Observation of Therapeutic Effect of Hirudoid Ointment on Infantile Phlebitis Caused by Intravenous Indwelling Needle

Abstract

To observe the therapeutic effect of hirudoid ointment on infantile phlebitis caused by intravenous indwelling needle is the objective of study. 180 children with phlebitis caused by intravenous indwelling needles were enrolled as research objects in this study. They were randomly divided into research group and control group, each containing 90 patients. Children in the control group were treated with continuous wet application of 50 % magnesium sulfate at the venous site, while children in the research group were treated with hirudoid ointment externally applied at the phlebitis site. After that, the therapeutic effects of two groups were comparatively analyzed. The overall treatment effective rate of control group was 83.33 %, while that of the research group was 95.56 %, which was significantly higher, p<0.05. The regression time, area regression rate, pain relief time and cure time of the two groups were compared. Results showed that the research group had significant advantages over the control group, p<0.05. The application of hirudoid ointment in the treatment of infantile phlebitis caused by intravenous indwelling needle can actively improve the state of the disease and improve the overall treatment effective rate, which is an effective measure, worthy of promotion and application.
