Postoperative care for ectopic pregnancy

Regarding ectopic pregnancy, I believe many women are familiar with it. This is a very harmful gynecological disease. Many women have their normal lives affected by it. Experts say that surgical treatment of ectopic pregnancy is a good method. The following will introduce you to the postoperative care of ectopic pregnancy.

The main points of postoperative care for ectopic pregnancy are as follows:

1. Postoperative psychological care: The most urgent concern of patients after surgery is to understand whether their surgery is consistent with the diagnosis, whether the surgery is successful, and whether it will affect fertility.

2. As long as the patient is conscious after the operation, the nursing staff should greet the patient warmly, greet him/her kindly, and inform him/her truthfully that the operation was successful so that the patient can rest assured during the treatment.

3. Pay attention to blood pressure, pulse, and respiration, measure them once every 30 minutes, and measure them continuously until they are stable. Measure body temperature once every 4 hours, pay attention to whether there is fever, and deal with it in time if there is fever.

4. Keep the dressing clean and dry, change it promptly when it is contaminated, and report to the doctor if there is excessive exudation.

5. Strengthen basic care to keep the vulva dry, prevent retrograde infection, turn the patient over regularly, take the patient to a semi-recumbent position after blood pressure stabilizes, and get out of bed and move around as appropriate after the urinary catheter is removed.

Discharge Instructions:

(1) Dietary guidance: Provide a high-protein, high-calorie, high-vitamin, and easily digestible diet.

(2) Rest and activity: How long the patient needs to rest after surgery depends on the patient's physical and work conditions. Generally, the patient can engage in work other than heavy physical labor one week after surgery.

(3) Outpatient follow-up: Patients with a history of ectopic pregnancy are more likely to have another ectopic pregnancy. At the same time, patients who want to have children should receive regular outpatient follow-up.
