This article recounts the experience of caring for a patient who experienced kidney transplant failure and was being evaluated by the medical team for a return to hemodialysis. The patient exhibited agitation and irritability in response to the prospect of resuming dialysis, prompting the author's attention. The care period for this patient extended from November 14, 2020, to November 25, 2020. Data collection during nursing care involved observation, direct care, physical examinations, medical record reviews, and proactive engagement. Through a comprehensive evaluation encompassing physiological, psychological, spiritual, and social dimensions, significant health problems were identified: 1. Hypervolemia due to the inability to excrete water, 2. Potential risk for infection associated with long-term immunosuppressant use, and 3. Anxiety related to the return to hemodialysis. Personalized interventions were implemented to address these issues. Techniques for hydration control were tailored to the patient's preferences, with a reward system employed to promote compliance. Dietary adjustments were made, and instructions were provided regarding infection signs and preventive measures. Proactive communication with various expert personnel within the medical team helped alleviate the patient's anxiety by offering comprehensive care information and explaining disease treatment plans. The article suggests designating a kidney transplant home nurse in future care scenarios to address patient inquiries and maintain transplanted kidney function, facilitating mental preparation for the possibility of dialysis treatment in the event of transplant failure. This proactive approach enhances the medical team's responsiveness to similar patients in the future. |
