Abstract: Objective:To discuss the effects of wet packing with phentolamine dilution locally on the pain in-duced by intravenous transfusion extravasation of calcium gluconate. Method: All 60 patients were administered with intravenous dripping of calcium gulconate and suffering from transfusion extravasation, divided to two group. The experiment group (30 cases) received wet packing with phentolamine dilution locally and the control group (30 cases) hot-wet compression with 50%magnesium sulphuricum locally, both groups ceased wet packing till the red-ness, swelling, heat and the pain of the local were disappeared and the tissue became soften. Result:The experiment group was superior to the control group in the effects of relieving the pain (P<0.05), the experiment group was shorter than the control group in pain relieving time and the difference between both groups was notable (P<0.05). Conclusion:Wet packing with phentolamine dilution locally could relieve the pain induced by intravenous transfu-sion extravasation of calcium gluconate effectively.
