Nursing Report of Salt-isolation Moxibustion Combined with Bian-stone Therapy in Improving Malignant Incomplete Intestinal Obstruction: A Case Report
This article summarizes the intervention effects and nursing experience of applying salt-isolation moxibustion combined with bian-stone therapy for a patient with advanced pancreatic cancer complicated by peritoneal metastasis who developed incomplete intestinal obstruction. The patient was admitted for periodic chemotherapy, and on the day of chemotherapy, X-ray examination was performed due to abdominal distension and difficulty in defecation, confirming the diagnosis of incomplete intestinal obstruction. Based on pattern differentiation, the therapeutic principles of warming yang, promoting qi movement, and unblocking the fu organs to direct counterflow downward were adopted. Combined with dietary guidance and standardized nursing care, the patient's incomplete intestinal obstruction was completely relieved and quality of life was improved. This case may provide a reference for the clinical Traditional Chinese Medicine nursing practice of malignant incomplete intestinal obstruction.
