Family members should strictly take care of patients with cardia cancer

Cardiac cancer is a very serious disease. Once contracted, it can threaten the patient's life at any time. If family members do not pay attention to the care of cardia cancer, it may affect the patient's treatment process, which is very dangerous. Therefore, everyone should master the care methods of cardia cancer as soon as possible, so as to control the patient's condition. The following is an introduction to the care of cardia cancer.

Cardiac cancer care includes:

1. Strictly control the patient's diet. This is very important for the care of cardiac cancer. The esophagus lacks a serosal layer, so the anastomosis heals slowly. Strictly fasting and drinking water should be avoided after surgery. During the fasting period of cardiac cancer patients, intravenous fluids are replenished daily.

2. If the patient has active bleeding in the chest cavity, esophageal anastomotic fistula or chylothorax, appropriate measures should be taken to make a clear diagnosis and treat it. If there is no abnormality, the drainage tube should be removed 1 to 3 days after surgery. This is something that needs more attention in the care of cardiac cancer.

3. Keeping the gastrointestinal decompression tube unobstructed is also one of the nursing measures for cardiac cancer. A small amount of blood drained out 24 to 48 hours after surgery should be considered normal. If a large amount of blood is drained out, the doctor should be notified immediately. The gastrointestinal decompression tube should be retained for 3 to 5 days to reduce the tension of the anastomosis and facilitate healing. Pay attention to the patient's gastric tube connection accurately, firmly fixed to prevent dislocation, and smooth drainage.

The above content is the care of cardia cancer. I hope you can read it carefully. As long as the care methods of cardia cancer are combined in time, patients can cooperate with the treatment as soon as possible, and then the condition can be relieved in time. So please keep in mind the care measures of cardia cancer, which will definitely help the patient's condition. Finally, I wish all patients can fight the disease to the end.
