Core Tip

Core Tip: Postoperative massive hemorrhage in oral cancer surgery, driven by anatomical complexity and comorbidities, demands structured nursing interventions. Critical components include preoperative risk stratification, intraoperative hemostatic collaboration, and postoperative multimodal monitoring. Prompt suture removal, pressure hemostasis, and blood product support enabled rapid hemorrhage control. Integrated psychological care and rehabilitation ensured functional recovery. Standardized workflows are indispensable for optimizing outcomes in high-risk oral cancer surgeries.
