學齡期病童使用葉克膜治療導致截肢之護理經驗

本文是探討一位學齡期病童因呼吸道感染引發病毒性心肌炎，使用葉克膜治療導致末梢循環壞死行截肢術後的護理經驗。照護期間自2014年7月17日至2014年8月7日，筆者以觀察、會談、身體評估等方式收集資料，運用羅氏適應模式理論為評估架構，確立個案有急性疼痛、身體活動功能障礙、身體心像紊亂及情境性低自尊等護理問題。藉由疼痛評估、配合肌肉按摩及復健運動，教導漸進式轉位、使用輔具、穿衣及進食等活動，鼓勵表達內心感受，醫療團隊與家屬建立良好支持系統，使個案能以正向的態度面對截肢的事實，由依賴他人逐漸恢復獨立自主活動，進而達到良好的生活品質。建議台灣應設立殘障兒童家庭扶助中心，以提供整合性的照護。
