Abstract

In order to avoid the psychological harm caused by pain to patients, in this study, the application effect of computer-assisted local anesthesia in patient surgery was studied. In this method, 72 patients with hypertension, 35 males and 37 females, aged 53–83 years, with an average age of 70.8 ± 1.3 years, were selected for appointment tooth extraction in the department of stomatology from January to December 2014. All patients were booked for tooth extraction by ECG monitoring. Patients who were contraindicated for tooth extraction, had a history of mental illness, and had used antianxiety drugs and sedatives within 1 week before surgery were excluded. Patients were randomly divided into two groups according to their ID numbers: observation group, 36 cases, and control group. Painless oral local anesthesia injection instrument was used for local anesthesia injection. In the control group, 36 patients were injected with local anesthesia by traditional manual injection. The results showed that 86.11% of patients in the observation group had decreased anxiety scores after anesthesia, while only 13.88% of patients in the control group had decreased anxiety scores. Among patients with decreased anxiety scores, 80.65% in the observation group became nondental anxiety compared with 28.57% in the control group. Computer-assisted oral local anesthesia can effectively control dental anxiety and relieve the pain and discomfort of local anesthesia injection, and improve patient satisfaction, conducive to the smooth nursing work.

Highlights

  • With the improvement of people’s living standards, patients have higher requirements for the comfort and safety of oral local anesthesia, especially for patients with dental anxiety [1]

  • Tooth extraction is a common operation in alveolar surgery. e pain caused by local anesthesia injection is one of the important causes of dental anxiety in patients, which can lead to the excitation of the sympathetic nervous system, accelerated heart rate, and increased blood pressure

  • In the monitoring of heart rate and blood pressure, this study found that the heart rate and blood pressure of the observation group did not change significantly before, during, and after injection, while the blood pressure of the control group increased significantly during local anesthesia injection compared with before and after injection

Summary

Introduction

With the improvement of people’s living standards, patients have higher requirements for the comfort and safety of oral local anesthesia, especially for patients with dental anxiety [1]. E pain caused by local anesthesia injection is one of the important causes of dental anxiety in patients, which can lead to the excitation of the sympathetic nervous system, accelerated heart rate, and increased blood pressure. On the basis of the current research, this study proposed the application effect of computer-assisted local anesthesia in patient surgery In this method, 72 patients with hypertension, 35 males and 37 females, aged 53–83 years, with an average of 70.8 ± 1.3 years, were selected for appointment tooth extraction in the department of stomatology from January to December 2014. By reducing patients’ injection pain and anxiety, changes in blood pressure and heart rate can be effectively controlled, so as to reduce the incidence of hypertensive crisis as much as possible
