Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) combined with drugs in the treatment of calcaneal fracture pain.Methods A total of 64 calcaneal fracture patients hospitalized from January,2016 to May 2017 were evenly divided into the experimental group and the control group,each consisting of 32 patients.The control group received conventional analgesic therapy and routine nursing (e.g.elevation of injured limbs,cold compress,drug analgesia,repercussion or relieving of swelling etc.),while the experimental group received HBO in addition to conventional analgesic therapy.NRS scores during the perioperative stage were observed and compared between the patients of the 2 groups.Results At admission into hospital and 2 hours after surgery,there was no statistical significance in the NRS scores for the experimental group,as compared with those of the control group (P > 0.05).The highest,lowest and average Fin scores at rest for the experimental group 3 days after surgery were respectively 5.0 ± 1.5,1.7 ± 0.6 and 2.5 ± 1.0,while those of the control group were respectively 7.5 ± 1.2,3.2 ± 0.7 and 4.0 ± 0.8.The pain scores at motion for the experimental group 7 days after surgery were 3.2 ± 0.6,while those of the control group were 4.6 ± 0.8,with the former being obviously lower than the latter,and statistical significance could be seen when comparisons were made between them (P < 0.01).Conclusions HBO combined with drugs in the treatment of calcaneal fracture could obviously alleviate pain,improve patient life quality and promote recovery after surgery.
