Abstract
Objective To explore the application effect and nursing measure of the video- assisted minithoracotomy in thoracic surgery. Methods 249 cases undergoing thoracic surgery were randomly di-vided into the small incision thoracotomy group (146 cases) and the conventional thoracotomy group(103 eases). The small incision thnracotomy group completed thoracic surgery with video-assisted minithoracoto-my. The conventional thoracotomy group used conventional thoracotomy incision. The operation time,blood loss during operation,indwelling time of thoracic duct and hospitalization time were recorded and compared by t test. Results Ssignificant difference existed in operation time, blood loss during operation, in-dwelling time of thoracic duct and hospitalization time between the two groups. Conclusions Video- as-sisted minithoracotomy in thoracic surgery has the advantages of simple operation, wide indications, few complications and short hospitalization time, which is worthy of clinical application. Key words: Video- assisted thoracoscope; Small incision; Thoracotomy
