Abstract：Objective：To observe the clinical effect of auricular point pressing with beans combined with moxibustion for maintenance hemodialysis(MHD) complicated with constipation. Methods： A total of 84 cases of patients with MHD complicated with constipation were divided into the control group and the observation group according to the double- blind method，42 cases in each group. The control group was given routine nursing，and the observation group was additionally given auricular point pressing with beans combined with moxibustion based on the nursing of the control group. The scores of constipation and Short Form 36-item Health Survey(SF-36) before and after intervention and the clinical effect in the two groups were counted and compared. Results：The total effective rate was 95.24% in the observation group，higher than that of 73.81% in the control group， the difference being significant(P＜0.05). After intervention， the scores of defecation frequency， fecal character， defecation time， abdominal pain， abdominal distension， straining sensation and difficulty of defecation in the two groups were decreased when compared with those before intervention(P＜0.05)，and the above scores in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05). After intervention， the scores of general health，mental health，role-emotional，social function，vitality，physical function，body pain and role-physical in the two groups were increased when compared with those before intervention(P＜0.05)，and the above eight SF- 36 scores in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05). Conclusion：Auricular point pressing with beans combined with moxibustion for patients with MHD complicated with constipation can improve their constipation and quality of life.
