Abstract: 【Abstract】 Objective To observe the therapeutic effects of infrared in abdominal incision healing of gastro-enteric tumor patients postoperative. Methods〓250 gastro-enteric tumor patients were assigned to two groups, control group and experimental one. The average healing time of abdominal incision, infection ratio of incision, and the average in-hospital cost were observed. For control group patient, the abdominal incision was routinely disinfected with Iodophors q2d till the stitches were removed and for experimental group patient, irradiation of the incision with infrared ray lamp for 20 minutes twice a day was added in addition. Results〓The average healing time of abdominal incision of experimental group patient was 6.92±1.81 days, which was significantly shorter than that (7.99±3.91 days) of control group patient (P<0.01). The infection ratio of incision of experimental group patient was significantly lower than that of control group patient with 2.19% vs 11.50% (P<0.05). And the average in-hospital cost of experimental group patient was not higher than that of control group patient with 5.61±0.70(ten thousand yuan) vs 5.64±0.73 (ten thousand yuan) (P>0.05). Conclusion〓Irradiation can shorten the average healing time of the abdominal incision of gastro-enteric tumor patients postoperative, and can lower the infection of incision, but not increase the average in-hospital cost.
