Application of personalized diet in patients with liver cirrhotic ascites
Objective To investigate the effect of personalized diet in patients with liver cirrhosis ascites.Methods A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted in 103 liver cirrhotic ascites patients admitted to Ruikang Hospital Affiliated to Guangxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from February 2021 to June 2022.The patients were divided into a combination group(51 cases)and a control group(52 cases)by random number table method.The control group was treated with conventional nursing intervention + infrared physiotherapy instrument.On this basis,the combined group was treated with personalized diet program intervention.Both groups were treated for three weeks.The clinical indexes,degree of abdominal distension,and grade of ascites were compared between the two groups before and after intervention.Results After intervention,the abdominal circumference and bilateral ankle average circumference of the two groups were lower than those before intervention,and the combined group were lower than those of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Urine volume at 24 h after intervention was higher in both groups than that before intervention,and the combined group was higher than the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).After intervention,the abdominal distension grading of the two groups was better than that before intervention,and that of the combined group was better than that of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).After intervention,the degree of ascites of the two groups was better than that before intervention,and that of the combined group was better than that of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Infrared physiotherapy instrument combined with personalized diet can effectively reduce abdominal circumference,bilateral ankle average circumference,increase urine volume,and improve abdominal distension and ascites grade in patients with liver cirrhosis ascites.
