"A patient's fart in the operation caused an operating room fire!" Recently, this news was screened online. Don't think it was a joke. Media reports, after several months of investigation, the author discovered the cause of the accident at the Tokyo Medical University School of Medicine in Shinjuku, Japan. In the case of a female patient undergoing laser surgery, a fart was accidentally placed in contact with the laser beam to cause a fire.

The operating room is an environment with many strict requirements for details, which can be dangerous if you are not careful. Gao Lilian, head nurse of the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University, pointed out that the hygienic degree and length of nails are one aspect.

Looking through the "Operating Room Nursing", you can see: "Nurse nails must not exceed 0.1cm in length" and the patient's nail length is also standard.

For Gao Lilian, who is working in surgery all the year round, the operating room is a sterile environment, and the nails are easy to hide, so they should not be too long and must be cleaned and disinfected. For the patient, the blood oxygen concentration needs to be monitored during the operation. There is a sensor on the finger grip of the monitoring instrument. If the nail is too long, the sensor is not touched or the sensor is touched, the monitoring effect is affected.

"Secondly, nails are also a window for us to observe the safety of patients during surgery." Gao Lilian said that after surgical anesthesia, patients lose consciousness and need to observe whether their blood circulation is normal at any time. Nail is one of the observation points. "When it comes to this, I would like to remind you that some young girls now apply nail polish and nail art, which will affect the safety observation during the operation. We will ask them to dispose of it in advance."

Gao Lilian went on to say that the nails are long and it is easy to hide dirt and bacteria. But the nails can't be cut too short, otherwise you can not only protect your fingers, but also help you. The soft tissue in the front of the finger is not covered with nails, and the tip of the nail will grow inward. In severe cases, it will induce paronychia and is also susceptible to fungal infection. This is especially important for people with diabetes.

"Sugar Friends" means that the (toe) nails are improperly trimmed, which can cause skin ulceration, infection, and finger nails to cut too short to cause paronychia. Gao Lilian said that the correct method of trimming the nails is not too short, especially the nail horns on both sides should not be cut off. The old finger nails are too hard. They can be soaked in water for a while before trimming, softening the nails. .
