[A retrospective study of factors influencing incision healing time in postoperative patients with spinal canal tumors].

Objective

To explore the factors influencing incision healing time in postoperative patients with spinal canal tumors.

Methods

The clinical data of 116 patients with spinal canal tumors (60 males and 56 females, with an average age of 44±16 years) in neurosurgery department of Henan People's Hospital from December 2017 to February 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The influencing factors of incision healing time were analyzed by Logistic regression.

Results

Univariate analysis showed that limb muscle strength (P=0.011), the location of tumors (P=0.031), indwelling catheters (P=0.029), spinal neural function (P=0.000), Types of spinal canal tumors (P=0.006) , Diabetes (P=0.043) ,BMI (P=0.001) , Length of surgical incision (P=0.006) ,Cerebrospinal fluid leakage (P=0.001) , the operation duration (P=0.002) presented statistical significance; Logistic regression analysis showed that there were significant differences in Types of spinal canal tumors (P=0.038) , Length of surgical incision (P=0.000) , Cerebrospinal fluid leakage (P=0.004) , spinal neural function (P=0.002) and the operation duration (P=0.046).

Conclusions

Extremity muscle strength, the location of tumors, indwelling catheters, the operation duration, spinal neural function, Types of spinal canal tumors, Diabetes, BMI, Length of surgical incision, Cerebrospinal fluid leakage were influencing factors of incision healing time in postoperative patients with spinal canal tumors; Among which Types of spinal canal tumors, Length of surgical incision, Cerebrospinal fluid leakage, Spinal neural function and The operation duration were independent influencing factors.
