What are the problems that patients who have been bedridden for a long time? What are the key points

Venous thrombosis, lung infection, muscle atrophy, easy to compress the buttocks, resulting in obstruction of blood circulation, pressure ulcers with venous thrombosis or lung infection. During the nursing, pay attention to turning over frequently or using air cushions, massaging parts, massaging both lower limbs, and passive movement of both lower limbs.

Long-term bed rest compresses the local tissues of the body, resulting in tissue ischemia, hypoxia, and pressure ulcers, so it should be strengthened to care. Use an air mattress to relieve local pressure and improve blood circulation. Every 1 2 hours, assist in turning over, percussion, circular massage of the pressure area, the action should be gentle, the bone protrusion is covered with an air cushion, and the patient's condition is observed in time.

The complications of long-term bed rest mainly include bedsores, venous thrombosis, lung infection, muscle atrophy, etc., and the nursing measures include frequent turning, more massage, and moderate limb movement.

The patient is bedridden for a long time, and if the patient does not turn over in time, the buttocks will continue to be compressed, resulting in poor local blood circulation, causing avascular necrosis and bedsores.

The lower limbs have reduced or even inactive activity, and the blood flow is relatively slow, which is easy to cause venous thrombosis, and once the thrombus falls off, it is easy to cause pulmonary embolism, which may be life-threatening.

Lying flat for a long time prevents the discharge of secretions from the lungs, causing lung infections and causing pneumonia. Lack of movement of the limbs, resulting in disuse muscle atrophy.

Care measures include: turning over frequently, every 1 2 hours, or using an air mattress; Local massage, where the muscles of the lower limbs are abundant, can be passively moved, and the muscles are massaged to accelerate blood circulation.

Patients who have been bedridden for a long time are prone to bedsores, first of all, they must turn over frequently to avoid long-term local pressure on blood circulation to form bedsores, and if necrosis is easy to infect bacteria and cause sepsis, the patient's life is at risk. If possible, it is best to sell medical air mattresses for patients to sleep on, which can reduce the occurrence of bedsores. Once there is a pressure sore, you can wipe it with ** new liquid to reduce inflammation, generally you can do three or four hours of frequent turnover, and patients rarely get bedsores.

If the patient is unable to get sick on his own, you can buy a variety of silicone urinal receivers for the patient to use, and replace them in time to prevent urinary tract infection. Usually, scrub and change clothes more often to prevent odors. Paralysis patients have stiff limbs, do not break limbs with force to avoid breaking bones and causing unnecessary pain to patients.

In general, paralyzed patients have fingers that are easily bent and deformed, and it is best to let the patient grasp small soft objects oblong or round in the palm of the hand to prevent the nail from stabbing the palm and causing muscle decay. In terms of diet, try to use soft rice with soup to make it easier for the patient to swallow, and it is best to use a pillow to elevate the head when feeding the patient to prevent accidental injury caused by food flowing into the trachea. In the later stage, the patient will have difficulty swallowing, and the patient can be fed liquid food, such as:

Porridge, lotus root flour, cereal, rice flour. Patients who have been bedridden for a long time are prone to constipation, so give the patient more bananas, apples, kiwifruit, dragon fruit, and blood soup, and if the constipation lasts for a long time, the patient should be given laxative tea into probiotics so that the patient can defecate in time to prevent intestinal obstruction. Caring for a patient is a very laborious thing, you and your family should be prepared for a long battle, because the patient is unable to take care of himself, and incontinence can make you and your family anxious or even anxious at any time, and it is more important to understand the patient than to care.

If the bedridden elderly patients know that improper care is likely to cause complications such as bedsores and injuries, they should turn over frequently and massage to promote blood circulation. In particular, the patient's avenue urine cleaning should be clean and hygienic. It is recommended to use the Quanpinyuan Bedridden College Urine Care Instrument, which can automatically rinse and urinate, dry and collect, and turn over, which is convenient and labor-saving, reduces harm to patients, and maintains a clean and hygienic state.
