Abstract:
Objective To explore the perioperative nursing for patients with acute appendicitis undergoing transanal super minimally invasive surgery (SMIS).
Methods The clinical data of 12 patients who received transanal SMIS in the Department of Gastroenterology, the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from April 28, 2020 to May 22, 2025 were retrospectively analyzed.The experience of preoperative nursing, intraoperative cooperation and postoperative nursing was summarized, and patients′ nursing satisfaction was evaluated.
Results All 12 patients successfully completed SMIS.The immediate relief rate of postoperative abdominal pain was 100%, with an average hospital stay of 3.2 days.No postoperative complications such as bleeding or perforation occurred. All patients showed good perioperative compliance and high nursing satisfaction.During the 1-month postoperative follow-up, appendiceal function was well preserved in all patients, and no recurrence was observed.
Conclusion Targeted nursing based on the characteristics of super minimally invasive surgery and the pathophysiological features of patients with acute appendicitis plays a vital role in ensuring the smooth implementation of SMIS and improving therapeutic outcomes.
