The two groups both received ordinary treatment(including healthcare guidance, emotional care, diet arrangement, and defecation nursing), while the observation group was additionally given Da Huang(Rheum Officinale) application at Shenque(CV 8) for 6 h each day. The therapeutic efficacy was evaluated after successive 3-day treatment. Results: After 3-day treatment, it took significantly less time for the observation group to conduct the first flatulence and defecation than for the control group(P〈0.05); the therapeutic efficacy of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group(P〈0.01).
