Abstract

This study is to investigate the risk factors analysis and nursing strategies for postoperative bleeding of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Totally, 240 BPH patients after surgical excision admitted to Hengshui People's Hospital between January 2019 and January 2020 were recruited. Of the 240 BPH patients, 20 had postoperative bleeding, accounting for 8.3% of all enrollments. Risk factors for postoperative bleeding included large prostate, diabetes, hypertension, urinary tract infection within 1 week before surgery, and the absence of epidural analgesia pumps. There were 87 patients receiving routine nursing (routine group) and 153 patients receiving routine nursing plus hemorrhage prevention care (study group). The study group had fewer cases of postoperative bleeding than the routine group. The influencing factors of postoperative bleeding in patients with prostatic hyperplasia include systemic and local factors, and corresponding hemorrhage prevention care should be performed based on the principle of evidence-based care to reduce the risk of postoperative bleeding.
