Nursing Experience of a Case of Post-stroke Qi Deficiency Constipation Improved by Fire Dragon Canister Combined with Auricular Point Pressing Therapy
This article summarizes the nursing experience of a case in which Fire Dragon Cupping combined with auricular acupoint pressing was used to improve post-stroke constipation of qi deficiency type. Through Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) assessments such as the four diagnostic methods (inspection, auscultation and olfaction, inquiry, and palpation) and eight-principle syndrome differentiation, the patient was treated with TCM nursing techniques—Fire Dragon Cupping and auricular acupoint pressing—in addition to routine care. These interventions aimed to regulate visceral functions, strengthen the spleen and lungs, promote smooth circulation, and harmonize qi and stomach function, effectively alleviating constipation caused by qi deficiency-induced intestinal dysmotility. Additionally, the patient's anxiety was relieved, which played a positive role in promoting recovery.
