Abstract:
Objective To explore the application of compound sequential technology on sputum exclusion for patients with cervical spinal cord injury. Methods A total of 86 patients with cervical spinal cord injury ( CSCI) were divided into intervention group and control group from January 2011 to December 2013 in our hospital on average. The patients of intervention group adopted compound sequential technology on sputum exclusion, while the patients in the control group underwent conventional nursing measures. We evaluated the occurrence of pulmonary infection and atelectasis, and the usage of artificial airway. Results In the intervention group, the incidence of lung infection and atelectasis (9. 3%) was lower than that of the control group (37. 2%), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =9. 382,P< 0. 05). The cure time in the intervention group was shorter that of the control group (t = -6. 339,P <0. 05). Utilization rate of artificial airway in the intervention group was 7. 0% compared with 30. 2% in the control group (χ2 =7. 679,P<0. 05). The length of carrying tube in the intervention group was lower than that of the control group (t = -5. 490,P <0. 05). Conclusions The compound sequential technology can improve the effect of sputum exclusion in patients with CSCI, decrease pulmonary infection and atelectasis, shorten the time of carrying tube, and enhance cure rate.
