How to treat phlebitis?
Thrombophlebitis, referred to as phlebitis, refers to the inflammation of venous blood vessels. Phlebitis can be divided into superficial phlebitis and deep phlebitis according to different lesion sites. Its pathological changes include intimal hyperplasia, lumen stenosis and slow blood flow. Congestive erythema can appear on the surrounding skin, sometimes accompanied by edema. After that, it gradually subsided, the congestion was replaced by pigmentation, and the erythema turned brown. A few patients can cause reactions, such as chills, fever and leukocytosis. Patients often complain of pain and swelling.

In patients with superficial phlebitis, the local swelling and pain of the affected limb are aggravated when walking, and painful strips or beaded nodules can be felt. Patients with deep phlebitis have sudden onset, swollen limbs, dark red skin, extensive varicose veins and telangiectasia; There are malnutrition changes in the later stage, accompanied by stasis dermatitis, pigmentation or superficial ulcers. The circumference of femur and tibia is more than 65,438 0 cm thicker than that of healthy limbs. The swelling and pain increased when walking, and eased after lying still. Venography showed that the deep vein of the affected limb was narrow or blocked. Wandering thrombophlebitis is a kind of superficial phlebitis with uncertain occurrence, which is a special kind of superficial phlebitis in human body. It refers to the common disease of venous thrombosis in chest wall, breast, costal margin and upper abdomen accompanied by inflammatory lesions, also known as Mond's disease.

Classification of phlebitis

1, mechanical phlebitis:

1) Improper fixation method: the puncture site is not firmly fixed, causing the needle tube to slide.

2) The diameter of the selected catheter is too thick, which stimulates the blood vessel wall.

3) The puncture site is too close to the joint, and the needle tube and the blood vessel wall are constantly rubbed due to joint activity, resulting in inflammatory reaction.

2. Chemical phlebitis: insufficient drug dilution, infusion acid, high alkalinity, high solute concentration and different materials of indwelling needle are all causes of chemical phlebitis.

3. Bacterial phlebitis: It is usually related to incorrect disinfection method, poor puncture technique, destruction of sterile state of infusion cannula and long indwelling time of catheter.

The diagnosis and treatment of vascular diseases of limbs certainly play a decisive role, but without the close cooperation of nursing, the expected purpose can not be achieved. As the saying goes, "three-point treatment and seven-point nutrition", through reasonable nursing, can alleviate the pain of patients, shorten the course of treatment and recover as soon as possible. Therefore, nursing plays a very important role in the treatment of vascular diseases of limbs.

Nursing characteristics:

1. Nursing is both * * * and personalized: whether the lesion is located in artery or vein, the peripheral circulation is damaged, and the tissue blood perfusion is reduced. When the blood flow decreases to the point where it can't meet the oxygen and nutrition required by tissue metabolism, tissue ischemia and hypoxia will occur, which will show many similar symptoms in clinic, such as chills in the affected limbs. With the development of the disease, acromegaly, infection, gangrene and other malnutrition changes gradually appear, so the nursing of arteriovenous diseases has certain characteristics. At the same time, the etiology, severity, scope and development of each disease are different, and patients' working and living habits are different, so are their clinical manifestations. Therefore, the formulation of nursing measures should also be treated according to people, illness and illness.

2. Education and guidance for patients is the guarantee for the effective implementation of nursing plan: many methods of treatment and nursing for vascular diseases have their particularity and strict indications. For example, the arterial blood supply is insufficient, and the affected limb should be below the heart level, so that the symptoms can be alleviated, while venous diseases are just the opposite. Elastic bandage can promote venous return, protect and support venous diseases, but if used improperly, it will aggravate blood stasis. It is very important for patients with venous diseases to choose the correct rest posture. Therefore, the nursing measures to maintain the tissue integrity of the affected limb are meticulous and trivial, which runs through the daily work and life of patients. Patients must also be guided and educated by professionals in order to cooperate with the implementation of various nursing programs and learn to carry out long-term self-health training.

3. Psychological care: The pain caused by tissue ischemia and hypoxia caused by vascular diseases is chronic and long-term, which reduces the patient's activity ability, affects sleep, makes his mood easily excited or inhibited, and makes him depressed and suicidal. The condition is aggravated, there are long-term unhealed ulcers, tissue gangrene needs amputation, hospitalization for many times, medical expenses increase, and the unit and family are in trouble; Or the abnormal appearance caused by lymphedema will cause different degrees of psychological impact. Therefore, psychological nursing is an important part of patients' holistic nursing.

First, some problems and solutions in the care of vascular diseases.

In view of the common characteristics of vascular diseases, such as tissue ischemia caused by damaged circulation, the primary purpose of nursing is to promote circulation, reduce tissue ischemia or prevent its further development, followed by alleviating the pain caused by ischemia and preventing tissue integrity damage such as ulcer and gangrene that may be caused by tissue malnutrition. Education and guidance on patients' disease knowledge and nursing techniques can ensure that all nursing measures can be implemented smoothly and correctly, and better achieve the purpose of controlling illness and preventing complications.

(a) insufficient tissue perfusion

Nursing goal: to increase tissue perfusion and relieve clinical symptoms. In order to increase tissue perfusion and provide enough oxygen and nutrients for tissue metabolism, nursing measures mainly start with promoting the establishment of collateral circulation, avoiding vasospasm and protecting the affected limb.

1. Promote the establishment of collateral circulation: For patients with chronic arterial insufficiency, the insufficiency of collateral circulation directly affects tissue perfusion, and ischemic pain in the affected limb will limit the patient's activities and is not conducive to the establishment of collateral circulation. The muscles of the affected limb will atrophy due to insufficient blood supply and disuse. Exercise in a planned and step-by-step manner. Increasing activities can promote the establishment of collateral circulation and increase the perfusion of peripheral tissues. Walking and Buerger exercise are often used.

2. Quit smoking and adjust your mentality: Nicotine, alcohol and mood swings will excite sympathetic nerves and cause vasospasm. Patients should be helped to quit smoking and drink less or no caffeinated drinks in their diet. Traumatic patients should adhere to a low-fat and low-sugar diet because they eat little or no irritating food. Patients with arteriosclerosis or diabetes should adhere to a low-fat and low-sugar diet.

3. Avoid oppressing the affected limb: too tight clothes, sitting cross-legged or crossing your legs on your knees, and putting things down in the popliteal fossa can compress blood vessels and affect arterial blood supply, which should be avoided as much as possible.

4. Keep warm: Contact with cold air and direct contact with cold objects will cause arterial contraction or spasm. Keep the indoor temperature and humidity appropriate and avoid direct contact with cold water. Pay attention to keep warm when going out in cold season. Normal people keep warm half a month or a month in advance to avoid exposing their limbs. Clothes, pants, shoes and socks should be loose and soft.

5. Protect the affected limb from injury: The affected limb with insufficient arterial blood supply may have a lasting ulcer under slight stimulation. Therefore, scratching and forcibly scrubbing the affected limb should be avoided. Those with blisters, ulcers or gangrene should keep local cleanliness and actively adopt correct treatment methods. Patients with severe blood supply should avoid taking a bath with hot water, so as not to increase tissue metabolism, aggravate tissue hypoxia, make the disease develop faster and aggravate symptoms.

(b) venous reflux disorder

Nursing goal: to reduce edema of the affected limb. In order to achieve the purpose of reducing venous stasis, promoting venous return and reducing edema of affected limbs, nursing measures mainly start from the following aspects.

1. posture: the affected limb should be higher than the heart level under the action of gravity. Patients should avoid keeping the same posture for a long time. When they have to stand, they should constantly bend and stretch the affected limb to promote venous return through the action of muscle pump.

2. Exercise: For venous diseases of lower limbs, proper ground walking exercise can be carried out to promote the establishment of collateral circulation and improve venous return.

3. Others: Patients who often work standing or sitting should wear elastic bandages or elastic socks.

(3) improving pain symptoms

Nursing goal: relieving or alleviating pain. The main nursing measures: promoting peripheral circulation, increasing tissue perfusion and promoting venous reflux are the fundamental measures to solve pain. Appropriate nursing measures can effectively relieve or alleviate pain. In addition, the pain often appears or worsens after the activity, so it is often manifested as a decrease in exercise and poor sleep, which makes the patient fidgety, irritable or depressed and unable to actively participate in and cooperate with the nursing staff to implement the exercise plan. Therefore, it is necessary to give it in time.

(d) Nursing care of potential tissue integrity damage

Nursing objectives: skin or tissue injury, vascular disease, decreased tissue perfusion, malnutrition, etc. It will not happen or worsen because of improper care. The outermost skin tissue of the limb is the most easily damaged part, which is easily injured by minor injuries. Once damaged, it will easily evolve into a long-term unhealed ulcer. Therefore, it should play a role in the initial stage of tissue perfusion reduction. Careful preventive skin care, especially the care of lower limbs and feet, combined with vitamin B 1 C and high protein diet, can strengthen nutrition and be beneficial to wound healing. If the disease develops rapidly and ulcer or gangrene appears in the tissue, it should be found in time and corresponding nursing measures should be taken.

(5) Nursing care of self-care defects

Patients with vascular diseases of limbs are completely or partially affected by severe pain, ulcer, gangrene or swelling of limbs, or their activities are limited due to treatment needs. In the early stage of bed rest, nurses should take the initiative to implement bedside care, including assisting in eating, drinking, defecating, cleaning, entertainment, etc., to meet patients' basic needs, eliminate patients' sense of helplessness, and comprehensively evaluate patients' self-care ability, self-care potential, learning desire and stress ability. Work out a training plan together with patients and their families, and advise their families to provide necessary material conditions and environment for patients, encourage patients to study consciously, fully mobilize their self-care potential, reduce their dependence on others, and gradually overcome the psychological barriers of self-care defects. In the process of implementing the training plan, we should actively assist patients to complete the therapeutic self-care needs, make up for the lack of patients' self-care ability, and provide help and guidance for patients to establish a new self-care model. Due to malnutrition, the limbs of patients with vascular diseases of limbs are prone to complex and refractory complications such as ulcer, cellulitis or gangrene. These complications are all due to insufficient arterial blood supply or venous reflux disorder, or lack of active preventive and nursing measures and protective support measures for distal tissues from the early stage of the disease, or failure to adhere to them for a long time. Ischemic malnutrition, the distal tissues of the affected limbs, especially the outermost skin tissues of the human body, will gradually become thin and dry. Lack of elasticity, easy to be chapped or broken due to trauma, thinning hair, thickening, brittle or deformed toenails, etc. In particular, long-term malnutrition makes it difficult to trim toenails, and abnormal feelings of tissue ischemia, such as numbness, tingling, itching and ant walking, occur due to peripheral nerve involvement. , so that the ischemic site loses its normal judgment of hot and cold.

(1) cleanliness

Wash your feet with warm water and mild and less irritating soap every day, and dry them thoroughly with a towel, especially between your toes, so as not to scratch your skin and cause ulcers.

(2) Moisturize the skin

In order to avoid wet feet as much as possible, wear cotton socks with good moisture absorption and shoes with good air permeability, and change them every day. Avoid wearing canvas shoes or rubber shoes that make your feet sweat easily to prevent dry skin. Don't expose your feet to the sun. When your feet are too dry, you can apply a thin layer of lanolin or water-containing lubricant and gently wipe your skin. Avoid using emulsion containing alcohol or perfume.

(3) Safety

We should try our best to avoid the trauma and oppression of peripheral tissues, and insist on practicing walking on the flat ground without obstacles; Don't go through the crowded crowd; Wear loose and comfortable shoes, don't wear high heels, and don't squeeze your toes. Before wearing shoes, check whether there are foreign objects in them, don't walk barefoot, and wear protective socks at night. To prevent mosquito bites and itchy skin in summer, you can use antipruritic agents instead of scratching them with your hands; To trim your nails, first soak your toenails in warm water and cut them flat with a nail knife when the light is good. Patients with abnormal thickening or diabetes should be pruned more carefully. It is advisable to wash your feet with warm water (about 32℃) to prevent burns, and you can't use hot water bags or electric mattresses to directly contact the affected parts of the affected limbs; Keep warm, don't expose the focus to cold air, and don't wash hands, feet or swim in cold water.

(4) Practice

Body position and foot exercise can promote blood circulation and establish collateral circulation. For patients with insufficient blood supply to the lower limbs, Allen—Buerger exercise should be done regularly in order to relieve the pain of the affected limbs, increase the collateral circulation of the affected limbs and improve the blood supply deficiency of the lower limbs. The method is: the patient lies on the bed, raises his lower limbs above 45 degrees, and persists until the skin of the foot turns white, so that the blood in the lower limbs is evacuated, and the time for raising the affected limb is 30 minutes. Then the patient sat up with his lower limbs hanging under the bed. At the same time, his feet do adduction, abduction or flexion and extension of the ankle joint. When exercising, the amplitude should not be too large or too fast until the skin of the affected limb is red or purple, and the suspension time is generally 2 ~ 3 minutes. Finally, the patient lay on his back for 65,438+0 ~ 3 minutes and repeated the above actions.
