Abstract
Objective To explore the effect of two preoperation health education methods on limbs fracture patients with PCA after operation. Methods 112cases with PCA after limbs fracture operation were divided into control and experimental groups, each had 56 cases. Control group was given the preoperation health education by the anesthetist including the use of PCA pump at the day before the surgery, and after operation, the duty nurse was in charge of the oral health guidance. The systematic and oral guidance of PCA of experimental group was given by nurse, and was given the health education materials and guided specially by researcher after surgery. The degree of pain at 6, 24, 36, 48 h after operation were evaluated. Results At 6, 24, 36, 48 h after operation, the pain rates of control group were obviously higher than those of experimental group ( P <0. 001) . Conclusions The systematic and oral guidance and the written health education material can efficiently improve the education effect of PCA and also reduce the pain of limbs fracture patients.
