Observations on the effect of Danshen on gastrointestinal function and nutritional proteins after laparoscopic surgery

Recurrent vomiting and sleep disturbance are typical postoperative complications of laparoscopic surgery, how to improve the postoperative gastrointestinal function of patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery is one of the key links to ensure their recovery. In this study, we looked at the effect of danshen acupressure on the postoperative recovery of patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery. For this purpose, we included 105 study subjects, all patients received information-motivation-behavioral skills (IMB) model-based care, of which 51 patients did not receive danshen treatment and were considered as a control group, another 54 patients were treated with danshen and considered as the research group. Comparison of gastrointestinal function between the two groups and nutritional status, psychological status, etc., we found that the gastrointestinal function of the research group recovered better and gastrin (GAS) and motilin (MTL) were lower than those of the control group (P<0.05). Meanwhile, the psychological status of the research group was also better than that of the control group and the level of nutritional protein was higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). Through the prognostic follow-up, we also found a better prognostic quality of life in the research group.
