospital stay and occurrence of complications of the two groups were compared.
Results The pain scores of the observation group at different time points after the operation were lower than those of the control group. The recovery time of gastrointestinal function and the length of hospital stay in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group, and the incidence of complications was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05).
Conclusion   In the rehabilitation process of patients after general thoracic surgery, the application of wrist and ankle acupuncture combined with traditional Chinese dietary therapy intervention can effectively alleviate patients' pain and promote the recovery of gastrointestinal function.
