Guihong Wu, Wei Qin

Abstract


Objective To investigate the effect of early personalized intake and eating on patients with thyroid cancer after surgery. Methods 164 patients with thyroid cancer undergoing surgical treatment were selected as the study objects and divided into observation group and control group. The control group returned to the ward 2 hours and 6 hours after surgery to guide the patients to take water and eat. After the observation group returned to the ward after surgery, Steward awakening score was performed first, and the Watian drinking water test was performed again. The results showed that those who reached grade Ⅱ were instructed to take in water and eat, while those who did not reached grade Ⅱ were instructed to conduct integrated rounds of medical care, and the patient's condition was evaluated again, and the patients were instructed to eat according to the situation. The intake and eating time of the observation group were counted. The incidence of thirst and hunger at 2h and 6h after returning to the ward, as well as postoperative discomfort, complications, length of stay and satisfaction were compared between the two groups. Results There were significant differences in the intake and eating time of the observation group. The incidence of thirst and hunger at 2h and 6h after returning to the ward of the observation group were lower than those of the control group (P < 0.05), and the satisfaction of hospitalization was higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The safety assessment of patients with thyroid cancer after surgery before guiding them to take in and eat early, and then determining the time and type of taking in and eating according to the patient's condition can better ensure the safety of patients, reduce discomfort and improve treatment satisfaction. This practice is worthy of clinical reference and promotion.
