Abstract:
Objective To discuss the application of insulation blanket in the esophageal cancer radical surgery.Methods 40 cases of esophageal carcinoma patients were divided into two groups at random,20 cases involved in the control group (non-use of insulation blankets) and 20 cases in the experimental group (use of thermal insulation blanket).The changes in body temperature of all patients were monitored with nasopharyngeal temperature probe and analyzed in statistics.Results Compared to the control group,the body temperatures of the experimental group were higher.By heating with insulation blanket,the body temperatures were increased obviously in 30 minutes after entering the operation room,but no significant difference appeared at different time points after 30 minutes.Conclusions In radical surgery of esophageal cancer,the use of blanket insulation is an effective way to maintain a constant body temperature of patients and reduce post-operative complications,and promote early recovery of patients.
