Surgical risk in Wuhan University of Science and Technology Eye Hospital
The Eye Hospital of Wuhan University of Science and Technology is a professional eye hospital, providing all kinds of eye surgery and treatment. As in other hospitals, even in a highly professional medical environment, there are certain surgical risks. The following is a detailed description of the surgical risks of Wuhan University of Science and Technology Eye Hospital from several aspects.
1. Potential infection risk
During the operation, the patient's eyeball will be exposed to the external environment, thus increasing the risk of infection. Even the smallest surgery can cause infection. The hospital has taken a series of strict disinfection measures to reduce the risk of infection. The surgical instruments will be strictly sterilized and sterilized before the operation, and the medical staff will also wear sterile gloves and masks throughout the operation. In addition, patients also need to receive preoperative examinations to ensure good health and reduce the risk of infection.
However, the individual differences of patients and the complexity of surgery itself may also lead to the risk of potential infection or postoperative infection. If the patient has symptoms of eye infection after surgery, he should seek help from the hospital immediately.
2. Risk of visual impairment
Eye surgery involves the patient's vision, so vision damage is a serious risk. Although the hospital will strictly control the surgical technology and equipment, it is still unable to completely eliminate this risk. Before the operation, the doctor will evaluate the feasibility and risk of the operation according to the specific situation of the patient, and fully communicate with the patient. During the operation, the doctor will try his best to avoid adverse effects on vision. However, individual differences and unpredictable factors may lead to postoperative visual impairment.
After surgery, patients should closely observe their own vision. If there is any abnormality, they should consult the doctor in time. The hospital will provide appropriate treatment and care to reduce or repair the visual impairment.
3. Risk of postoperative complications
Complications after ophthalmic surgery are another risk that needs attention. Different types of surgery may lead to different types of complications, such as corneal transplantation surgery may appear rejection. The hospital will fully explain the possible complications to the patient before the operation, and assess the risks and benefits of the operation according to the specific situation of the patient.
After surgery, the hospital will provide appropriate care and follow-up to ensure that patients can find and deal with postoperative complications in a timely manner. If possible complications occur, the patient should seek help from the hospital as soon as possible.
4. Risk of preoperative examination and surgical preparation
Different types of ophthalmic surgery have different requirements for preoperative examination and surgical preparation. Inconformity or inadequacy of surgical preparation may increase the risk of surgery. For example, if the patient does not perform corneal imaging examination as required by the doctor before surgery, it may lead to the inability to accurately locate the surgical area during surgery, increasing the difficulty and risk of surgery.
Therefore, patients should be checked and prepared in strict accordance with the doctor's requirements before surgery to ensure the smooth operation and minimize the risk.
Conclusion: As a professional ophthalmic hospital, Wuhan University of Science and Technology Eye Hospital also has some potential risks in ophthalmic surgery risks. These risks include infection, visual impairment and postoperative complications. However, the hospital tries to reduce these risks through strict surgical and disinfection measures, as well as preoperative examination and surgical preparation. After surgery, patients should pay close attention to their physical conditions and seek help from the hospital in a timely manner to ensure that any possible complications are handled in a timely manner.
