Abstract
Objective To analyze the related risk factors of functional intestinal obstruction in general surgical patients and to discuss the feasible nursing and prevention measures. Methods The clinical data of totally 658 patients after abdominal surgery who received open abdominal surgery in the Department of General Surgery of the First People's Hospital of Huzhou in Zhejiang Province from January 2015 to January 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into the intestinal obstruction group and the non-intestinal obstruction group based on the occurrence of postoperative functional intestinal obstruction. The single factor analysis was then conducted over the age, gender, operation time, anesthesia, postoperative analgesic use (opioids and non-opioids) , abdominal operation history, smoking history, alcohol drinking history, diabetes mellitus history and history of hypertension; and Logistic regression analysis was also performed on the influencing factors to determine the impact of functional intestinal obstruction in patients who received open abdominal surgery. Results Totally 47 out of the 658 patients receiving open abdominal surgery developed functional intestinal obstruction, with an incidence of 7.14%. The univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences between the two groups in gender, age, operation time, postoperative analgesic use, history of abdominal surgery and history of diabetes mellitus (P<0.05) . According to the multivariate Logistic regression analysis, gender, age, operation time, history of abdominal surgery and history of diabetes were the risk factors of postoperative functional intestinal obstruction (P<0.01) . Conclusions The relevant risk factors for postoperative functional intestinal obstruction in general surgical patients after abdominal surgery include gender, age, operation time, history of abdominal surgery and diabetes mellitus. Corresponding nursing and prevention measures should be taken according to the relevant risk factors of patients. Key words: Intestinal obstruction, functional; Risk factor; Open abdominal surgery; Prevention
