Title: Influence of postural intervention nursing on postoperative pain and recovery in patients undergoing hernia surgery
Abstract: Objective
To explore the influence of postural intervention nursing on postoperative pain and recovery in patients undergoing hernia surgery.
Methods
214 patients with inguinal hernia admitted to the Second hospital of Jilin University from January 2017 to September 2018 were selected and divided into the experiment group and the control group by random number table method, with 107 cases in each group. Laparoscopic hernia surgery was performed in both groups, the control group received routine nursing during the perioperative period, the experiment group added postural intervention nursing after the operation on this basis. The clinical parameters related to surgery, the degree of postoperative abdominal distension, postoperative non-incisional pain and complications were compared between the two groups.
Results
Compared with the control group, the recovery time of postoperative bowel sounds [(9.66±2.06) hours vs (10.75±2.71) hours], postoperative anal exhaust time [(10.53±2.48) hours vs (13.20±3.31)hours] and spontaneous ambulation time [(24.49±5.15) hours vs (26.90±5.88) hours] significantly advanced in the experiment group (P<0.05). The abdominal distension score of the experiment group (2.94±1.02) scores was significantly lower than that of the control group (6.06±1.84) scores at the 3rd day after surgery (P<0.05). The incidence of postoperative non-incisional pain of the experiment group (14.95%) was significantly lower than that of the control group (28.04%) (P<0.05).
Conclusion
Individualized postural intervention nursing after hernia surgery can effectively improve the gastrointestinal function of patients, relieve the degree of postoperative abdominal distension, reduce the risk of the postoperative non-incisional pain and complications, promote postoperative recovery of the patients.
