A Stuty on the Treatment and Nursing Care of CIPN Patients With Traditional Chinese Medicine Hot Package

Sponsor: The Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine

Summary

The combination of platinum and taxane drugs has a chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) rate of 73% to 83%. Its symptoms can not only limit daily activities and cause a variety of accidental injuries, but also easily cause negative emotions and seriously affect the quality of life. Modern Western medicine lacks effective clinical intervention methods, and the treatment of acupuncture points with traditional Chinese medicine is simple to operate, easy to observe adverse reactions, and is suitable for continuous self-treatment outside the hospital after training, saving patients time to travel to and from the hospital, and high patient acceptance. Due to the similarity of the pathogenesis of some traditional Chinese and Western medicine in CIPN and the effectiveness of its application in patients with DPN, this study evaluated the effect of specific formulations of Chinese medicine on CIPN by comparing the degree of nerve damage between the following formulations of Chinese medicine hot packs in patients with platinum combined with paclitaxel chemotherapy and the control group.
