Abstract: Objective To study the effect of using self adhesive elastic bandage to stop bleeding in the elderly patients with coronary heart disease after taking aspirin for a long time,and to analyze its advantages. Methods Totally 120 elderly patients with coronary disease who did physical examination in department of geriatrics in Zhejiang hospital during September,2014 to June,2016 were randomly divided into experimental group(60 cases)and control group(60 cases).The experimental group was given the self adhesive elastic bandage for 5 minutes.The control group was given the traditional infusion plaster with additional pressure for 5 minutes.The bleeding of puncture and surrounding skin,hematoma,24 h congestion,the degree of comfort,the whole blood sampling and pressing time were compared between the two groups.Two independent samples t-test was used in the measurement data,the numeration data was analyzed with χ² test and expressed as a percentage.Mann-Whitney U test was used for ranked data.With P<0.05,there was a statistically significant difference. Results There were 5 cases of bleeding in the experimental group accounting for 8.3,less than 15 cases in the control group.No hematoma was found in the experimental group which was significantly less than 6 cases in the control group.The 24 h congestion incidence rate of the experimental group was 0,significantly less than that in the control group(P<0.05).The comfort degree of the experimental group was significantly better than that of the control group(P<0.05).The blood sampling time in the experimental group was significantly shorter than that in the control group(P<0.01). Conclusion Using the self adhesive elastic bandage can reduce the bleeding,congestion incidence and other complications of elderly patients who took aspirin for a long time.It also improves the working efficiency of nurses,makes the patient feel comfortable and satisfied.It is worthy of clinical promotion.
