The death rate of bedsore in bed for a long time is four times higher than that of ordinary people.
Domestic research shows that the prevalence of bedsore is as high as 5-27% among patients who need to use wheelchairs for long-term bed rest or mobility difficulties. A Shun, 42, suffers from oral cancer. During the treatment, she suffered from adverse drug reactions, leading to hypoxic brain damage. Due to long-term hypoxia, the cerebral cortex was completely destroyed, and the brain stem function was partially damaged. Unfortunately, he became a vegetable. Because the family's economy is not good, the family sent Shun to the Creation Foundation for care, but recently he was hospitalized because of the recurrence of oral cancer, and the bedsore on his back was even bigger. Because Shun reacts to the feeling of pain, he often sees his hand slightly raised to show pain. More than 10% of inpatients have bedsores, and the study also points out that about 14.8% of inpatients have bedsores, and 7. 1% of residents in nursing institutions will have bedsores. In this regard, Dr. Lin Shangxi, a plastic surgeon at Guangxin Hospital, said that bedsores caused by long-term bed rest may even be fatal. The study also found that tens of thousands of patients in Taiwan Province Province died of bedsore-related diseases every year. Because bedsore is often complicated with many fatal complications, such as sepsis and osteomyelitis, the mortality rate of patients is more than 4 times higher than that of ordinary inpatients. Poor long-term activities are the reasons. Pay attention to the warning. Dr. Lin Shangxi explained that bedsore is a common problem for patients with long-term poor physical activity, bed rest, unconsciousness, low resistance to diabetes or fragile skin, weak body or malnutrition. Generally speaking, before the bedsore wound is formed, there are often some abnormal signs, such as redness in some parts that are often pressed for a long time, and it will not fade for more than 30 minutes after the long-term pressing is released, which is an early warning signal that bedsore is about to form. At present, hyperbaric oxygen, infrared therapeutic instrument, negative pressure therapeutic instrument and other high-tech therapeutic equipment are widely used in clinical treatment of bedsore, which can provide the best treatment quality for bedsore. In terms of prevention, decompression air mattress can be used, which has a full-automatic pressure regulation system, conforms to the optimal pressure setting of human body, prevents bedsores caused by long-term bed rest, has no exposed pipes, reduces sensory control problems, further improves the quality of home care, and relieves the pressure of caregivers and their families.
