Abstract:Objective To observe the intervention effect of bamboo circle salt-partitioned moxibustion at Shenque point on epigastric pain of spleen stomach deficiency cold type, and to evaluate its safety and effectiveness. Methods From October 2018 to May 2019, 60 patients with epigastric pain of spleen stomach deficiency cold type in Jiangsu Hospital of Chinese Medicine were selected as the research objects and divided into intervention group and control group randomly (n=30, each). The control group was treated with electronic moxibustion, and the intervention group was treated with bamboo circle salt-partitioned moxibustion. The epigastric pain score, TCM syndrome score, TCM syndrome curative effect and operation satisfaction of the two groups before and after treatment were compared and analyzed. Results The scores of epigastric pains and TCM syndromes of gastrointestinal diseases in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group on the 7th, 13th day and discharge (P<0.05, P<0.01). The curative effect of TCM syndrome and satisfaction with operation in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.01, P<0.05). Conclusion Compared with electronic moxibustion, bamboo circle salt-partitioned moxibustion at Shenque point has better curative effect and higher patient satisfaction.
