Of course, the specific situation needs to be analyzed according to the condition and postoperative recovery.
The critical period of replantation of severed fingers is 7- 10 days, and the critical period of finger reconstruction is 7- 10 days.
Absolute bed rest is required, and smoking, drinking and fasting foods or drinks that stimulate vasoconstriction are prohibited. After replantation of severed fingers, if the fingers are entangled and survive, the fingers will be obviously red and swollen at first, and the skin will fall off and peel off repeatedly, mainly due to poor blood circulation of fingers and skin malnutrition. Of course, there will be times of numbness. Therefore, local hot compress, physical therapy, baking electricity, oral administration of some drugs to improve circulation, and gradually recover in about half a year.
There is not much difference in function, mainly because you may feel a little rough after just finishing that one or two years. If the appearance is good after multifunctional exercise, there is generally no big problem.
Nursing points after replantation of severed fingers
The key point of nursing after replantation is that the patient must stay in bed absolutely, because after that, he has a very critical problem, that is, vasospasm, embolism or vascular rupture. If patients get up, get out of bed or walk frequently, it will lead to changes in blood pressure, which will lead to vasoconstriction, spasm or rupture of blood vessels. This is a very dangerous question. Therefore, first of all, we must convince patients to stay in bed absolutely.
The second patient needs to be in a smoke-free and non-irritating environment. Because we now know that nicotine and spicy.
It will have an effect on blood vessels, especially nicotine, which has a very obvious effect on vasoconstriction. Then smoking or secondhand smoke will lead to intractable vasospasm and replantation of severed fingers will fail. So these two points are very critical.
There is also the insulation of the severed finger, so that the severed finger is in a relatively warm environment, which will expand the blood vessels, and then the survival rate after the severed finger will be higher.
