〔Abstract〕Objective To investigate the effects of reed tube moxibustion combined with childlike psychological induction on the negative psychology and hearing recovery of children with sudden deafness aged from 3 to 7 years. Methods A total of 75 children with sudden deafness aged from 3 to 7 who were admitted to Nanyang Central Hospital from March 2017 to September 2020 were selected and divided into control group (37 cases, 43 ears) and observation group (38 cases, 42 ears). The control group was given conventional drug treatment, and the observation group was added reed tube moxibustion and children's psychological induction intervention on the basis of the control group. The Spence children's anxiety scale (SCAS) score, pure tone hearing threshold and impaired frequency hearing threshold were observed before and after the intervention, as well as the clinical efficacy. Results There was no significant difference in the SCAS score of the children in the control group before and after treatment (P > 0.05). The SCAS score of the children in the observation group was lower than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). After treatment, the pure-tone hearing thresholds and impaired frequency hearing thresholds of the two groups of children decreased, and the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The total effective rate of children in the observation group was 100.00 %, which was higher than 86.05 % in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion Reed tube moxibustion combined with childlike psychological induction intervention can effectively relieve anxiety in children with sudden deafness aged from 3 to 7 years, improve their treatment cooperation and treatment security, and promote hearing recovery.
