Study on Neostigmine Acupoint Injection at Zusanli(ST36) for Treating Mechanical Ventilation-Associated Gastrointestinal Dysfunction

torstai 2. heinäkuuta 2026 päivittänyt: Ling Liu, Southeast University, China

A Single-Center,Randomized Controlled Study on Neostigmine Acupoint Injection at Zusanli(ST36) for Treating Mechanical Ventilation-Associated Gastrointestinal Dysfunction

Mechanical ventilation is a common method of respiratory support for critically ill patients, and gastrointestinal dysfunction (GIDF) is a frequent complication. In the ICU, more than 60% of mechanically ventilated patients experience gastrointestinal dysfunction. Currently, the exact causes of mechanical ventilation-induced gastrointestinal dysfunction remain unclear, but they primarily include increased intra-abdominal pressure resulting from positive-pressure ventilation, which inhibits gastrointestinal motility; inflammatory responses, prolonged bed rest, electrolyte imbalances, and the use of sedatives, analgesics, and even muscle relaxants . Manifestations such as gastroparesis and constipation further lead to delayed gastric emptying, increased intra-abdominal pressure, and heightened risks of bacterial translocation, multiple organ failure, and ventilator-associated pneumonia. Primary Objective is to investigate, through a prospective randomized controlled trial, the efficacy of neostigmine injection at the Zusanli acupoint compared to Zusanli acupoint stimulation alone or subcutaneous neostigmine injection in improving gastrointestinal function in patients with mechanical ventilation and gastrointestinal dysfunction. Secondary objectives: (1)To evaluate the effects of acupoint injection of neostigmine on the duration of mechanical ventilation, enteral nutrition intake, and ICU length of stay in critically ill patients; (2)To assess the safety of acupoint injection of neostigmine.

Aseet ja interventiot

Osallistujaryhmä / Arm
Interventio / Hoito
Kokeellinen: neostigmine injection at the acupoints
On the basis of standard treatment, neostigmine was injected into the bilateral Zusanli (ST36) acupoints. The patient was placed in the supine position with knees flexed. Following routine local disinfection, a 5 mL disposable syringe was used to extract 0.5 mg of neostigmine for vertical subcutaneous needling and injection. Upon needle withdrawal, the puncture site was compressed with sterile cotton swabs for hemostasis. The identical procedure was applied to the contralateral Zusanli acupoint. The intervention period is 1 day, with interventions administered twice daily (bid), 12 hours apart.
Active Comparator: intramuscular injection of normal saline
On the basis of standard treatment, normal saline was injected into bilateral Zusanli (ST36) acupoints. The patient was placed in the supine position with knees flexed. After routine local disinfection, a 5 mL disposable syringe was used for vertical needle insertion, and an equal volume of normal saline was injected subcutaneously into each acupoint. Following injection, the needle was withdrawn, and the puncture site was compressed with sterile cotton swabs for hemostasis.The intervention period is 1 day, with interventions administered twice daily (bid), 12 hours apart.
Active Comparator: subcutaneous injection of neostigmine
On the basis of standard treatment, subcutaneous injection was performed at non-acupoint sites. A 5 mL disposable syringe was used to aspirate 1 mg of neostigmine injection for single-site injection. The injection site received routine disinfection beforehand. Following the injection, the needle was withdrawn, and the puncture site was compressed with sterile cotton swabs for hemostasis.The intervention period is 1 day, with interventions administered twice daily (bid), 12 hours apart.
