Abstract

Objective

To observe the clinical efficacy of pressing-kneading manipulation combined with herb-insulated moxibustion at Shuidao (ST28) for postpartum urinary retention after labor analgesia and its effect on bladder urination function.

Methods

A total of 154 patients with postpartum urinary retention after labor analgesia were randomly divided into a Western medication group and a herb-insulated moxibustion group, with 77 cases in each group. In the Western medication group, neostigmine sulfate was injected into Zusanli (ST36). In the herb-insulated moxibustion group, after pressing-kneading manipulation at Shuidao (ST28), herb-insulated moxibustion was applied to Shuidao (ST28) with self-made Tong Quan San. Both groups were treated once, and the clinical efficacy was evaluated 5 h after treatment. The first urination time, first urination volume, average urinary flow rate, bladder residual urine volume, hospitalization days, and costs were recorded.

Results

The total effective rate and markedly effective rate of the herb-insulated moxibustion group were higher than those of the Western medication group (P<0.05), the time to the first urination and residual urine volume in the bladder of the herb-insulated moxibustion group were shorter or smaller than those of the Western medication group (P<0.01), the first urination volume and average urine flow rate of the herb-insulated moxibustion group were larger than those of the Western medication group (P<0.01). There were no significant differences in the hospitalization days and costs between the two groups (P>0.05).

Conclusion

Pressing-kneading manipulation combined with herb-insulated moxibustion at Shuidao (ST28) can effectively treat postpartum urinary retention after labor analgesia and improve bladder urination function.
