Abstract

Objective To investigate the effect of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) acupoint application in relief of symptoms in patients with peripheral deep venous thrombosis of the lower extremity (LEDVT). Methods Totally 60 patients with peripheral LEDVT were divided into the control group and study group, with 30 cases in each group. The control group received the routine treatment and nursing, and the study group received TCM acupoint application on the basis of routine treatment and nursing. The changes of edema degree, leg circumference and pain degree in the two groups were observed. Results Better outcomes of pain relief and edema regression were observed in the study group than those in the control group after treatment(P＜0. 05). There was no significant difference in lower limb circumferences between two groups after treatment(P＞0. 05). Conclusion TCM acupoint application is safe and effective in relief of symptoms in patients with peripheral LEDVT.
