Abstract: Objective To explore the application effect of traditional Chinese medicine intervention method for promoting blood circulation and resolving blood stasis on patients with liver cirrhosis and malnutrition, as well as the impact of serum nutritional indicators. Methods A total of 82 patients with cirrhosis and malnutrition who were admitted to the Second People's Hospital of Gansu Province from June 2022 to March 2023 were selected as the study objects. They were divided into observation group and control group by random number table method, with 41 cases in each group. The control group received conventional treatment of cirrhosis and nutrition intervention, and the observation group was additionally given the traditional Chinese medicine intervention method to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. The liver function indexes, nutritional index expression levels and complications of the two groups before and after treatment were compared. Results There was no significant difference in the levels of Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), Glutamic pyruvic transaminase (ALT), Glutamic transaminase (AST) between the two groups of patients before treatment (P>0.05). After treatment, the levels of ALP, ALT, and AST in both groups of patients decreased, and the observation group was lower than the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the nutritional indicators related to Transferrin (TRF), Prealbumin (PAB), serum albumin (Alb) and hemoglobin (Hb) between the two groups of patients before treatment (P>0.05). After treatment, the levels of TRF, PAB, Alb, and Hb in the treatment two groups increased, and the observation group was higher than the control group (P<0.05). The incidence of complications such as hepatic encephalopathy, hepatorenal syndrome, gastrointestinal bleeding, and infection in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The traditional Chinese medicine intervention method of promoting blood circulation and resolving blood stasis can further improve liver function, enhance serum nutritional index levels, and reduce the incidence of complications in patients with liver cirrhosis and malnutrition. It is worthy of clinical application.
