Esketamine and Nursing combo improves patient care and eases post-surgical pain, has a positive effect on mental health after childbirth and boosts overall recovery in females undergoing C-section surgery.
Along with Nursing care, the use of Esketamine considerably improves post-surgical outcomes for women undergoing C-sections providing fresh insights and guidance for clinical practice, reported a study by Mei Jiang and Jing Xu.
This research, directed at The Second Hospital of Dalian Medical University involved 140 parturients who were randomly divided into a control group and an intervention group. Women in the control group received traditional therapy and standard nursing practice, while the women in the intervention group received Esketamine and comprehensive nursing.
Key findings from the study show that the intervention group experienced notably lower levels of postoperative pain, as indicated by their Visual Analog Scale scores, which averaged 1.86 compared to 3.04 in the control group. Moreover, the scores of the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale for the intervention group were suggestively lower (5.23) than those of the control group (8.11), signifying an encouraging impact on postpartum mental health.
Also, women in the study group exhibited faster physiological recovery and higher overall quality of life, as measured by the SF-36 questionnaire, implying that Esketamine when used along with comprehensive nursing practice not only alleviates pain and depression but also enhances the overall recovery experience, mentioned the researchers.
