Acupoint injection Zusanli to relieve pain! Combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine shortens labor schedule by 1-2 hours
In recent years, the combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine has become more and more widely used in the field of obstetrics and gynecology, especially the acupuncture injection technology has achieved remarkable results in reducing labor pain and shortening labor. Among the popular topics on the Internet in the past 10 days, the discussion on "Zusanli acupoint injection to relieve pain" has remained high, and many medical institutions and experts have shared relevant clinical data and cases. This article will introduce this innovative technology in detail with structured data.
1. Clinical data on shortening labor through combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine
According to the clinical trial results of many hospitals, acupuncture injection of Zusanli can effectively reduce the pain of the mother and shorten the labor process by 1-2 hours. Here is a summary of some clinical data:
| Hospital name | Sample size | Pain relief rate | Shorten the labor time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital | 120 cases | 85% | 1.5 hours |
| Shanghai Hongfang Hospital | 150 cases | 78% | 1.2 hours |
| Guangzhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital | 100 cases | 82% | 1.8 hours |
2. Principles of Zusanli acupoint injection
Zusanli is an important acupoint in traditional Chinese medicine meridians, located on the anterior and exterior side of the calf, 3 inches below the calf point. Modern medical research shows that stimulating Zusanli can promote the release of endorphins, thereby playing analgesic effects. Acupoint injection is to inject a small amount of drugs (such as vitamin B1 or normal saline) into the acupoints, and achieve better results through the dual effects of drugs and acupuncture.
3. Operation process and precautions
1.Operation process:
(1) After the mother enters the active period (the cervix is more than 3cm wide) starts the operation
(2) Accurately locate Zusanli acupoints
(3) Injection with a fine needle after disinfection
(4) Observe the maternal reaction after injection
2.Notes:
(1) Must be operated by a professional physician
(2) Strictly sterile operation
(3) Pay attention to individual differences
(4) Cooperate with other labor analgesic methods
4. Real feedback from the mother
| Maternal age | Delivery method | Pain Score (Previous/Post) | Manufacturing time |
|---|---|---|---|
| 28 years old | Natural childbirth | 8 points/4 points | 6 hours |
| 32 years old | Natural childbirth | 9 points/5 points | 7.5 hours |
| 25 years old | Natural childbirth | 7 points/3 points | 5 hours |
5. Expert opinion
Professor Wang from Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine said: "The application of integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine in obstetrics is broad. Zusanli acupoint injection can not only relieve pain, but also regulate uterine contraction. This is an advantage that simple Western medicine analgesic methods do not have."
Director Li of Shanghai Jiaotong University Affiliated Hospital pointed out: "Our clinical observations show that postpartum women with acupoint injections recover faster after childbirth and have fewer complications, which provides a new option for obstetric analgesia."
6. Future development trends
1. More hospitals will carry out analgesic projects for the combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine
2. Acupoint injection technology will be gradually standardized
3. More acupoint combination schemes may appear
4. Telemedicine may be used for acupoint injection guidance
The integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine has brought new breakthroughs to obstetric medicine. Zusanli acupoint injection, as a safe and effective pain relief method, is changing the traditional delivery experience, allowing more women to enjoy a more comfortable and faster delivery process. With the deepening of research and the improvement of technology, this method is expected to become one of the conventional treatment methods in obstetrics.
