ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of nursing intervention on preoperative anxiety of patients with gynecological carcinoma.Methods 60 patients with gynecological carcinoma in our hospital who were to receive operations were randomly distributed into the control group and the intervention group with 30 in each group.The control group was given routine nursing,while the intervention group received nursing intervention based upon routine nursing.Indexes such as preoperative anxiety,sleeping quality and satisfaction degree to nursing care were evaluated within them.Results Through targeted nursing intervention preoperative anxiety of patients in the intervention group alleviated,their confidence enhanced and satisfaction degree to nursing care improved compared to those of the control group.Conclusions Targeted nursing intervention can reduce preoperative anxiety of patients with gynecological carcinoma and increase satisfaction degree to nursing care.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effects of insulation measures on blood coagulation during laparotomy in the aged patients. Methods Sixty patients were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group with 30 cases in each group from September 2007 to August 2008. The experimental group received a series of insulation measures based on general perioperative nursing care, which was given to the control group. Patients' temperature, platelet count (PLT), prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TV),fibrinogen (Fbg) were measured and these preand postoperative values together with blood loss during operation were compared between two groups. Results No significant change was seen in perioperative body temperature in the experimental group, the incidence rate of hypothermia was lower, the change in coagulation index was better than that of the control group. Conclusions These results suggested that mild hypothermia could influence aged patients' blood coagulation function and increase blood loss during laparotomy. Active insulation measures can maintain the stability of patients" temperature.
