Abstract
To investigate the diagnostic value of ultrasound image-guided extracorporeal gastrointestinal multifunctional instrument based on pattern classification algorithm (PCA) on the physical status of patients after esophagectomy for esophageal cancer (EC), in this study, 120 esophageal cancer patients who entered our hospital for consultation and treatment from July 2019 to July 2020 were selected as the investigation subjects, and the patients were randomly divided into a control group (gastrointestinal motility drug treatment) and an observation group (gastrointestinal motility drug + extracorporeal gastrointestinal multifunctional apparatus (EGMA) therapy), with 60 cases in each group. A pattern classification method algorithm was designed for the ultrasound image characteristics of esophageal cancer tumors and applied to the clinical identification and diagnosis of postoperative status of esophageal cancer patients by the ultrasound image-guided extracorporeal gastrointestinal multifunctional instrument. The results showed that the time of exhaustion, the time of recovery of bowel sounds, and the time of the beginning of gastrointestinal peristalsis in the observation group were better than those in the control group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P < 0.05 ); the incidence of postoperative abdominal distension in the observation group was 15%, and that in the control group was 28.3%; the incidence of postoperative abdominal distension in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05 ). In conclusion, the use of EGMA guided by ultrasound image based on PCA can effectively improve the gastrointestinal function of esophageal cancer patients and significantly reduce the incidence of postoperative complications, which is worthy of clinical promotion.
Highlights
Esophageal cancer is one of the malignant tumors that seriously threaten human life and health
All patients were randomly divided into two groups, with 60 patients in each group: the control group was treated with gastrointestinal motility drugs and the observation group was treated with EGMA on the basis of gastrointestinal motility drugs, and the efficacy of the two groups was observed, respectively
According to the above-mentioned imaging examination results, it was considered as cervical esophageal cancer, which was later confirmed by pathology
Summary
Esophageal cancer is one of the malignant tumors that seriously threaten human life and health. At the early stage of esophageal cancer, there are no obvious symptoms, and some patients have difficulty in swallowing and burning pain behind the sternum, so they often miss the best treatment time due to lack of attention. At the later stage of esophageal cancer, patients may have difficulty in swallowing food, and they lose weight rapidly [1, 2]. If patients are treated and controlled in the early stage of esophageal cancer, the 5-year survival rate after surgery will reach more than 90% [5]. Diagnosis and treatment of patients with esophageal cancer is necessary [6, 7]. EGMA is a novel type of gastrointestinal pacing instrument to assist patients with gastrointestinal peristalsis. Drug treatment would increase the patient’s gastrointestinal burden and increase the patient’s psychological pressure, and the treatment effect was not very satisfactory. e emergence of EGMA solved this problem in a timely manner
