This article describes the nursing experience of a newly diagnosed hepatocellular carcinoma case with tumor rupture. The duration of nursing care was from March 28th to April 4th, 2014. The author used Gordon's 11-Item Functional Health Assessment Model, and collected the data through observations, interviews, records, and confirmed that the case had the following nursing problems, including pain, high-risk bleeding, ineffective coping and lack of knowledge for personal care. The patient suffered from physical, psychological and spiritual distress facing the first emergent invasive treatment after the diagnosis of cancer, and required establishment of the perception of disease knowledge and adjusting psychological impact. The author established a trust relationship with empathy and caring, taught the patient about non-pharmacological techniques to alleviate abdominal discomfort, and provided health education for daily activities and diet to prevent re-bleeding of the liver tumor. We gave psychological support and guided the newly diagnosed carcinoma patient to release the emotional distress; helped her face stress via positive thinking and appropriate coping skills according to individual needs; provided associated information for increasing cognition of hepatocellular carcinoma; and made referral to case managers for providing comprehensive care during the process of follow-up. The author suggests that more compassion be provided for the double pressure of patients just diagnosed with cancer and facing medical treatment, as well as resources of medical team care and continuous care be provided to assist the patient in adjusting to the physical and psychological impacts.
