Abstract:
Objective To observe the efficacy and safety in the postoperative craniocerebral trauma elderly patients us-ing the layered method of sputum suction. Methods Senventy patients aged 60 and above with craniocerebral trauma were divided into the layered method group (group A) and the traditional method group (group B). The vital sign, mu-cosa damage frequency, the times of average daily sputum suction and the incidence of VAP were compared. Results Compared with group B, group A could reduce the vital signs change and the times of average daily sputum suction, with lower airway mucosa damage and the incidence of VAP, the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). Con-clusion The layered method of sputum suction is safer and more effective than traditional method in treatment of the postoperative elderly patients with craniocerebral trauma.
