summary
Some time ago, when my husband went out, he had a car accident because he was driving too fast. He had multiple fractures all over his body. He had just finished the operation, and now he is hospitalized. The doctor said that he must take good care after the operation. Now I will introduce the nursing after orthopedic operation.
How to nurse after orthopedic operation
First: match nutrition and diet. This is the key point of postoperative nursing for fracture patients. In the early stage of rehabilitation, fracture patients often need to stay in bed with less activity and poor digestive function, which will cause abnormal metabolism of the body. The most obvious is the negative balance of protein (that is, the consumption of protein is greater than the intake of protein in diet). Blood loss caused by trauma can also lead to the loss of nutrition in the body.
Second, the healing of fracture and the repair of soft tissue need sufficient nutrition. If the diet is not well regulated and the nutrition can not keep up, it will not only affect the patient's tolerance to fracture and soft tissue injury, but also affect the healing of bone and wound and the rehabilitation of the patient. Therefore, it is very important to take care of the diet of the patients after fracture surgery. Patients need to eat some easy to digest, nutritious, light food, should adopt high calorie, high protein, high vitamin diet, can eat more animal liver, stomach, as well as ribs soup, chicken, eggs, fish, bean products, milk, and eat more vegetables, fruits and so on.
Third, we should also provide psychological care for patients. Many fracture patients in bed for a long time, often will appear on the emotional fluctuations. Due to the consideration of the recovery of the body, it needs the patient and meticulous care of the family. If there is any unpleasantness in the family, don't show it in front of the patient, so as not to cause the patient's misunderstanding.
matters needing attention
Do not move the patient's body at will after the fracture operation, otherwise it is very likely that there will be bone displacement, making the condition more serious. We must communicate well with the medical staff and cooperate with them before nursing.
