Influence of two different lubricant on degree of comfort among young and middle-aged by inserting catheter drainage tube

Objective To study the influence of two different lubricant on degree of comfort among young and middle-aged by inserting catheter drainage tube,in order to decrease iatrogenic damage and urinary tract infections.Methods A total of 220 young and middle-aged received catheter drainage tube were divided into iodophor lubrication group(observation group)and paraffin oil lubrication group(control group),110 cases respectively.Blood pressure(BP),heart rate(HR),feelings and first time urine testing after indwelling catheter were recorded.Results The incidence of microscopic hematuria in observation group was lower than that in control group,the patients' discomfortableness during the intubation was also lower in observation group.Conclusions O.5% iodophor lubrication can reduce the urethral catheter mucesal injury,obviously improve patients' comfort with indwelling catheterization.
