Basic nursing of traditional Chinese medicine: ordinary care-emotional nursing
Emotional nursing refers to observing and understanding the emotional changes of patients, mastering their psychological state, trying to prevent and eliminate the influence of bad emotions, so that patients can be in the best psychological state during the treatment process, which is conducive to the recovery of diseases.

Traditional Chinese medicine has long attached importance to people's spiritual activities and ideological changes. These factors were summarized as five ambitions in Su Wen's great theory of Yin and Yang, and later generations transformed the five ambitions into seven emotions. He Jun's exposition on treating the heart in A Treasure of Oriental Medicine shows that as a nurse, we should try our best to eliminate the emotional stimulation of patients such as nervousness, fear, anxiety, annoyance and anger, and help patients build confidence in overcoming the disease, so as to improve the treatment effect.

Emotional nursing principle

Sincere and considerate

Patients' emotional state and behavior are different from those of normal people, which often produce various psychological reactions, such as increased dependence, increased suspicion, abnormal subjective feeling, emotional excitability, instability, anxiety, fear and so on. At this time, there is an urgent need for medical staff to give care and warmth and put themselves in the patient's shoes. For example, in the article "Great Doctor Sincerity" in Sun Simiao's "Be Urgent", the famous doctor Fei said in the Qing Dynasty. All these show that doctors should be considerate of patients' feelings everywhere, care for patients with goodwill and take saving the world as their code of conduct.

care about others

It is pointed out in "Spiritual Pivot First, Rigid and Soft": "People are born rigid and soft, strong and weak, long and short, yin and yang." Because people have different constitutions, personalities, ages and genders, they will have different emotional responses to the same emotional stimuli.

Emotional nursing is based on the understanding of individual specificity, and emphasizes that patients should be treated differently according to their genetic endowment, gender and age, natural conditions, social environment, mental factors and other factors. From Xu Tailing's exposition in Qing Dynasty, it can be seen that the choice of different methods of emotional nursing mainly depends on the individual characteristics of patients and the types of diseases they suffer. Therefore, nursing should be aimed at different groups of people to reduce the psychological pressure of patients after illness, which is conducive to physical recovery.

Avoid stimulation

Quiet environment can not only make patients feel happy and comfortable, but also enable patients to get enough sleep and increase their diet, which is conducive to restoring health. On the contrary, noisy environment is not conducive to patients' rest, which will make patients feel flustered, fidgety, even shivering limbs, cold sweat and other symptoms.

Su Wentong, Qi Tianlun, Su Wenbilen and Ling Shu all know this.

If you really feel heartache, you can often have a heartache because you suddenly hear a voice; People with palpitations will be terrified by sudden shouting or sudden opening of the door; Insomnia is difficult to fall asleep with a little noise, so it is necessary to create a quiet environment for patients to recuperate. Nurses should restrain their words and deeds and strive to eliminate all factors that cause malignant stimulation to patients.

Specific measures:

We should do "four lightness" in our work, that is, speak lightly, walk lightly, close the door lightly and operate lightly.

For patients with real heartache and epilepsy, it should be arranged in a single room if possible.

According to the patient's specific condition, timely remind relatives and friends who visit the patient not to give unnecessary stimulation to the patient, and critically ill patients should try to refuse to visit.

Medical records should be strictly managed, and patients and their families should not be allowed to read them casually, so as not to increase the mental burden of patients.

The serious and minor patients should be placed separately. On the one hand, it is convenient for the treatment and nursing of patients with severe diseases, on the other hand, it avoids causing certain psychological burden to patients with mild diseases.
