To compare the degree of bleeding, induration and pain after low molecular weight heparin injection by pressing and non-pressing, so as to provide the basis for clinical nursing. Methods: A total of 97 patients who received subcutaneous injection of LMWH from March to June 2023 were enrolled in this study. Each patient received compression and non-compression methods using self-control method: control side (patient's left abdomen): pressing for 3-5 minutes after injection, experimental side (patient's right abdomen): no compression after injection. The degree of bleeding, induration and pain of the two methods were observed. Results Non-pressing injection is a safe, simple and rapid method, which can meet the needs of clinical nurses, and is worthy of clinical promotion.
