Abstract
ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of two different temperature rinses on bladder spasm during continuous bladder irrigation after transurethral electroprostatectomy (TURP).
MethodsThe clinical data of 80 patients diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and admitted to our hospital between September 2020 and April 2022 were carefully selected. These patients were then divided into two groups, namely the control group and the study group, based on their odd or even hospitalization numbers. Each group consisted of 40 cases. The frequency of bladder spasm, the flushingtime, the amount of flushing solution used and the nursing satisfaction of patients in the two groups were observed during bladder irrigation.
ResultsThe frequency of bladder spasms in the study group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.001). The flushing time and amount of flushing solution used in the study group were significantly reduced compared to those in the control group (all P<0.001). Postoperative nursing satisfaction was significantly higher in the study group compared to the control group (P<0.001).
ConclusionsFor patients with BPH undergoing TURP, implementing continuous bladder irrigation using a solution maintained at body temperature can effectively mitigate the risk of bladder spasms, minimize fluid consumption, reduce flushing duration, facilitate recovery, and ultimately enhance patient satisfaction. Therefore, this approach holds significant potential for clinical application.
