Abstract:
Objective:To explore an early mobilization plan for oral cancer patients after free flap reconstruction and evaluate the application effect of the plan.Methods:This study was a prospective randomized controlled trial. A total of 173 patients undergoing free flap reconstruction surgery from December 2018 to December 2021 in the second ward of Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology were selected. The patients were randomly divided into the control group (87 cases) and the intervention group (86 cases) by cluster randomized grouping. The control group received the routine nursing plan, that was, head immobilization for 4 days after surgery, and patients performed sat up and off-bed activity on the 5th day. The intervention group received the early mobilization plan, that was, patients sat up on the 2nd day after surgery and performed off-bed activity on the 3rd day. The incidence of vascular compromise, postoperative complications, sleep time in the first 5 days after surgery, catheter removal time, hospitalization duration and expenses were compared between the two groups.Results:The incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection, the daily sleep time in the first 5 days after surgery, the time for removing nasogastric tube, trachea cannula, and urinary catheter were 7.0%(6/86), (5.0 ± 1.0) h/d, (11.8 ± 7.3) d, (6.1 ± 3.2) d, (3.6 ± 0.6) d in the intervention group, and 13.8%(12/87), (4.4 ± 1.3) h/d, (14.2 ± 5.8) d, (7.3 ± 1.7) d, (4.0 ± 0.9) d in the control group, all differences were statistically significant ( χ2 = 3.89, t values were -3.57 - -2.44, all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of rascular compromise, hospitalization duration and expenses between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:For patients undergoing free tissue flap reconstruction, it is safe to sit up on the 2nd day and get out of bed on the 3rd day, which can reduce the incidence of pulmonary infection, improve patient sleep, and shorten the indwelling time of nasogastric tube, trachea cannula and urinary catheter.
