This article describes the nursing experience with a male who was diagnosed with acute type A aortic dissection, underwent total aortic arch replacement surgery and was attended to in the intensive care unit after suffering from the complications of the right calf compartment syndrome. The nursing period is from February 16th to February 28th, 2019. Data collection is conducted through medical record review, observation, interview, and listening skills. The cases are summarized and analyzed for postoperative acute pain, respiratory tract clearance failure, anxiety and other health problems. By providing individual nursing measures such as listening to popular music and playing Marvel movies that the case likes, it helps the case to divert attention from pain; Moreover, we taught the case cough skills and the use of sputum shooting machines; also, we made a rehabilitation exercise plan to increase lung expansion and promote sputum discharge. By means of the nursing measurement mentioned above, the case increasingly understood the disease and prognosis, which helped reduce the case´s anxiety. During the care, it was discovered that taking pictures of the wounds with mobile phones and uploading medical record every day not only allowed the medical care team to monitor wound changes but also helped the patient and his family to understand the wound recovery status and furthermore participate the caring process. We strongly recommend that electronic devices be used appropriately in caring for such cases in the future to narrow the distance between young people and make patients more involved in the care. |
