Clinical application of medical oral fixator in gastric lavage

Abstract

Objective To observe the effect of the clinical application of medical oral fixator in gastric lavage. Methods 40 patients undertaking emergent gastric lavage because of poisoning at our hospital were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group, 20 for each group. The control group were treated with gastroscope bite and gastric lavage after intubation. The observation group were fixed with gastric lavage tube by medical bite. The stability of the two methods, the success rate of one-time intubation, and the incidence of adverse reactions were observed and compared. The time of gastric tube insertion and the time of gastric lavage were compared between the two groups. Results The shift rate was 40.00% intheobservation group and 90.00% in the control group. The success rate of one-time intubation was 95.00% in the observation group and 60.00% in the control group, with a statistical difference (P<0.05) . The nasogastric intubation time and gastric lavage time were significantly shorter in the observation group than in the control group, with statistical differences (P<0.05) . Conclusion Fixing gastric lavage tube with medical bite for emergent gastric lavage of the poisoning has obvious clinical effect, few adverse reactions, and short gastric lavage time, so it is worth being generalized. Key words: Medical bite; Intubation method; Emergent gastric lavage; Fixator
