Case Report on Combined Therapy of Herbal Retention Enema and Oral Chinese Herbal Medicine for Serum Creatinine Reduction
This paper presents the nursing management of a 57-year-old female patient with chronic renal failure (CRF) of spleen-kidney qi deficiency with dampness-turbidity and blood stasis pattern. The patient was admitted with elevated serum creatinine for over 6 years, aggravated by foamy urine for 3 months. The treatment protocol integrated herbal retention enema (aimed at descending turbidity, replenishing qi, activating blood circulation, and promoting diuresis) with oral Chinese herbal medicine and Western symptomatic therapy. Key nursing interventions included standardized enema administration (posture, medicinal liquid temperature, and retention time control), oral medication guidance, dietary modification, and emotional support. After 6 days of intervention, the patient exhibited symptom relief and significant reduction in serum creatinine, demonstrating the clinical value of integrated Chinese-Western nursing in CRF management.
