Abstract:
Objective To assess the clinical value of compression-braking pants in preventing postoperative bleeding and pressure sore after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE).Methods A total of 50 patients with liver cancer,who received interventional treatment via femoral artery route at authors' hospital during the period from May 2015 to May 2016,were enrolled in this study.The patients were randomly divided into observation group and control group with 25 patients in each group.In the observation group,the patients were asked to put on the compression-braking pants after TACE procedure and routine postoperative nursing care was executed as usual.In the control group,routine postoperative nursing care and compression of puncture point with sandbag were carried out.After TACE,the conditions of local congestion,local hematoma,formation of pseudoaneurysm at the puncture site,etc.in both groups were recorded.The local skin conditions,including skin moist feeling,burning sensation,feeling of numbness and rubefaction were determined.Results The postoperative bleeding incidence in the observation group was 4%,which was obviously lower than 32% in the control group.No pressure sore occurred in both groups.In aspect of skin moist feeling,burning sensation,feeling of numbness and rubefaction,the observation group was significantly superior to the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion The use of compression-braking pants after TACE can effectively prevent the occurrence of postoperative bleeding and pressure sore.The compression-braking pants have reasonable design and simple structure,and it is easy to put on and take off the pants.The use of the pants can improve patient's comfort and satisfaction.Therefore,it is worth promoting its use in clinical practice.
