Nursing Experience of Auricular Acupoint Pressure Combined with Chinese Herbal Acupoint Application in the Treatment of One Patient with Post-Stroke Insomnia
Post-stroke insomnia significantly impedes the recovery of neurological function in affected patients. In elderly patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis who concurrently present with multiple chronic conditions such as stroke, conventional sedative-hypnotic medications are generally unsuitable for insomnia management due to age-related decline in organ function. This paper summarizes the comprehensive nursing experience of one patient with stroke complicated by diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and chronic kidney disease requiring dialysis who suffered from insomnia. A tailored nursing care plan was developed for the patient, incorporating auricular acupoint pressure combined with Chinese herbal acupoint application as non-pharmacological interventions, alongside foundational nursing care and psychological counseling. After three consecutive months of standardized nursing interventions, the patient's sleep quality was markedly improved. This external Traditional Chinese Medicine approach demonstrates a favorable safety profile and is particularly suitable for elderly patients with compromised organ function, thereby providing a feasible practical paradigm for insomnia management in such clinically complex cases.
