Nursing Case Report on the Treatment of Antibiotic-Associated Diarrhea in an Elderly Patient with Severe Pneumonia Based on the Midnight-Noon Ebb-Flow Theory
This article summarizes the clinical practice experience of managing antibiotic-associated diarrhea in an elderly patient with severe pneumonia through intervention guided by the Midnight-Noon Ebb-Flow theory. Grounded in the core principle of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome differentiation and treatment, and based on the theoretical foundation of "harmony between heaven and humanity" inherent in the Midnight-Noon Ebb-Flow theory, a clear disease diagnosis and intervention objectives were established under the guidance of TCM syndrome differentiation-based nursing on the basis of conventional treatment and nursing care. A therapeutic protocol combining acupoint application with ginger-separated moxibustion was implemented. The results demonstrated that the intervention effectively improved the patient's clinical symptoms, reduced the frequency of diarrheal episodes, alleviated the systemic inflammatory response, and enhanced the patient's quality of life.
