From the birth examination, you will hear many nouns that have never been heard before. For example, Tang Shai, such as internal inspection, such as preparing leather.

What is leather preparation?

To be honest, other nouns can be roughly guessed from the literal meaning, but the word "prepare skin" is really not understood by those who have not experienced it. Is it the same meaning with the skin test? In fact, when you know the meaning of prepare skin, you will feel extremely embarrassed. If the process of "prepare skin" is operated by a male doctor or a male nurse, it will be even more embarrassing!

Preparing skin is simply shaving, but it's not as simple as shaving. Before the operation, shave the hair of the corresponding parts, clean the skin at the same time, and avoid infection after the hand.

Benefits of leather preparation

1、 Convenient delivery operation

Shaving the pubic hair can facilitate the operation of doctors and avoid many troubles. After skin preparation, it is more convenient for doctors to observe and deal with various emergencies in time.

2、 Good for cleaning and disinfection

Whether before or after surgery, shaving is more conducive to cleaning and disinfection. In particular, caesarean section in the postoperative need to insert catheter, can be better than not shaving operation!

3、 Reduce the infection rate of wound and newborn baby after operation

There are many bacteria hidden in the thick hair of human body. Skin preparation can reduce the number of bacteria without damaging the skin, so as to reduce the infection rate of wound and newborn baby.

What are the preparation methods?

1. shaving method

Before the operation, prepare the skin once a day, change the sterile towel package every time for 3 consecutive days. This is the most traditional method of skin preparation, which is easy to cause skin damage and bacterial migration, causing pain and other discomfort to patients, and greatly increasing the workload of nurses.

2. Chemical depilation

Depilation emulsion is used for depilation only one day before operation.

3. Leather preparation method

The skin preparation device is a kind of instrument with two rows of cutting heads. In the process of shaving, the row close to the skin does not move, while the upper row moves rapidly to achieve the function of cutting hair. This is the most widely used skin preparation method, which can effectively reduce the damage to the epidermis, thus reducing the infection of surgical incision.

Some netizens said about their skin preparation experience: 'it's been said that children should be prepared for skin preparation for a long time, but I didn't go to my heart until I was finished. I knew that the so-called "skin preparation" was to shave the pubic hair. It's better to shave the hair by myself, but it was a stranger who met me by chance. What's more, the man who prepared my skin was a male doctor. I never felt depressed, because I felt like a plucked hen, ready to be slaughtered. At that time, I really wanted to dig a hole to drill in. I felt very strange and uncomfortable. '

It's really embarrassing to have a skin preparation experience like this, but considering that skin preparation is good for mom and baby who have a caesarean section, and the doctor also completes his / her work, can you be a little relieved?

What pregnant mothers do:

1、 Shower the day before skin preparation and prepare for the whole body cleaning

2、 Shower with warm water after skin preparation to reduce skin dirt

3、 Put on clean clothes and trousers after shower, do not apply any skin care products

4、 No bath is allowed before and after skin preparation to prevent infection caused by bacteria ascending through vagina

5、 If you are not used to it after skin preparation, you will get itchy. You can't use your fingernails to scratch hard. You can use your finger belly to massage your skin.

Some mothers may not understand: why do I have a normal birth, and you shave me?

That's because some hospitals should be ready for caesarean section at any time because they can't continue to have a normal birth due to possible abnormal conditions during delivery. But don't worry too much, because more and more mothers who have a good birth don't need to prepare skin~~

It also reminds pregnant women who are about to give birth that they need to know something they will encounter in advance so as not to panic during delivery. It also helps to overcome the fear before operation. I wish pregnant mothers a smooth delivery and babies a healthy and healthy life.
