Abstract:
Objective To study the effect of contra lateral support technology on the contra lateral postural displacement of long-term bed ridden patients and patients of inability to perform voluntary movements in clinical practice. Methods 100 eligible patients were divided into control group and experimental group according to the admission sequence. 50 patients in the control group use traditional triangle mat to turn over for every 2 hours,and 50 patients in the experimental group use combined mat to turn over at the same frequency. Postural displacement on the patient′s skin and the displacement time were observed for 24 hours and recorded for 6 times. Results The incidence rate of postural displacement, abnormal skin and the mean time of displacement of the control group were 28.67%(86/300),5.00%(15/300),(99.0 ± 18.5)min,and that of the experimental group were 65.33%(196/300),9.00% (27/300),(78.2 ± 31.6)min.The differences between both groups were statistically significant(χ2=80.958, 3.687, t=4.014, all P<0.05). Conclusions With the patient′s muscle strength increasing, the ratio of postural displacement after turning over gradually increases,and the mean time for displacement gradually decreases, increasing the damage on the skin by shear force and the risk of stress injury due to invalid position. However, the contra lateral support technology could reduce the occurrence of postural displacement to a large extent,thus decreasing risk of stress injury.
