This paper discusses the nursing experience concerning a patient suffering from respiratory acidosis complicated with carbon dioxide retention and pneumonia caused by idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), with the patient dependent on a respirator on a long-term basis and feeling general discomfort and powerlessness due to exacerbation of the condition. Nursing care was provided from November 29th to December 12th, 2018. Assessment was made with the Gordon 11 Function Health Patterns, and data were collected through observation, interview, physical assessment and practical care, etc. Health problems including impaired gas exchange, imbalanced nutrition less than body requirements, activity intolerance and powerlessness were identified. A trustworthy therapeutic relationship between the nurse and patient was established during the nursing period by deploying care, listening, and showing empathy. Professional knowledge and individualized nursing measures were applied to satisfy the patient's physical and psychological nursing requirements. Appropriate treatments were given during the nursing process by engaging multidisciplinary teams to help the patient tackle the discomfort caused by the disease in a positive way, enhancing the patient's awareness of illness and daily care capability in order to prevent relapse, and hence improve quality of life.
