The article discussed the experience in looking after a 44-year-old patient with breast cancer combined with peritoneal metastasis. Being the primary nurse, the author looked after the patient from April 1st to April 20th, 2014, collected data by means of physical assessment, interviews and actual care, and summed up such nursing problems as impaired tissue integrity, nutrition less than the body requirements, and anxiety. The author applied the principle of stoma care to resolve the problem where digestive juice was oozing from the gastrostomy tube. This not only gradually reduced the skin injury area, but also allowed the patient to go out for social activities with a relaxed mind. The author makes medical staff was able to provide total parenteral nutrition (TPN) as early as possible, establish a diet plan and choose thick soup to increase the nutrient absorption rate, enabling the patient's weight to increase stably. Concerning anxiety relief, the author sincerely responded to the questions the patient asked and played Buddhist music to ease the patient's tension. The care of canal wounds is one of the independent functions of nursing. Observation of the long-term effects is advised for future study, or expansion of the patient sample number in research scale will contribute to further understanding regarding the advantages and limitations of such wound care. |
