Brief summary (registry, in English)
This is a retrospective cohort study using a paired control design. We will review the patients of PUR after cervical cancer surgery who went to the acupuncture department and the urinary retention department in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from October 2020 to August 2024, and 73 patients met the screening criteria. All patients provided written informed consent. The purpose of the study is to compare the effect of acupuncture at different combinations of acupoints for postoperative urinary retention (PUR) after radical hysterectomy of cervical cancer. All outcome-measures data were obtained from past medical records. It is an observational study rather than an intervention study. 73 patients met the screening criteria. They will be assigned into two groups according to the treatment scheme of acupoints combination for acupuncture: Group A (37 cases) and Group B (36 cases).
