Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of early drinking on keeping safety and improving comfort of mouth cavity in postoperative patients with transsphenoidal resection of pituitary adenoma. Methods A total of 70 postoperative patients with transsphenoidal resection of pituitary adenoma were divided into the experimental group and the control group with 35 cases each by random number table method. The control group were allowed to drink water after postoperative 6 hours, the experimental group were allowed to drink a small amount of water after 1 h when they recovered from anesthesia. The symptoms of heart rate, respiration, blood pressure, pulse oxygen saturation, nausea, vomiting, mis- aspiration, dry mouth,thirst, sore throat, oral pH value, oral cavity peculiar smell and the mood were observed 6 h after operation. Results After 6 hours, the heart rate, respiration, systolic blood pressure, and pulse oxygen saturation in the two groups were within normal range, which were (79.14±7.82) times per minute vs. (82.29±13.48) times per minute, (17.71± 1.10) times per minute vs. (18.31±1.92) times per minute, (121.66±10.61) mmHg vs.(121.55±12.86) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), (17.71±1.10) times per minute, (0.99±0.01) % vs. (0.99±0.01) %,there was no significant differences( t=-1.603-0.673, P > 0.05). The value of diastolic blood pressure in the control group were lower than that of the experimental group,(70.14±6.87) mmHg vs.( 74.34±7.29) mmHg, there was significant difference ( t=2.497, P < 0.05) .The incidence of mis- aspiration was zero in two groups. The rate of nausea, vomiting were 11.43%(4/35) and 5.71% (2/35) in the experimental group, which were significantly lower than 17.14%(6/35) and 11.43%(4/35) in the control group, there was no significant differences (χ2=0.467,0.182, P > 0.05). The rate of dry mouth,thirst in the experimental group were lower than those of the control group, 2.71±1.74 vs. 7.03± 1.98, 1.77±1.68 vs. 5.06±2.35, the difference was statistically significant (t=-9.685, -6.725, P < 0.01). T he value of sore throat in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group, 3.40±1.72 vs. 4.11± 2.23, there was no significant differences (t=-1.500, P > 0.05). There was difference in oral pH value(6.82±0.17 vs. 6.43±0.25, t=0.815, P < 0.01) between the experimental group and the control group. The rates of oral cavity peculiar smell and the mood in the experimental group were 8.57% (3/35) and 28.57% (10/35), which were better than those of the control group, 82.85% (29/35), 45.71%(16/35), the difference were significant (χ2=4.629, 10.516, P < 0.05). Conclusions Early drinking in postoperative patients with transsphenoidal resection of pituitary adenoma is secure and it can relieve uncomfortable symptoms, maintain normal oral pH value, improve comfort of mouth cavity and keep good mood of patients.
