一位肺結核患者隔離期間的護理經驗

Nursing Experience in a Patient with Pulmonary Tuberculosis During Isolation

本文敘述一位50歲女性病人因肺結核住隔離病房期間，筆者以Gordon十一項健康功能評估為工具，確立病人有體溫過高、焦慮、營養少於身體所需、社交隔離等健康問題，在護理過程中以症狀護理減輕生理不適及改善營養狀態外，更運用關懷、同理心及充分說明疾病照護過程等方式，協助病人勇敢面對疾病，克服藥物的副作用、活動空間及訪客的限制等，順利渡過2週隔離期並于返家後持續接受治療。

The article discusses nursing experience in a 50 year- old female patient with pulmonary tuberculosisliving in an isolation ward. The writer used theGordon 11 Healthy FunctionAppraisals as a tool, establishing thepatient's nursing problems as: hyperthermia, anxiety, imbalanced nutrition (less than body requirements) ,andsocial isolation. The nursing process reduced the physiology of illness by the improvement of the patient'snutrition condition, concern, empathy, and full explanation of the disease with an emphasis on assisting thepatient in confronting the disease, overcoming the medicine's side-effects, the active space and visitor limit,etc. The goal is to help the patient go through the 2-week isolation period smoothly and return home to continuereceiving treatment.
