Nursing Report on Acupoint Application Therapy for a Case of Stable Angina Pectoris
Cardiovascular diseases have maintained a high incidence among the elderly population, particularly stable angina pectoris, which is categorized as "chest obstruction and heart pain" in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). TCM often employs acupoint application therapy, where medicinal agents permeate and stimulate specific acupoints to treat cardiovascular conditions. This study analyzes a case of an elderly patient with stable angina pectoris presenting with "intermittent chest tightness and palpitations for over 6 years, aggravated for 2 days." It explores the principles of acupoint selection for stable angina pectoris complicated by cough, observes clinical changes post-treatment, and summarizes nursing experiences for elderly patients with chest tightness. The findings aim to enhance the clinical efficacy of acupoint application therapy for stable angina pectoris and further leverage the role of TCM external treatments.
