Objective To observe the clinical effect of traditional Chinese medicine nursing combined with comprehensive rehabilitation training and routine rehabilitation nursing on children with mental retarda- tion by moxibustion with aconite. Methods A total of 120 children with mental retardation diagnosed in the outpatient department or in the hospital from February to December, 2022 were selected and divided into the observation group and the control group, with 60 cases in each group. The control group was given comprehensive rehabilitation training and routine rehabilitation nursing, while the observation group was given tradition- al Chinese medicine nursing on Baihui point with aconite moxibustion on the basis of the control group. To observe the changes of development quotient(DQ) of each energy area of Gesell Intelligence Development Diagnostic Scale(GDS) and the scores of children's comprehensive function evaluation scale before and after treatment, as well as the clinical efficacy. Results After treatment, the DQ of each energy area of GDS was improved in both groups. The scores of adaptive behavior, large exercise, fine movements, language and personal- social behavior in the observation group were(67.92±11.69),(61.88±13.20),(63.50±13.20),(57.35± 11.91),(57.87±11.89) points respectively. All the scores were higher than those of the control group (46.70±18.15),(49.85±17.78),(48.25±16.69),(37.78±13.46),(42.35±14.20) points, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The scores of all items in the children's comprehensive function evaluation table had been improved. The scores of cognitive function, speech function, sports ability, self-care action and social adaptation in the observation group were (10.98±3.61), (12.12±4.08),(18.81±5.42), (11.83±6.03),(8,87±3.14) points respectively. All the scores were higher than those of the control group (5.29±1.65),(6,58±3.20),(15.30±5.42), (5.11±4.09), (6.11±1.79) points, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The total effective rate of GDS in the observation group [91.7%(55/60)] was higher than that in the control group [76.7%(46/60)],and the total effective rate of children's comprehensive function evaluation [93.3%(56/60)] was also better than that in the control group [80.0%(48/60)], with statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion Moxibustion of Baihui point with aconite root combined with comprehensive rehabilitation training and routine rehabilitation nursing is effective in treating mental retardation.
