Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Ironing therapy
Stir-fry 500 grams of Foeniculum vulgare seeds until the aroma overflows. Put them into a cotton bag. Ironing therapy put the bag on abdomen after the temperature is suitable, 30 minutes per time, 4 times daily from 12 hours after surgery and last for 2 days. The medicine bag can be heated and reused after it cool down.
Foeniculum Vulgare Seed Ironing
Stir-fry 500 grams of Foeniculum vulgare seeds until the aroma overflows. Put them into a cotton bag. Ironing therapy put the bag on abdomen after the temperature is suitable, 30 minutes per time, twice daily on postoperative days 2 to 3. The medicine bag can be heated and reused after it cool down.
