What are the nursing measures for bladder cancer?

(1) Nursing for bladder cancer: For patients undergoing urinary tract diversion, the intestines should be prepared 3 days before surgery. Change to a low-residue semi-liquid diet, and change to a liquid diet 1 day before surgery. Vitamin K should be supplemented. Low-pressure saline enema should be performed daily, and cleansing enema should be performed the night before surgery until the discharge is clear.

(2) Closely observe the patient's condition after surgery to prevent and detect bleeding and shock at an early stage.

(3) Connect the wound drainage tube, cystostomy tube, and ureteral drainage tube, mark them, and secure them properly to prevent them from shifting, falling into the body, or coming out. Understand the directions and functions of various tubes, do not connect them incorrectly, do not put pressure on the tubes, and do not kink them. Keep them unobstructed. Bladder cancer care requires careful observation of the color, properties, and amount of the drainage fluid. Various tubes should be sterilized, and drainage bottles and urine bags should be replaced daily to prevent contamination. Strictly implement aseptic operations.

(4) Psychological care: Bladder cancer care provides patients with information about the tumor and emotional support. For patients who undergo total cystectomy, urinary tract diversion and reconstruction, the necessity of the surgery should be explained, and if the diversion is handled properly, it will not affect their daily life and work, so as to strengthen their confidence in treatment.
