Effects of Modified Low-temperature Plasma Method on Perioperative Indicators,Serum Inflammatory Factors and Quality of Life of Tonsillectomy Patients
Objective:To compare the effects of modified low-temperature plasma method on perioperative indicators,serum inflammatory factors,and quality of life in patients undergoing tonsillectomy.Method:A total of 86 patients with tonsillectomy admitted to Xinyu People's Hospital from June 2021 to September 2023 were selected and divided into control group and experimental group according to random number table method,with 43 cases in each group.The control group received bipolar electrocoagulation tonsillectomy,and the experimental group received modified low-temperature plasma tonsillectomy.Perioperative indexes such as surgery time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative white membrane formation and shedding time were compared between the two groups.The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α),serum procalcitonin (PCT) and hypersensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP) before and 5 d after surgery were compared between the two groups.The quality of life scores before and one month after surgery were compared between the two groups.Result:The surgery time,the white membrane formation time and white membrane shedding time in the experimental group were shorter than those in the control group,and the intraoperative blood loss was less than that in the control group,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).At 5 d after surgery,the levels of TNF-α,hs-CRP and PCT in two groups were higher than those before surgery,but those in experimental group were lower than those in control group,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).One month after surgery,the scores of physiological function,vitality,body pain and general health status in two groups were higher than those before surgery,and those in experimental group were higher than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion:Modified low-temperature plasma method in tonsillectomy can shorten the surgery time,the white membrane formation time and white membrane shedding time,reduce the amount of intraoperative bleeding of the patient,reduce postoperative inflammatory reaction,and improve the quality of life of the patient.
