概括
电动手暖器改善了乳腺癌患者的舒适度,这些患者接受了头皮冷却,以防止化疗引起的脱发. 这项试点研究发现,使用EHW可以提高热量和整体舒适度,这表明有可能改善治疗坚持.
科学领域:
- 在瘤学瘤学.
- 患者护理 患者护理
- 医疗器械 医疗器械
背景情况:
- 化疗诱导的脱发 (CIA) 是癌症患者的一个重大挑战.
- 头皮冷却 (SC) 减少了CIA,但由于不良事件而导致的中止率很高.
- 在SC期间改善患者舒适度对于治疗坚持至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 评估电动手温器 (EHW) 在提高乳腺癌 (BC) 患者的热舒适度 (TC),感官舒适度 (SCo) 和一般舒适度 (GC) 中的作用.
- 评估EHW在化疗期间对患者舒适度的影响.
主要方法:
- 一项试点研究涉及40名接受新型辅助化疗的乳腺癌早期患者.
- 患者被随机分配到使用EHW或在SC期间处于观察组.
- 在每次化疗输液后评估舒适度 (TC,SCo,GC).
主要成果:
- 与对照组 (50%) 相比,在EHW组 (79%) 中,有利的热应显著高于对照组 (50%) (OR 3.79,p<0.001).

Decreased Body Temperature
624
A decreased body temperature can occur in patients with hypothermia and frostbite. Heat loss with extended cold exposure overpowers the body's ability to create heat, resulting in hypothermia. Core temperature readings help classify hypothermia. Mild hypothermia is temperatures between 32 °C (89.6 °F) and 35°C (95 °F) and is caused by impaired thermoregulation. Moderate hypothermia is temperatures between 28 C (82.4 °F) and 32 °C (89.6 °F) caused by...

Here is a stepwise guide to assessing the body temperature at the temporal artery using a temporal artery thermometer
Step 1: Perform hand hygiene and don a fresh pair of gloves to prevent cross-infection and ensure patient safety.
Step 2: Explain the procedure to the patient to establish trust. Clear communication establishes trust with the patient, ensures they understand what to expect, promotes cooperation, and enhances comfort during the procedure.
Step 3: Assess the patient's...
