To explore the effect of infrared irradiation combined with mannitol and Kinesiology tape on postoperative swelling and pain in patients with a periarticular ankle fracture.
The research subjects of this study were 88 patients with periarticular ankle fracture treated by surgery in the Department of Orthopedics of Baoding No.1 Central Hospital from October, 2019 to May, 2021. They were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group based on the random number table method, with 44 cases in each group. All patients were treated after the operation. Patients in the control group were treated with conventional drugs; while those in the observation group were provided with infrared irradiation combined with mannitol and Kinesiology tape. Further comparison was conducted on the degree of swelling, pain and satisfaction after treatment at three, five and seven days after operation.
At three, five and seven days after operation, the cross-section diameter of the injured limb was significantly smaller in the observation group than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (0. 05). The degree of pain in both groups was significantly lower at three, five and seven days after operation than that before treatment; moreover, the degree of pain in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (0. 05). Besides, the comparison of posttreatment satisfaction in both groups after treatment revealed that the total satisfaction of patients in the observation group (97.73%) was higher than that in the control group (79.55%), with a statistically significant difference (0.05).
Infrared irradiation combined with mannitol and Kinesiology tape can effectively alleviate postoperative swelling and pain of patients with a periarticular ankle fracture.
探讨红外线照射联合甘露醇及肌内效贴布对踝关节周围骨折患者术后肿胀及疼痛的影响。
本研究的研究对象为2019年10月至2021年5月在保定市第一中心医院骨科接受手术治疗的88例踝关节周围骨折患者。采用随机数字表法将其随机分为观察组和对照组,每组44例。所有患者均在术后接受治疗。对照组患者采用常规药物治疗;观察组患者采用红外线照射联合甘露醇及肌内效贴布治疗。对术后3天、5天和7天的肿胀程度、疼痛程度及治疗满意度进行进一步比较。
术后3天、5天和7天,观察组患肢横断面直径明显小于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。两组术后3天、5天和7天的疼痛程度均明显低于治疗前;而且,观察组的疼痛程度明显低于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。此外,两组治疗后治疗满意度比较显示,观察组患者的总满意度(97.73%)高于对照组(79.55%),差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。
红外线照射联合甘露醇及肌内效贴布可有效减轻踝关节周围骨折患者的术后肿胀及疼痛。
