Nursing of a patient with constipation due to gastrointestinal heat accumulation treated with acupoint massage combined with Five-Element music therapy (经穴推拿联合五音疗法治疗胃肠积热型便秘1例护理体会)

This article summarizes the clinical efficacy and nursing management in treating a patient with constipation due to gastrointestinal heat accumulation using acupoint massage combined with Five-Element music therapy, aiming to provide clinical reference for such treatments. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) syndrome differentiation-guided acupoint massage directly acts on meridians and acupoints, while Five-Element music therapy regulates visceral functions, enhances spleen and stomach transportation, and alleviates anxiety. The combination of these two methods addresses both symptoms and root causes, holistically regulating the body to unblock meridians, balance yin and yang, and promote intestinal peristalsis, effectively relieving constipation. Through syndrome differentiation-based treatment and meticulous nursing care, the patient achieved normal bowel movements by the 7th day and was discharged with full recovery by the 10th day, without recurrence of constipation.
