Value of Auricular Point Pressing in Postoperative Pain Nursing Care of Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Under the Guidance of Nano-Probe

Abstract

This work aimed to investigate and analyse the application value of auricular point pressing (APP) in pain nursing care after laparoscopic cholecystectomy guided by nano-probe. In this study, 100 patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy guided by nanoprobes were selected. According to the difference in admission time and intervention measures, 100 patients meeting the inclusion criteria were enrolled into an observation group (n = 50) and a control group (n = 50). Then, patients as controls after surgery were treated with routine preventive nursing intervention measures, and patients for observation received APP on the basis of routine nursing. Anal exhaust time (AET), bowel sound recovery time (BSRT), incidence of abdominal distension, and clinical efficacy were compared. In addition, the degree of abdominal pain was evaluated at the 24th hour, 48th hour, and 72nd hour after surgery, as well as the degree of gastrointestinal reaction. There was no marked difference in the general data of patients from the two groups. The time of first exhaust defecation in the observation group was shorter (P <0.05), indicating that the exhaust effect was better. The differences in degree of abdominal pain in patients were statistically marked between the 24th and 48th hours and the 48th and 72nd hours (P <0.05), indicating that postoperative abdominal pain symptoms of both groups could be effectively improved. The degree of gastrointestinal reaction of patients showed obvious difference between the 24th and 48th hour and the 24th and 72nd hour (P <0.05). However, there was no huge difference in the degree of gastrointestinal reaction between 72 hours and 48 hours (P >0.05), suggesting that the gastrointestinal symptoms were improved after 48 hours. In conclusion, postoperative APP could effectively alleviate postoperative pain in patients.
