Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effects of the intervention program for intestinal dysfunction after spinal cord injury during the acute spinal cord injury period.Methods:Totally 76 patients with intestinal dysfunction during acute spinal cord injury who were admitted into Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital and Shanghai Changzheng Hospital between March and December 2019 were selected by convenient sampling. According to the non-concomitant controlled study design, 42 patients admitted from March to May 2019 were included into the control group, while 34 patients admitted from October to December 2019 were included into the intervention group. Patients in the control group received routine care, while the intervention program for intestinal dysfunction after spinal cord injury was adopted for patients in the intervention group. After 2 weeks of intervention, the intestinal function indicators were compared between the two groups.Results:After 2 weeks of intervention, the improvement of abdominal distension and constipation of the intervention group was better than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P< 0.05) . Conclusions:The intervention program for intestinal dysfunction during acute spinal cord injury can effectively improve the intestinal function of patients and reduce the incidence of abdominal distension and constipation.
