In terms of nursing care for patients who have been bedridden for a long time, attention should be paid to the prevention of bedsores, massage of the lower limbs, and avoiding the occurrence of coughing, etc. The details are as follows:
1. Prevention of bed sores: Pay attention to prevent the formation of bedsores. If the patient can turn over by himself, encourage the patient to turn over on the bed and move the lower limbs. If you cannot turn over by yourself, help the patient turn over every half an hour to prevent infection caused by pressure sores.
Concerning this, Sunlion high-end alternating pressure mattress with pump can help the bedridden patient to turn right or turn left automatically, thus effectively help to prevent sores caused by long-time lying without changing body posture.
2. Limbs massage: Long-term bed rest may also increase the risk of lower limb thrombosis and muscle atrophy, so attention should be paid to massage the patient's lower limbs, which can reduce the risk of thrombosis and muscle atrophy.
Sunlion lymphatic drainage massage pressotherapy machine can provide comfortable automatic compression therapy for bedridden patient's muscles, effective improve lymphatic drainage, enhance blood circulation, decreasing muscles stiffness, reducing the risk of muscle atrophy and thrombosis. The smart automatic compression therapy can reduce nursing cost caused by labor manual massage.
3. Avoid the occurrence of choking cough: patients who have been bedridden for a long time should also pay attention to avoiding the occurrence of choking cough when eating. Try to raise the head of the patient and shake the head of the bed as high as possible. Choking and coughing can cause aspiration pneumonia.
In regards to this, Sunlion high-end alternating pressure mattress with pump also can help raise the head of bedridden patient safely, easily and conveniently.
