Nursing Experience of Chinese Herbal Application Combined with Bian Stone Therapy in Improving Abdominal Distension and Constipation in an Elderly Patient with Gastric Distension Disorder: A Case Report
This paper summarizes the nursing experience of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine (TCM-WM) applied to an elderly patient with gastric distension disorder diagnosed with the syndrome of spleen deficiency and qi stagnation, who received Chinese herbal application combined with Bian stone therapy. Quantitative assessments were performed using the Traditional Chinese Medicine Epigastric Fullness Symptom Rating Scale, the Elderly Constipation Symptom Rating Scale, and the Elderly Anorexia Rating Scale. Standardized TCM external treatment procedures, dietary nursing, safety nursing, and management of underlying diseases were implemented throughout the intervention. The patient's symptoms were significantly alleviated after 2 days of intervention, and basically returned to normal after 1 week. The findings suggest that Chinese herbal application combined with Bian stone therapy can effectively improve gastrointestinal dysfunction in elderly patients with the syndrome of spleen deficiency and qi stagnation. This combined therapy is characterized by simple operation and high patient compliance, making it particularly suitable for elderly patients with multiple comorbidities, and therefore worthy of broader promotion in the field of integrated TCM-WM nursing.
