Clinical Observation of Elastic Neck Fixed Band in Thyroid Surgery

Abstract:

To evaluate the effectiveness of the elastic neck fixed band in improving patient’s satisfaction, increasing the level of comfort, as well as reducing hemorrhage amount, etc... . Have 100 patients with subtotal thyroidectomy in our hospital randomly divided into two groups: experimental group and control group. The 50 patients in experimental group are treated with new nursing method, i.e. the elastic neck fixed band. The other 50 patients in control group are treated with traditional nursing method, i.e. the ice pack or sandbag. Observe the effectiveness on patients of the two methods in terms of comfort, bleeding volume, satisfaction. In contrast with the control group, the satisfaction degree of the patients in the experimental group is significantly higher. The difference between the two groups is statistically significant (P<0.01).The bleeding volume of the experimental group is significantly less than that of the control group, the difference is statistically significant between the two groups (P<0.01). The result shows that it is worthy of clinical popularization and application.
