Nursing methods after subdural anesthesia surgery include observing the drainage tube, paying attention to changing the postoperative posture of patients, and other nursing care.
1. Observe the drainage tube: a drainage tube will be left after epidural anesthesia surgery, and the drainage tube needs to be well protected after the surgery to avoid the phenomenon of the drainage tube coming out and folding.
2. Pay attention to change the postoperative posture of patients: after epidural anesthesia surgery, patients need to lie flat on their backs for 4-6 hours, and if nausea, vomiting and other discomforts occur, they need to inform the medical personnel in time. The patient’s head should be turned to one side to avoid aspiration or blockage of the airway, which may lead to asphyxiation. Turn over every two hours after the operation and massage the pressurized limbs appropriately.
3. Other nursing care: patients also need to carry out low-flow oxygen inhalation after the operation, due to the postoperative gastrointestinal peristalsis has not been fully recovered, so need to be appropriate fasting. Pay attention to observe whether there is oozing and other phenomena in the dressing area.
If there is any abnormality after epidural anesthesia surgery, it is necessary to pay attention to inform the medical staff in time and handle it under the doctor’s guidance.
