How to care for liver cancer patients with fever? 3 home care for liver cancer patients with fever

1. Fever caused by bacterial infection

Practice: Anti-inflammatory drugs should be used in time for treatment, and body temperature should be controlled in time when it is too high (cooling can be done by drugs or physical cooling).

2. Fever after intervention, body temperature does not exceed 38.5℃ and the patient can tolerate it

Method: Cooling treatment may be temporarily unnecessary to facilitate the absorption of necrotic tissue, but attention should be paid to keeping the patient warm and the ventilation of the ward. In addition, changes in body temperature should be closely observed.

3. High fever symptoms

Practice: Physical cooling (using a mixture of 60% medical alcohol and 40% warm water, rubbing the chest, back, soles of the feet, palms, or using cold compresses, etc.) or medication cooling should be given immediately, combined with antibiotic treatment to prevent exogenous infection caused by interventional procedures. After liver cancer patients have fever symptoms, they should also pay attention to keeping warm and strengthen other nursing work, such as ensuring good indoor air circulation, and instructing and assisting liver cancer patients with fever to drink more water and change clothes frequently.
