Methods: 100 parturients who underwent caesarean section with acupuncture point massage and exhaust exercise were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the observation group. The control group received routine nursing while the observation group received nursing intervention. The nursing quality of the parturients in both groups was counted. Results: the nursing quality of parturients in the observation group was better than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: abdominal distension will occur after caesarean section. Therefore, post-operative acupuncture point massage exercise should be performed clinically to reduce flatulence of parturients undergoing caesarean section, improve gastrointestinal function of parturients undergoing caesarean section, maintain intestinal peristalsis of parturients undergoing caesarean section, restore normal indexes of the body, and promote anal exhaust. High-quality nursing is indispensable during the implementation of acupuncture point massage exhaust exercise. The exploration of cesarean section parturient exhaust exercise, combined with the basic actual situation of cesarean section parturient, conforms to the cesarean section parturients own condition, formulates effective nursing policy for cesarean section parturient. During the period of acupuncture point nursing for cesarean section parturient, continuous education should be given to enable them to cooperate with the nursing work and improve the details of clinical nursing by combining with the specific opinions of cesarean section parturient on the nursing work, which has high clinical practicality.展开更多
