麻醉殘餘氣體對恢復室護理人員乎衡能力之影響

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the waste anesthetic gas has influence on the standing balance of nurses working at the recovery room. The experimental group consisted of 26 nurses at the recovery room and the control group was 25 nurses in the ordinary ward. The sway index, anterior-posterior and lateral maximal sway distance of center of pressure were recorded before and after working eight hours under the following four conditions: 1. eye opened with stable plateform, 2. eye closed with stable plateform, 3. eye opened with tilting plateform, 4. eye closed with tilting plateform. Besides, the accuracy of tracing moving target in three different velocity were also tested.There were significant differences in the balance control (t-test p<0.05) between the two groups under the condition of I, 2, 3, and low velocity tracing target, but no significant difference in the morning sway index difference between the two groups after three days of consecutive testing. The conclusion of this study is that the trace anesthetic gas exhaled by patient had significant influence on the standing balance of nurses working at recovery room. Yet, no accumulating effect was noted. It is suggested that the air quality in the operation and recovery room should be improved.
