Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of flushing uterine cavity with metronidazole solution at different temperatures on postpartums with high risk of infections during cesarean section.Methods One hundred and two puerperas with high risks of infections undergoing caesarean section were randomized according to random sampling into three groups equally.Groups A,B and C were treated with uterine cavity flushing with metronidazole solution at three temperatures of 22~24℃,39~40℃and 37.5~37.8℃respectively.Comparisons were done between the three groups in terms of vaginal bleeding 2h after operation,heart rates 15 min before operation and 15 min after operation and the temperatures.Results The differences in temperature and heart rate 15 min after operation were significantly different arnong the groups(P<0.05).The temperature and heart rates of group A were higher and faster than the other two groups(both P<0.05)but no differences between group B and group C(P>0.05).In group A,the temperature and heart rate after operation were significantly lower and faster than those before operation(P<0.05),while there were no differences within group B and C respectively (P>0.05).The vaginal bleeding volume 2 h after operation in groups A and B was significantly more than group C(P<0.05)and that of group B was significantly smaller than group A(P<0.05).Conclusion Uterine cavity flushing using metronidazole at the temperature of 37.5~37.8℃after cesarean section can reduce postpartum hemorrhage and relieve patient’s discomfort.
