Family members must do a good job of postoperative care for cardiac cancer

At present, the incidence of cardia cancer is very high, which has caused great harm to the lives of our people. And many patients will become seriously ill again due to the lack of postoperative care for cardia cancer. Therefore, family members should understand the postoperative care methods of cardia cancer in time to take good care of the patients. Let's take a look at the postoperative care of cardia cancer.

Postoperative care for cardiac cancer includes:

1. When the patient sweats a lot, give him a warm bath and change his bedding and clothes in time. Keep the environment quiet, soak his feet in warm water before going to bed, guide the patient to take deep breaths and relax, and give sedatives and analgesics before going to bed to assist sleep if necessary. This is the postoperative care method for cardiac cancer.

2. Properly fix the chest tube, leaving enough length, and be gentle when turning over to avoid pulling the tube, causing wound pain and tube dislocation and other adverse consequences. When coughing and expectorating effectively, patients and family members can be guided to press the wound with their hands or hug a pillow to relieve the tension on the wound and relieve pain. Patients with low pain thresholds can be given analgesic pumps to relieve pain, and can be guided to use deep breathing, listening to music and other methods to divert attention and relieve discomfort. This is also a postoperative care measure for cardiac cancer.

3. After the operation, the patient can use a straw to suck in an appropriate amount of cold boiled water to rinse the mouth, but advise the patient not to swallow it to prevent choking. Prepare lip balm. If the lips are dry, moisturize them regularly with water and then apply lip balm to moisturize. Be careful not to apply water to the lips multiple times. If necessary, cover the mouth with wet gauze to reduce water loss, or cut cucumber into thin slices and cover the lips to increase comfort. These postoperative care for cardiac cancer is relatively effective.

The above is the postoperative care of cardiac cancer. I hope everyone can understand it one by one. As long as the above postoperative care methods of cardiac cancer are combined, patients can better control the disease, which of course will also help their treatment. So please keep in mind these postoperative care measures for cardiac cancer, which will definitely help patients. I wish all patients can fight the disease to the end.
