Nursing Report on Combined Limb Rehabilitation and Auricular Acupressure for a Patient with Insomnia after Permanent Pacemaker Implantation
This article summarizes the rehabilitation nursing experience of a 74-year-old male patient who developed insomnia after permanent pacemaker implantation. On the basis of routine postoperative care, staged limb rehabilitation training was implemented from the second day after the operation, and at the same time, auricular point pressing with pills guided by the theory of Zi Wu Liu Zhu was carried out (twice a day, with the points Shenmen, Xin, and Cortical Subcortex selected). After 14 consecutive days of intervention, the patient's shoulder joint range of motion, sleep quality, anxiety, and self-care ability were significantly improved compared with those before the intervention, and no complications such as electrode dislocation or pocket hematoma occurred. The results show that this staged rehabilitation combined with timed auricular point intervention program can simultaneously improve limb function and sleep disorders in patients after pacemaker implantation, and is both safe and clinically feasible.
