Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of muscle pump exercise on elderly patients with esophageal carcinoma postoperative deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremity.Methods 460 cases of elderly patients with esophageal cancer in admission sequence were randomly divided into the study group (230 cases)and control group (230 cases),the study group patients in routine care while taking the muscle pump motor measures,the control group only received routine care.Postoperative observation records include lower limb swelling,pain situation and postoperative deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremity in the two groups.Results In the study group,lower limb swelling,pain occurs at a rate of 10.43％ was lower than 20.87％ in control group ( x2 =9.48,P ＜ 0.01 ).Deep venous thrombosis in lower extremities accounted for 2.17％ in study group and also lower than 8.26％ in the control group (x2 =8.61,P＜0.01 ).Conclusions The muscle pump motor measures is easy to master,and has opened up a new way to prevent postoperative deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremity morbidity of the elderly patients with esophageal carcinoma,reduce postoperative complications,promote the postoperative rehabilitation of patients,and also has very important practical significance,is worth the clinical further promotion.
