摘要

本文描述一位食道癌病人已行食道重建、化學及放射線治療後，本以為疾病受到控制，此次呼吸喘及肋膜積水，檢查後發現肺轉移且疾病進展快速，感受生命受威脅，對未來感到無望，同時造成家庭衝擊，故引發筆者探討動機，護理期間自2018年3月22日至4月17日，透過Gordon十一項功能性健康型態評估，確立有低效性呼吸型態、疼痛及無望感。照護過程藉由持續性關懷，及依個別性給予精油按摩、轉移注意力等技巧，來緩解疼痛及呼吸喘。針對無望感則利用與家人回顧過往的生活點滴，鼓勵說出內心感受，讓個案對過去的經歷有正向情緒，且運用安寧療護理念整合醫療團隊給予心理諮商、安寧共同照護、居家安寧團隊、轉介心理諮商師及出院服務準備，以得到完善的醫療資源，減輕家屬照護的緊張感，亦可讓個案降低其無望感，使個案去計畫僅剩的未來，並選擇在熟悉的居家環境中走完人生最後一程。建議及早會診安寧共同照護或心理諮商師，以團隊資源及家庭力量的支持，整體持續關懷癌末病人，提升全人護理照護品質，期望此經驗能提供照護類似病人之參考。
