  • 1. Small Bowel Obstruction
    Small bowel obstruction은 수술 후 유착, 복부 수술 후 장 중첩, 탈장, 암, 크론병으로 인한 협착 등 다양한 원인으로 발생할 수 있습니다. 주요 증상으로는 복부 산통, 오심, 분출성 구토, 복부 팽만, 변비, 가스 배출 장애 등이 있습니다. 진단을 위해 건강력 및 신체 검진, 복부 X-ray, 복부 CT, S상 경장경, 대장 내시경, 혈액 검사 등이 필요합니다. 치료를 위해 NG 튜브 삽입, 금식, 수액 및 전해질 보충, 항생제 투여 등의 처치가 필요하며, 보존적 치료에 반응하지 않는 경우 수술이 필요할 수 있습니다.
  • 2. Dehydration
    탈수의 주요 증상과 징후로는 피부와 점막의 건조, 불안 상태, 의식 저하, 소변량 감소, 혈압 저하, 혼수 등이 있습니다. 탈수가 진행되면 피부 탄력성과 소변량이 더욱 감소하고 어지러움, 메스꺼움, 구토 증상이 나타납니다. 본 환자의 경우 피부 긴장도 저하, 점막 건조, 전날 소변 배출 없음, 낮은 혈압, 높은 혈액 검사 수치 등의 소견이 관찰되어 탈수가 의심됩니다.
  • 3. Acute Abdominal Pain Assessment
    급성 복통 사정 시 간호사가 확인해야 할 주요 항목은 다음과 같습니다: 통증의 위치와 특징, 강도, 방사통 여부, 통증의 이동 양상, 통증 발생 시기와 지속 시간, 과거 유사 증상 경험 여부, 악화/완화 요인 등입니다. 또한 복부 관련 질환이나 수술 과거력을 확인해야 합니다.
  • 4. Laboratory Abnormalities
    본 환자의 검사 결과 WBC 수치가 정상보다 높아 감돈이나 천공 가능성, 패혈증 위험이 있는 것으로 나타났습니다. 또한 HCT 수치가 높아 수분 부족으로 인한 혈액 농축이 있는 것으로 보입니다. 크레아티닌 수치 상승과 전날 소변 배출 부족 소견도 관찰되었습니다.
  • 5. ISBAR Handover Report
    ISBAR 형식에 따른 인계 보고 내용은 다음과 같습니다: 1) Introduction: 52세 남성, small bowel obstruction 진단으로 복부 통증과 오심으로 입원함 2) Situation: 52세 남성, small bowel obstruction 진단 3) Background: 최근 며칠간 심한 복통, 메스꺼움, 구토 증상으로 입원, 전날 소변 배출 없음 - glucose 5% 150ml/hr IV 투여 중, NRS 4점 - 오심/구토 완화를 위해 ondansetron 4mg IV 투여 - 통증 조절을 위해 morphine 2mg IV q4h PRN 투여 중 4) Assessment: NRS 4점에서 3점으로 감소, 활력징후 안정적 - 혈액 검사 결과 Na, Cl, HCO3, Urea, Creatinine, Hb, Hct, WBC 수치 상승 5) Recommendation: NRS 3점으로 morphine 지속 투여, WBC 상승 소견으로 추가 항생제 처방 요청

  • 1. Small Bowel Obstruction
    Small bowel obstruction is a serious medical condition that requires prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment. It occurs when the small intestine becomes blocked, preventing the normal passage of food and fluids. Common causes include adhesions, hernias, tumors, and intussusception. Symptoms may include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and constipation. Early recognition and management are crucial to prevent complications such as bowel ischemia, perforation, and sepsis. Diagnostic tests like abdominal imaging and laboratory studies can help identify the underlying cause. Treatment often involves fluid resuscitation, nasogastric decompression, and potentially surgical intervention if conservative measures fail. Careful monitoring and a multidisciplinary approach are essential to optimize patient outcomes and minimize the risk of adverse events.
  • 2. Dehydration
    Dehydration is a common and potentially serious medical condition that occurs when the body loses more fluid than it takes in. It can be caused by various factors, such as excessive fluid loss through vomiting, diarrhea, fever, or inadequate fluid intake. Symptoms of dehydration can range from mild (e.g., thirst, dry mouth, fatigue) to severe (e.g., dizziness, confusion, rapid heart rate). Prompt recognition and management of dehydration are crucial, as it can lead to electrolyte imbalances, organ dysfunction, and even life-threatening complications if left untreated. Rehydration with oral or intravenous fluids, depending on the severity, is the mainstay of treatment. Healthcare providers should also address the underlying cause of fluid loss and provide supportive care to prevent further dehydration. Educating patients on the importance of maintaining adequate hydration, especially in high-risk situations, can help prevent dehydration and its associated complications.
  • 3. Acute Abdominal Pain Assessment
    Acute abdominal pain is a common presenting complaint in healthcare settings, and its assessment requires a comprehensive and systematic approach. Obtaining a detailed history, including the location, quality, and duration of the pain, as well as associated symptoms, can provide valuable clues to the underlying cause. A thorough physical examination, focusing on abdominal palpation, auscultation, and assessment of vital signs, is essential. Diagnostic tests, such as laboratory studies and imaging, may be necessary to further investigate the source of the pain and rule out serious conditions. Healthcare providers should be vigilant in recognizing red flags, such as severe or worsening pain, fever, and signs of peritoneal irritation, which may indicate a surgical emergency. A multidisciplinary approach, involving collaboration between primary care providers, emergency physicians, and specialists, can help ensure timely and appropriate management to improve patient outcomes. Continuous education and the use of evidence-based guidelines can enhance the clinical skills of healthcare professionals in the assessment and management of acute abdominal pain.
  • 4. Laboratory Abnormalities
    Laboratory abnormalities can provide valuable insights into a patient's health status and guide clinical decision-making. Interpreting these findings requires a comprehensive understanding of the underlying physiology, potential causes, and the clinical context. Healthcare providers should be familiar with the normal reference ranges for various laboratory tests and be able to recognize and investigate significant deviations. Abnormal results may indicate the presence of underlying medical conditions, such as organ dysfunction, metabolic disorders, or infectious processes. Careful correlation of laboratory findings with the patient's symptoms, medical history, and physical examination is crucial to determine the appropriate course of action. This may involve further diagnostic testing, medication adjustments, or referral to specialists. Effective communication of laboratory results and their clinical implications to patients is also essential to promote understanding and shared decision-making. Continuous education and the use of evidence-based guidelines can enhance the ability of healthcare professionals to interpret and manage laboratory abnormalities, ultimately improving patient care and outcomes.
  • 5. ISBAR Handover Report
    The ISBAR (Identification, Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation) handover report is a standardized communication tool that can enhance the quality and safety of patient care during transitions of care. Effective handover communication is crucial to ensure the seamless transfer of essential patient information, minimize the risk of errors or omissions, and promote continuity of care. The ISBAR framework provides a structured approach to organize and convey relevant patient details, including the patient's identification, the current situation, the patient's medical background, the healthcare provider's assessment, and the recommended plan of action. Consistent use of ISBAR can help healthcare professionals communicate concisely and effectively, reducing the potential for miscommunication and improving patient outcomes. Additionally, the ISBAR tool can be adapted and implemented across various healthcare settings, promoting a standardized approach to handover communication. Ongoing training and reinforcement of the ISBAR principles, as well as regular evaluation of its effectiveness, can further enhance the adoption and utilization of this valuable communication strategy.
