Clinical observation and nursing care of patients receiving hyperbaric oxygen adjuvant therapy after calcaneal frac-ture operation
Abstract:Objective:To observe the clinical effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy and nursing intervention meas-ures after operation of calcaneal fracture.Methods:A total of 73 patients undergoing calcaneal fracture operation from January in 2010 to March in 2012 were randomly divided into hyperbaric oxygen treatment group (37 ca-ses)and control group (36 cases).The patients in control group received routine nursing,while the patients in hyperbaric oxygen treatment group received hyperbaric oxygen therapy and comprehensive professional nursing on the basis of that in control group,6d was a course and 2 courses consecutively,and then to compare and ana-lyze the clinical effect and complications of patients after treatment in both groups.Results:There were 4 cases of complications totally in the hyperbaric oxygen treatment group (10.8%),and 12 cases in control group (33.3%), there was statistically significant difference between both groups (P =0.020).There was statistically significant difference in patients’AOFAS score (P =0.032),SF 36 score (P =0.026)and VAS score (P =0.008).Con-clusion:Hyperbaric oxygen adjuvant therapy combined with the corresponding nursing measures can reduce the incidence of incision complications in patients after calcaneal fracture operation and further improve the pa-tients’clinical efficacy and quality of life.
