Abstract

Objective
To observe the clinical effects of tuina plus hot compress for infantile diarrhea due to spleen-kidney yang deficiency.

Methods
One hundred cases were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group, 50 cases in each group. The treatment group was treated with tuina plus hot compress. The control group was treated with oral administration of Live Combined Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus and Enterococcus powder (Bifico). The clinical effects were observed after 5-day intervention.

Results
The total effective rate was 94.0% in the treatment group and was 66.0% in the control group. The difference in the total effective rate between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). The clinical effect was better in the treatment group than that in the control group.

Conclusion
Tuina plus hot compress for infantile diarrhea due to spleen-kidney yang deficiency can produce a better clinical effect than oral administration of Bifico.
