Holographic Scraping Combined with Meridian Acupoint Massage in Treating Constipation After ERCP: A Nursing Case Report
This paper summarizes the nursing experience of holographic scraping combined with meridian acupoint massage in treating constipation in a patient after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Guided by the holographic theory, the patient received characteristic Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) nursing techniques, including holographic scraping, auricular acupressure, and meridian acupoint massage. Concurrently, dietary nursing, medication guidance, and rehabilitation instructions were provided throughout the treatment. These integrative interventions significantly improved the patient's postoperative gastrointestinal dysfunction, effectively relieved constipation and abdominal distension, and further enhanced sleep quality and overall quality of life.
