Nursing Report on Mechanical Sputum Drainage Combined with Acupoint Sticking Therapy for Treating Lung Cough with Wind-Heat Invading the Lung Pattern
As a critical modern respiratory therapy, mechanical sputum drainage utilizes physical vibrations to loosen and expel sputum, demonstrating extensive clinical utility in treating respiratory conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and pneumonia. Concurrently, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) nursing techniques—including acupoint sticking therapy, auricular plaster therapy, and cupping—facilitate sputum clearance by regulating meridians, enhancing qi-blood circulation, and boosting immune function. Integrating these approaches not only significantly improves sputum expulsion efficiency but also optimizes patient prognosis through holistic systemic regulation. This report details the nursing management of a patient with lung cough (wind-heat invading lung pattern) complicated by pulmonary consolidation, whose condition markedly improved following combined mechanical sputum drainage and acupoint application therapy.
