Influence of Oral and External Therapy of Traditional Chinese Medicine to Recovery of Gastrointestinal after Abdominal Surgery
Objective: Discuss curative effect of addition and subtraction of Paiqi decoction taken orally combined with external application of Chinese medicine at navel to the recovery of gastrointestinal function and influence to levels of gastrin(GAS)
motilin(MTL) and vasoaetive intestinal peptide(VIP) after abdominal surgery. Method: One hundred and twenty-six patients with gastrointestinal dysfunction after abdominal surgery were randomly divided into western medicine group (62 cases) and Chinese medicine group (64 cases) by random number table.After the operation
both groups' patients received corresponding basic treatment.Patients in western medicine group received mosapride citrate tablets
5 mg/time
3 times/day
and taken orally.Patients in Chinese medicine group received addition and subtraction of Paiqi decoction combined with external application of Chinese medicine at navel.Course of treatment in two groups were both 7 days.After the operation
recovery time of gurgling sound
the first aerofluxus and defecation time were recorded. At the first
second
third
fifth and seventh day after the operation
scores of patients' main symptoms and signs were recorded.and at the first
second and third day after the operation
levels of GAS
MTL and VIP in blood were detected by radioimmunoassay. Result: After the operation
recovery time of gurgling sound
the first aerofluxus and defecation time in Chinese medicine group were all shorter than those in western medicine group(P<0.01).At the second day after operation
compared with the first day
scores of patients' main symptoms and signs in western medicine group increased(P<0.01)
and then decreased gradually.At the second to seventh day after operation
there was a decreasing trending of scores of patients' main symptoms and signs in Chinese medicine group(P<0.01)
and at the second
third
fifth and seventh day after the operation
those scores were lower than in western medicine group(P<0.01).At the second day after the operation
compared with the first day
levels of GAS and MTL in western medicine group were decreased
and level of VIP increased(P<0.01).At the third day after the operation
compared with the second day
levels of GAS and MTL in western medicine group were increased
and level of VIP decreased(P<0.01).At the second and third day after the operation
there was a increasing trending of levels of GAS and MTL in Chinese medicine group(P<0.01)
and at the second day after the operation
level of VIP increased
but there was no statistical significance from the differences.At the third day after the operation
level of VIP in Chinese medicine group decreased significantly(P<0.01).At the second and third day after the operation
levels of GAS and MTL in Chinese medicine group were higher than those in western medicine group
and level of VIP was lower than western medicine group(P<0.01).The excellent and good rate of gastrointestinal function in Chinese medicine group was 62.5% superior to 40.32% in western medicine group(P<0.05). Conclusion: Paiqi decoction combined with external application of Chinese medicine at navel can promote gastrointestinal function to recovery quickly
ameliorate symptoms and signs
its' mechanism of action may be related to improving levels of GAS and MTL and inhibiting level of VIP.
