Abstract
Objective To investigate the influence of heating rapid and large intravenous infusion during emergency treatment on infusion reaction. Methods Totally 120 patients performed heating rapid and large amounts of intravenous infusion during the period of October 2015 to January 2016 in our group were retrospectively investigated. The patients were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group. Each group contained 60 cases. The control group performed normal room temperature liquid intravenous infusion. In the observation group, infusion thermostat was used to heat series of liquid to the temperature of 37 ℃ through thermostatic transfusion. Performance, changing of body temperature and comfort level of the patients in the two groups was also discussed during the process of intravenous infusion. Results There were 14 cases (23%) limb chills, 3 cases (5%) shivering, 8 cases (13%) infusion site pain, 42 cases (70%) comfortable satisfaction in the observation, and 54 cases (90%), 19 cases (31%), 46 cases (76%) and 17 cases (28%) in the control group relatively. The results showed that the number of observation group patients with discomfort and adverse reactions was significantly lower than those of the control group (χ2=14.249 -54.299, P 0.01). And 60, 90, 120, 150 minutes after intravenous infusion, ear temperature in the observation group were (36.68±0.22), (36.59±0.17), (36.53±0.17) , (36.48±0.17) ℃, while in the control group were (36.58±0.19), (36.35±0.16), (36.23±0.20), (36.07±0.23) ℃, the ear temperature in the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group (t=2.640-11.165, P < 0.05 or 0.01). Conclusions The results indicated that heating rapid intravenous infusion in emergency treatment has the advantage of effective alleviation of the adverse reaction of intravenous infusion, increase patient body comfort, and maintain a stable basal body temperature. The heating rapid and large intravenous infusion on emergency treatment could achieve a satisfactory therapeutic effect.
