Key points of nursing work for patients in operating room

As an important department of the hospital, the operating room undertakes important medical rescue tasks, which is of great significance to the control of the patient's condition. During the daily work of the operating room, good nursing guidance can ensure the smooth implementation of the patient's surgical treatment. Based on this, how to effectively improve the comprehensive quality of nursing work in the operating room has always been a key topic of concern for nurses. In this article, the author integrates and summarizes the relevant key points of nursing work in the operating room from the perspective of nurses, hoping to ensure the continuous optimization and full improvement of patient nursing work.

1. The importance of carrying out patient operating room nursing work

During the implementation of daily work in the operating room, good operating room nursing can ensure the smooth progress of the patient's surgery. At the same time, it is conducive to helping patients avoid and prevent adverse events during surgery, which is of great significance for the smooth implementation of the expected surgical plan and the protection of patient life safety. From a global perspective, actively carrying out operating room nursing work can ensure the summary and sorting of patient nursing work experience, which is of great auxiliary significance for the effective implementation of surgical treatment.

2. Key points of patient nursing in operating room

1. Monitoring patients’ vital signs

The main goal of operating room nursing is to ensure the safety of patients' lives. Therefore, nurses should pay attention to keeping records of close monitoring of patients' vital signs during the implementation of nursing work. Practice has shown that the advancement of related work can effectively promote the continuous optimization and full improvement of nursing work, which is of great value for the realization of expected nursing goals and the smooth implementation of surgical treatment for patients. During the implementation of nursing work, nurses should observe the parameters of relevant medical devices and use this as a starting point to evaluate the patient's life during surgery, which has important auxiliary value for the targeted adjustment and optimization of nursing work.

2. Prepare the medicines

During the implementation of nursing work in the operating room, in order to ensure the safety of patients' lives, nurses should pay attention to the reasonable preparation of surgical drugs. During this period, they should count the drugs during the operation according to the content of the patient's operation to ensure that the drugs are adequately prepared. In this process, for some patients who need to be infused with blood products and fluids during the operation, nurses can preheat them in time before the operation to make them close to the patient's body temperature. This can reduce the cold stimulation caused to the patient during the infusion, which plays an important role in promoting the smooth progress of the patient's infusion work.

3. Provide emotional comfort to patients

During the surgical treatment, some patients are given local anesthesia. Based on this, these patients generally retain their autonomy during the operation. Therefore, in order to further ensure the improvement and optimization of patients' surgical cooperation, nurses should evaluate and analyze patients' emotional problems during the implementation of operating room nursing work, and actively use encouraging language to guide and comfort patients' emotions. This can help patients eliminate the tension caused by surgery in time, which has a good auxiliary significance for improving patients' nursing cooperation during surgery and lays a solid foundation for the implementation of patients' surgical treatment. On this issue, when patients enter the operating room, nurses should introduce the operating room environment in time to eliminate the tension caused by the unfamiliar environment to patients. At the same time, during the operation, nurses should communicate with patients in time, ask patients about their conscious feelings and answer their doubts in time, which is very helpful for optimizing patients' cooperation during surgery.

4. Implement patient circuit care

As an important task of operating room nursing, the implementation of medical circuit nursing has a good promotion significance for the smooth progress of patient surgery and the reasonable maintenance of life safety. During the specific work, nurses should pay attention to the relevant pipeline conditions and effectively fix the pipelines. During the surgical treatment, we should actively pay attention to the patient's pipeline conditions to avoid knotting, blockage and falling off. It has a good auxiliary significance for the smooth progress of patient drug infusion and is conducive to fully protecting the patient's life safety.

5. Take precautions against hypothermia

In operating room nursing work, nurses should pay attention to preheating the operating table and use a thermal blanket to cover the patient's non-surgical parts during surgery. This can effectively ensure that the patient is warm during surgery, which can significantly reduce the possibility of hypothermia during surgery, and is of great significance for the patient's postoperative health recovery and the prevention of adverse events.

In general, in order to ensure the continuous optimization of patients' physical and mental health during surgery, nurses should analyze and sort out the implementation plan of operating room nursing work, so as to effectively summarize the key points of nursing work implementation, in order to promote the full extension and refinement of operating room nursing work.
