Nursing Experience of Ginger-Separated Moxibustion at the Umbilicus Combined with Chinese Herbal Packs in Treating Edema in a Patient with Congestive Heart Failure: A Case Report
This article summarizes the nursing experience of applying ginger-separated moxibustion at the umbilicus combined with Chinese herbal packs in a patient with edema induced by congestive heart failure (CHF). On the basis of conventional dietary and emotional nursing care, an individualized nursing plan was developed through edema assessment combined with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) syndrome differentiation and nursing. Guided by the theory of "nourishing yang in spring and summer, and nourishing yin in autumn and winter," the characteristic TCM techniques of ginger-separated moxibustion at the umbilicus combined with Chinese herbal packs were adopted to achieve the effects of replenishing qi, warming yang, promoting blood circulation, and removing water retention. The intervention effectively improved the patient's clinical symptoms and quality of life, achieving favorable nursing outcomes.
