Daily care for hamartoma

Hamartoma can be divided into several types of diseases according to the different parts of the disease. The most common ones are renal hamartoma, pulmonary hamartoma, etc. No matter which type of hamartoma it is, reasonable health care is required after treatment so that the patient can recover as soon as possible. Below I will introduce to you the daily care of hamartoma.

1. Psychological guidance and nursing for patients: Any adverse stimulation can induce aggravation of tumor parenchymal bleeding, so the patient's mood should be kept stable and the surrounding environment should be quiet. Communicate with the patient frequently, introduce the patient to the knowledge about hamartoma, let the patient know that hamartoma is a benign tumor, comfort the patient, ask him to relax, avoid mental stress that causes increased bleeding and worsens the condition, and patiently answer the patient's various questions.

2. Psychological guidance and care for family members: When patients are ill, they need to bear greater psychological pressure. Patients are prone to psychological problems such as inferiority, depression, irritability, etc. They often do not cooperate with nursing and treatment. At this time, patients need care the most. Family members are the spiritual support of patients. We encourage family members to be full of affection and love, help patients solve practical difficulties, and also guide family members correctly to avoid stimulation of adverse effects on patients due to family members' reactions.

3. Closely observe the patient's condition. Monitor vital signs, especially changes in heart rate and blood pressure, and be alert to bleeding. At the same time, observe abdominal symptoms and signs, pay attention to whether the wound dressing has bleeding or exudate, and keep the dressing clean.

4. Body position. After tumor removal or partial nephrectomy, patients should stay in bed for 7-10 days to prevent secondary bleeding. Patients who have not bled or have little bleeding should lie on the healthy side, and lying on the affected side is strictly prohibited. After the blood pressure of patients with total nephrectomy stabilizes, they can take a semi-recumbent position to reduce abdominal distension, facilitate drainage and body recovery, and can get out of bed and move around 2-3 days after surgery.

5. Take good care of the drainage tube. Fix the drainage tube properly, pay special attention to the care of the perinephric drainage tube or retroperitoneal drainage tube, correctly record the amount, nature, and color of the drainage fluid, and promptly detect any secondary bleeding.

6. Observation and care of the condition. The rupture and bleeding of hamartoma can be divided into three types, namely, bleeding within the tumor, bleeding from the tumor to the collecting system, and rupture of the tumor to the kidney to form perinephric or retroperitoneal hematoma.

7. Daily diet care for hamartoma: Eat a light and nutritious diet and pay attention to dietary balance. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. To avoid recurring the disease, such as seafood, chicken, dog meat, etc. At the same time, do not fast on irritating foods. Avoid smoking, drinking, spicy foods, greasy foods, smoking, drinking, and eating raw and cold foods.
