Objective To determine the efficiency of microwave heating of the conjunctival sac flushing liquid combined with disposible blood transfusion device to prepare for laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK).Methods A total of 150 healthy myopia patients undergoing LASIK in Myopia Treatment Center of our hospital from February to August 2013 were divided into two groups randomly according to operation date,75 patients in each group.The observation group used a microwave oven to heat the flushing liquid connected with a disposable blood transfusion device.The control group used a hot water bath to heat the flushing liquid,which was then connected to a disposable infusion device.The heated liquid by both methods was applied to conjunctival sac flushing before LASIK.The time required for liquid heating was recorded and the outcome of the conjunctival sac flushing was compared between the two groups.Results The time required by the observation group and the control group of heating flushing fluid from 5,10,15,20,25 and 30 ℃ to (36.0±1.0) ℃ was 124,104,84,64,44,24 s and 372,312,252,192,132,72 s,respectively.The conjunctival sac flushing effect comparison between the observation group and the control group was as follows:in four indicators such as the operation cooperation,conjunctiva congestion,spasm of eyelid,eye pain,there was no significant difference between two groups; for tear fat deposition,there was significant difference between two groups (4 cases vs.15 cases,x2=7.292,P < 0.01).Conclusions Microwave heating of the conjunctival sac flushing liquid connected with a disposable blood transfusion device is efficient,safe and easy to operate.Therefore,it gains approvement and high opinion of medical workers and is worth being popularized in clinic.
