Abstract：Objective To explore the effect of auricular point pressing (hereinafter referred to as “ear patch”) on perioperative pain of retinal detachment (RD). Methods A total of 64 cases of RD were diagnosed in the Department of Ophthalmology, Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from March to December 2018, and they were divided into the experimental group and the control group according to the random number table method, with 32 cases in each group. The control group was given routine analgesia and nursing, while the experimental group was given ear stickers 1 d before surgery on the basis of the control group, and the ear points were pressed once before, during and after 1 h. The changes of Visual analogue scale (VAS) score, short-form of McGill pain questionnaire (SF-MPQ) score, blood pressure and heart rate during the perioperative period were observed in the two groups. Results Postoperative and intraoperative VAS scores and SF-MPQ scores of the two groups were higher than those before operation, while the experimental group was lower than the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05). The intraoperative systolic blood pressure was higher than preoperative, postoperatively lower than preoperative, and the experimental group was lower than the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05). The intraoperative and postoperative heart rate was lower than before operation, while the experimental group was lower than the control group after operation, and the differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05). There were interactions between VAS score, SF-MPQ score, systolic blood pressure, heart rate in time and groups (P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion Ear patch can relieve perioperative pain in RD patients, maintain blood pressure and heart rate relatively stable, and improve quality of life of patients during perioperative.
