Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects and influences of meridian stretch stocking for prevention of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis ( LEDVT ) after gynecological pelvic surgery. Methods A total of 210 patients,who conducted pelvic surgery at Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Wuhan Third Hospital from April 2010 to February 2013, were randomly divided into routine group (Group A), the common stretch stocking group ( Group B) and meridian stretch stocking group ( Group C) , 70 cases in each group,according to their check-in time. The patients of Group A followed routine nursing methods, and the patients of Group B complied with normal stretch stocking while the patients of Group C adopted meridian stretch stocking. The usage of stretch stockings was on the basis of conventional nursing methods and applied immediately after the surgery. Then a series of comparisons were made in terms of lower extremity venous blood flow velocity, foot dorsum skin temperature and the incidence of LEDVT, coagulation and fibrinolytic function, etc. Results Group C possessed the lowest LEDVT incidence in three groups and the differences were statistically significant (χ2 =6. 667,P<0. 05). Meanwhile Group C had the fastest posterior divisions superficial vein and popliteal fossa vein blood flow velocity with statistical significance compared with the other two groups (P<0. 01). The lower limb dorsal skin temperature of Group C was higher than that of Group A and Group B after two and four hours′ surgery ( P<0. 01). There was no statistical difference in blood coagulation and fibrinolytic function of the three groups (P>0. 05). Conclusions Meridian stretch stocking can advance venous blood flow velocity, improve lower limb dorsal skin temperature and reduce LEDVT incidence of patients with gynecological pelvic surgery.
