How to treat uterine laceration

The female uterus is a relatively important part of the body. It is the part where the fetus is nurtured. If there is a problem with the female uterus, it will not only affect conception, but also affect the female's physical health. If a woman does not want to have children, it is best to choose contraceptive measures to avoid accidental pregnancy and abortion. Reducing uterine cavity operations will reduce harm to the uterus. So what is the best way to treat uterine lacerations? Let’s take a look at it next.

1. How to treat uterine laceration?

Drug treatment

If symptoms are severe, antibiotics should be used to treat the infection. Or traditional Chinese medicine can clear away heat and dampness, detoxify and reduce inflammation, and promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.

Surgery

1. Minor lacerations can usually heal naturally without causing any harm to the body. For those with ectropion of the cervical mucosa, repair surgery or cervical conization can be performed, but improper suturing may cause infertility, so it is rarely used for those who want to have children.

2. For habitual abortion caused by cervical insufficiency, cervical cerclage is performed at 14 to 16 weeks of pregnancy.

3. If you are older and do not want to get pregnant again, and the cervical erosion has been treated, there is no need to repair old cervical lacerations.

2. Nursing of uterine rupture

Uterine rupture is a serious emergency during pregnancy and should not be taken lightly. The care steps for uterine rupture are as follows:

1. Relieve pain, prevent uterine rupture, closely monitor uterine contractions, fetal heart rate and signs of uterine rupture, and report any signs of uterine rupture to the doctor immediately. If intravenous oxytocin is given, it should be stopped immediately. Give oxygen, establish intravenous access, and monitor blood pressure, pulse, and respiration. Give sedatives and drugs to inhibit uterine contractions as prescribed by the doctor, and make preparations for cesarean section.

2. Rescue shock and maintain vital signs. If uterine rupture has occurred, assist the doctor, execute the doctor's orders, and provide effective care.

① Rapidly establish intravenous access, replenish blood volume, and correct acidosis.

②Keep warm, inhale oxygen, and lie flat.

③ Make preoperative preparations as soon as possible.

④ Use large doses of antibiotics during and after surgery to prevent infection.

⑤ Closely observe vital signs and promptly assess blood loss to guide treatment and nursing plans.

3. Reminder

Provide good psychological care and explain to the mother and her family the treatment plan for threatened uterine rupture and uterine rupture as well as the impact on the future. We should express sympathy and understanding for the sadness, resentment and other emotions expressed by the mother and her family. Help them get rid of sadness as soon as possible and stabilize their emotions.
