Abstract

Objective To explore the best method to relieve thirst in patients after laparoscopic cholecystectomy through comparison. Methods 60 patients after undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy were randomized into Q-tip group and spraying group. In the Q-tip group, warm boiled water-absorbing Q-tips were applied to embrocate the lips of patients and in the spraying group warm boiled water was sprayed into the oral cavity of the patients once per hour or given when needed within 6 hours after operation so as to compare which method was more effective to relieve thirst. Results Operations were performed well in both groups and there was no postoperative complication. It was shown that warm boiled water spraying achieved better result in relieving thirst 6 hours after operation (P<0.05). Conclusions Warm boiled water spraying is more effective than warm boiled water-absorbing Q-tip unction to relieve thirst in patients after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
