Abstract
|
|
|
Cancer has become major cancers which cause nausea, vomiting. We wanted to compare nausea, vomiting improvement with treatment including Sa-Gwan, Chok-Samli Acupuncture and metoclopramide HCl injection simultaneously or seperately. Under the assumption that acupuncture therapy may be effective for treating nausea, vomiting on Gastric Cancer patient(post status of total gastrectomy), the following points were administered Sa-Gwan (Hap-Kok(LI4), Tae-Chung(Liv3)), Chok-Samli(ST36), also metoclopramide HCl injection was given to treat same symptom like that. This study was carried out on 1 patient with Gastric Cancer. We reviewed medical records, especially intake/output check with vomiting, nausea symptom. After treatment of Sa-Gwan, Chok-Samli Acupunture and metoclopramide HCl injection, a remarkable improvement was made for nausea, vomiting even though a patient was operated in total gastrectomy.
We have concluded Sa-Gwan, Chok-Samli acupunture treatment palliated and improved the frequency, intensity of nausea, vomiting in patient who has suffered from terminal stage Gastric Cancer who was even operated in total gastrectomy. Comparing simultaneous acupucture and metocloprimide injection treatment with separate treatment .simultaneous treatment was more effective than separate treatment to palliate nausea, vomiting on Gastric Cancer patient.
