ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effects of mirabilite stuck on umbilical region combined with early enteral nutrition (EEN) on gastrointestinal function and serum inflammatory mediators in patients with mechanical ventilation. Methods Sixty-four patients with mechanical ventilation admitted to the Department of Intensive Care Unit of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang Traditional Chinese Medical University from January to December 2016 were enrolled, and they were divided into an observation group and a control group by random number table, 32 cases in each group. The control group was treated with routine western medicine+ EEN, and the observation group was treated additionally with mirabilite stuck onto umbilical region on the basis of the treatment of the control group. The clinical effect was observed after 7 days of treatment. The differences in gastrointestinal function scores and the levels of serum inflammatory mediators were compared between the two groups before and after treatment.Results After treatment, gastrointestinal function scores of the diarrhea, bowel sound, abdominal distension and the levels of white blood cell count (WBC), serum procalcitonin (PCT), serum C-reactive protein (CRP) were decreased significantly in both groups compared with those before treatment, and the degrees of decreasing in above index levels after treatment in the observation group were more obvious than those in the control group [diarrhea 0.72±0.03 vs. 1.59±0.21, bowel sounds 0.87±0.05 vs. 1.54±0.18, abdominal distension 0.77±0.04 vs. 1.63±0.09, WBC (×109/L) 9.87±1.25 vs. 12.46±2.04, PCT (μg/L) 5.43±1.02 vs. 9.65±1.63, CRP (mg/L) 56.87±4.52 vs. 89.43±8.24, allP < 0.05].Conclusion Applying mirabilite stuck on umbilical region combined with EEN can effectively promote the recovery of gastrointestinal function and significantly decrease the levels of serum inflammatory mediators in patients with mechanical ventilation.
