Nursing Experience of Treating a Cholelithiasis Patient with Insomnia Using Gua Sha Combined with Auricular Acupressure Based on Holographic Theory
This article summarizes the nursing experience of applying Gua Sha (scraping therapy) combined with auricular acupressure based on holographic theory to treat a patient with cholelithiasis and comorbid insomnia. Under the guidance of holographic theory, the patient's symptoms, sleep quality, and psychological state were assessed, and integrated Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) nursing interventions were implemented alongside routine care. The results demonstrated significant improvement in insomnia and overall health status, highlighting the potential of this combined therapy in holistic patient management.
