A randomized controlled trial was conducted to compare the clinical efficacy of Fu's subcutaneous acupuncture and western medication in the treatment of gastrointestinal dysfunction after knee surgery under general anesthesia. The difference in clinical efficacy between the Fu's subcutaneous acupuncture group and the western medication group was analyzed, and the mechanism of Fu's subcutaneous acupuncture in the treatment of gastrointestinal dysfunction after general anesthesia was further explored. It was confirmed that Fu's subcutaneous acupuncture can effectively promote postoperative gastrointestinal motility and reduce postoperative gastrointestinal discomfort. It can shorten the recovery time of gastrointestinal function, improve the quality of life of patients during the perioperative period, and explore the improvement of postoperative complications and promote the postoperative rehabilitation of patients, which is worthy of clinical application.
