Experience of Traditional Chinese Medicine External Therapy in Nursing a Patient with Post-Laparoscopic Appendectomy Abdominal Distension
This article summarizes the nursing experience of applying traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) retention enema in a patient with abdominal distension after laparoscopic appendectomy. Nursing assessment and syndrome differentiation were conducted based on the patient’s condition. The TCM retention enema was adopted as a nursing intervention, allowing the herbal solution to act on the intestinal mucosa. By leveraging the osmotic pressure gradient and solute concentration difference between the herbal solution and the blood in the mucosal capillaries, the therapy achieved effects of clearing heat from the bowels, regulating the middle energizer, alleviating abdominal distension, and improving patient comfort.
