Abstract
Objective: To explore the application effect and value of characteristic traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) nursing techniques in the colorectal department in clinical practice, in order to provide references for improving the nursing quality of patients and promoting their rehabilitation. Method: The colorectal department of Hospital A began to implement characteristic TCM nursing techniques in January 2023. Therefore, 100 patients admitted to the colorectal department from September 2022 to December 2022 were set as the control group, and 100 patients admitted from January 2023 to April 2023 were taken as the experimental group. The experimental group adopted characteristic TCM nursing techniques, including comprehensive measures such as herbal enema therapy, TCM hip bath, acupoint massage and application, and emotional care; the control group adopted conventional Western medicine nursing methods. The application effect and value of characteristic TCM nursing techniques in the clinical practice of the colorectal department were evaluated by comparing indicators such as the frequency of use, the proportion of treated patients, the number of types, and patient satisfaction between the two groups. Result: After using the characteristic TCM nursing techniques, the recovery speed of the patients in the experimental group was significantly accelerated, and the incidence of complications was significantly reduced. Specifically, the average hospital stay of the patients in the experimental group was shortened by approximately 20% compared with the control group. At the same time, the pain score of the patients in the experimental group was also significantly lower than that of the control group. In addition, the satisfaction rate of the patients in the experimental group with the nursing service was as high as 95%, significantly higher than 80% of the control group. Conclusion: The application and practice of the characteristic TCM nursing techniques in the colorectal department have shown significant advantages in improving the recovery speed of patients and the quality of nursing services, and can be further promoted in clinical practice.
