Abstract
Ginger moxibustion is characterized by performing easily, activating local blood circulation, warming meridian and unblocking collateral obviously.In order to observe the therapeutic effects of ginger moxibustion for local swelling and pain after COVID-19vaccines, 36 cases were randomly divided into 2 groups, of whom 18 were treated with ginger moxibustion and 18 treated with hot compress. The results showed a cure rate of 100% with a total effective rate of 100% in the ginger moxibustion group, while 27.8% and 44.4% respectively in the hot compress group. The comparisons between the two groups in the cure rate and the total effective rate showed significant differences (P
期刊介绍:
The Australian Journal of Advanced Nursing publishes a wide variety of original research, review articles, practice guidelines, and commentary relevant to nursing and midwifery practice, health- maternity- and aged- care delivery, public health, healthcare policy and funding, nursing and midwifery education, regulation, management, economics, ethics, and research methodology. Further, the journal publishes personal narratives that convey the art and spirit of nursing and midwifery.
As the official peer-reviewed journal of the ANMF, AJAN is dedicated to publishing and showcasing scholarly material of principal relevance to national nursing and midwifery professional, clinical, research, education, management, and policy audiences. Beyond AJAN’s primarily national focus, manuscripts with regional and international scope are also welcome where their contribution to knowledge and debate on key issues for nursing, midwifery, and healthcare more broadly are significant.
