To explore the clinical effect of external application of Ban Xia Gan Jiang San (Powder of Pinellia tuber and dried ginger root) on acupoint Shenque for the treatment of gastrointestinal reactions caused by intravenous patient-controlled analgesia pump. A total of 240 patients who underwent surgery in our hospital from January 2019 to September 2020 were selected and randomly divided into a control group and a research group, 120 patients in each group. The control group received conventional treatment. The research group received external application of Ban Xia Gan Jiang San on acupoint Shenque. The clinical data of the two groups had no statistically significant differences (p>0.05) and the two groups were comparable. In terms of treatment effect, the research group had significantly better results than the control group and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). The external application of Ban Xia Gan Jiang San on acupoint Shenque can effectively reduce the incidence of gastrointestinal reactions caused by intravenous patient-controlled analgesia pump and it is worthy of application and promotion in clinical practice.
