Effects of pressed abdominal belt on promoting restore of brain organization structure among chronic subdural hematoma patients with trepanation and drainage

Objective To explore the pressed abdominal belt on promoting restore of brain organization structure among chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) patients with trepanation and drainage. Methods From January to November 2017, we selected 72 CSDH patients of neurosurgery in Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University. All of the patients were divided into experimental group and control group with the random number table, 36 cases in each group. Control group carried out routine treatment and nursing care. On the basis of that in control group, experimental group applied pressed abdominal belt until discharge. We compared the restore distance of brain organization structure of patients between two groups three days after surgery. Results Three days after surgery, the restore distance of brain organization structure by imaging of CT was (17.19±7.18) mm in patients of experimental group and (12.83±8.42) mm in patients of control group with a statistical difference (t=2.26, P<0.05) . Conclusions Pressed abdominal belt as a simple and effective adjunctive therapy can promote restore of brain organization structure among CSDH patients with trepanation and drainage.
