Abstract:
Objective To use evidence-based nursing on patients with artificial airway to the practice of stomach tube, and to evaluate the self made guidance for difficult gastric tube placement in patients with artificial airway.Methods Forty patients with artificial airway and were difficult to put the tube, and admitted to Department of Critical Care Medicine of Harrison International Peace Hospital Affiliated to Hebei Medical University from April to December in 2016 were enrolled as observation group. Through the evidence-based nursing strategy, the related literatures at home and abroad were collected to search clinical evidence and formulate and implement the nursing program, the gastric tube was inserted into the stomach tube under the direct vision of the laryngoscope. Thirty-six patients of difficult gastric tube placement with artificial airway straightly under the direct vision of the laryngoscope from August 2015 to March 2016 were retrospectively analyzed as the control group. The success rate of first catheterization, indwelling time, throat edema and bleeding of pharyngeal mucosa were compared between the two groups.Results All patients were enrolled in the final analysis. In the control group, 28 patients were successfully placed once, while 8 failed. Only 1 patient in observation group failed to catheterize, and successful placed after symptomatic treatment, the one-time success rate of catheter was significantly higher than that of control group (97.5% vs. 77.8%), and catheter time was significantly shortened (minutes: 4.8±1.2 vs. 5.1±1.0), the difference was statistically significant (bothP < 0.05). There were 2 patients with laryngeal edema in the control group and 4 patients of pharyngeal mucosal hemorrhage. In the observation group, there was no laryngealedema and laryngeal edema occurred in the patients with laryngoscopy, and only 1 patient had a hemorrhage of pharyngeal mucosa.Conclusion Using self made guiding device can effectively insert the difficult gastric tube in patients with artificial airway, and increase the one-time success rate of intubation, shorten the catheter time, and have a trend in reduce complication as compared with traditional gastric tube placement.
