Amniotic fluid aspiration is a less commonly used examination method, which involves selecting a long needle to penetrate the abdomen and extract amniotic fluid from the amniotic cavity. After extracting the amniotic fluid, it is necessary to wrap it with gauze. Do people want to know how many days it takes for the amniocentesis gauze to fall off?
When doing amniocentesis, the needle used is relatively small, so the needle hole is also not large. After completion, if there are no other issues, the gauze can be removed after 24 hours. If there is bleeding or redness in the needle hole, it is necessary to delay the removal of the gauze. Using gauze during amniocentesis can prevent the phenomenon of needle hole cleaning.
When removing the gauze, be sure to clean the needle hole and be careful not to get it wet to avoid infection. And when this phenomenon occurs, it is also necessary to pay attention to rest more, have a balanced diet, and develop good habits in daily life, otherwise it is easy to harm the development of the fetus.
Due to the small size of the wound caused by amniocentesis, recovery will be faster. Generally speaking, it takes about a week to recover. When performing this surgery, it is best to observe it in the hospital to avoid other adverse situations. After the surgery, it is important to rest well and avoid physical labor to avoid affecting the normal development of the fetus.
