ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To search for a better therapy for early postoperative inflammatory small bowel obstruction (EPISBO).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Two hundred and forty cases were divided into four groups according to admitting order, 60 cases in each group. Routine treatments in western medicine were used in group A including gastrointestinal decompression, parenteral nutrition, anti-infection, supportive therapy and so on. Group B was treated with electroacupuncture in Zusanli (ST 36), Shangjuxu (ST 37) etc. in addition to those given in group A. Group C was treated with acupoint injection with Neostigmine in Dachangshu (BL 25), Zusanli (ST 36) etc. in addition to the treatment used in group A. Group D was treated with all of the treatments used in group A, B and C.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The total effective rate was 93. 3% in group A, 96. 7% in group B, 100.0% in group C and group D. There was no significant difference among the four groups (P>0. 05). The average recovery time of bowel sound was (11. 512. 9) days in group A, (9. 3 +/- 2.5) days in group B, (5.6 +/- 3.5) days in group C and (2. 2 +/- 1.7) days in group D.
