The case report describes the nursing experience of a patient with end stage of renal disease with hemodialysis from May 08 to May 20, 2006. The author utilized Gorden's 11 multi-functional health scales for collecting information; to analyze and sort out the problems based on his physical assessment, close observation and intensive interviews with the patient. The findings during nursing evaluation indicate that malnutrition, lack of medical knowledge (i.e. the scratches and red rashes around the blood vessel) coupled with potential danger of infection were recorded as key factors contributing to the patient' anxiety status due mainly to the lack of concrete associated medical information and attention. In conclusion, the major nursing problems are: patient' malnutrition, inadequacy of knowledge and the potential danger of infection. Through caretaker' active care and concern, more lectures or related activities are suggested to offer them know-how, while easing their anxiety status. In addition, medical booklets can be delivered regularly to clarify and reinforce their medical understanding. With the increasing cases of patients with end stage renal hemodialysis, this case report may provide some valuable information for the nursing staff in order to enhance their ability to provide comprehensive care. |
