A Case Report on Integrated Chinese-Western Emergency Treatment and Nursing of a Patient with Unattended Status Epilepticus
This article summarizes the nursing experience of a 23-year-old male patient with unattended status epilepticus treated through integrated Chinese and Western medicine. The patient presented with status epilepticus as the initial symptom and had no family accompaniment. The emergency team promptly initiated contingency protocols, providing life support, airway protection, sedative therapy, etiological investigation, and complication prevention. Concurrently, traditional Chinese acupressure was applied to promote consciousness recovery, targeting the Baihui (GV20), Shuigou (GV26), and Taichong (LR3) acupoints—known for their effects in calming the mind, awakening consciousness, and resolving phlegm-dizziness. Following intervention, the patient regained clear awareness, demonstrating significant therapeutic efficacy.
