Application of vision combined with olfactory stimulation nursing in patients with laparoscopic cholecystectomy on the body recovery and pain

Abstract

Objective To explore the effect of visual and olfactory stimulation nursing on the recovery and pain of patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods A total of 69 cases of patients with laparoscopic cholecystectomy receiving routine care in this hospital from November 2015 to November 2016 were selected as the control group. In addition, 69 cases of laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients admitted by the hospital from December 2016 to December 2017 for visual and olfactory stimulation nursing were selected as the observation group. The changes of daily living ability and pain degree were compared between the two groups. Results The time of first exhaust, time of getting out of bed, time of normal eating and time of hospitalization in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). ADL scores in the observation group were all higher than those in the control group after 3 days of nursing, and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). NRS scores in the observation group were lower than those in the control group after 3 days of nursing, and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). Conclusion The application of vision and smell stimulation nursing in patients with laparoscopic cholecystectomy can effectively promote the recovery of the body, improve living ability, reduce pain, is worthy of clinical promotion.
