What are the nursing methods for teratoma

What are the nursing methods for teratoma? Many people are very afraid of teratoma, and they are always worried that the disease cannot be cured. Usually, they only worry about not doing a good job of personal care, which will not only fail to help themselves recover health soon, but also bring more complications. So how should we usually take care of it, and what are the main nursing tasks?

The importance and precautions of a proper diet before and after surgery:

1. Eat a semi-liquid diet one day before the operation and do not eat or drink on the morning of the operation to prevent accidental inhalation of anesthesia.

2. Do not eat for 6 hours after the operation, and then eat liquid food, avoid sugar and milk. After the gas is discharged, gradually change from semi-liquid food to normal meals.

3. Purpose and necessity of preoperative preparation: Skin preparation is to clean the skin and prevent infection of the incision. The purpose of preoperative medication is to ensure sleep, induce anesthesia, enhance the anesthesia effect, and reduce glandular secretion. Gastrointestinal preparation prevents aspiration of vomitus during and after surgery, prevents accidental injury to the intestine during surgery, facilitates smooth surgery, and prevents abdominal distension after surgery.

4. Placement of a urinary catheter facilitates surgery and prevents accidental injury to the bladder.

5. Preoperative blood preparation and drug allergy test to prepare for intraoperative and postoperative blood transfusion and medication

6. After the operation, you may feel general discomfort, dizziness, and incision pain, which are normal phenomena. Use painkillers if necessary. You may also experience nausea and vomiting, which are mostly caused by anesthetics and surgical stimulation.

7. Teach patients techniques for turning over after surgery, methods for reducing abdominal tension, techniques for preventing incision pain when coughing, techniques for getting out of bed, and how to use a toilet in bed, etc.

8. After the operation, lie flat without a pillow and tilt your head to one side to prevent headaches, prevent suffocation due to accidental inhalation of vomitus, and prevent shock.

9. Removing the urinary catheter and urinating early are beneficial to the recovery of bladder function and the prevention of urinary retention; avoiding urination difficulties due to overfilling of the bladder

10. Discharge Instructions:

(1) Rest for 1 month after hysterectomy and refrain from sexual intercourse for 2-3 months. Avoid fatigue. After myomectomy, refrain from bathing in the tub and sexual intercourse for 1 month.

(2) 7-14 days after total hysterectomy, there will be a small amount of pink secretions in the vagina. This is caused by the dissolution of the intestinal stump of the vagina. This is a normal phenomenon and does not require treatment. Just rest properly. If the secretions are bloody and the amount is like menstrual period, you should seek medical attention immediately.

(3) You can take a shower one week after the stitches are removed, and wash your wound with warm water on a daily basis to prevent colds.

The above are all introductions on how to care for teratoma patients. At the same time, it is best for teratoma patients to quit smoking and drinking. Tobacco and alcohol have certain stimulation to the uterus. If you don't pay attention to it in normal times, it will often induce the occurrence of this type of disease.
