Abstract:
Objective To compare the influence of the continuous airway humidification with microp-ump and the discontinuous dripping technique on patients. Methods Randomized grouping method was adopted, 25 cases with tracheotomy in the observation group used continuous airway humidification with micro-pump, 24 cases in the control group used dripping technique via airway for airway humidification. The two groups were compared retrospectively. Results The oxygen saturation rate in the observation group increased compared with that of the control group, sputum callus formation, irritating cough, airway bleeding and pul-monary infection was significantly lower than those of the control group. Condusious The effect of continu-ous airway humidification with micro- pump is superior to the traditional method of inconsistent endotracheal dripping, the former can also decrease nursing workload of airway humidification.
