Apply Mishel's Uncertainty in Illness Theory to Take Care of a Patient with Thymic Carcinomas
摘要
本文旨在描述照護一位胸腺惡性腫瘤行微創手術，術後傷口感染之個案，在面臨疾病、治療及預後產生不確定感之加護病房護理經驗，照護期間為2014年5月17日至6月4日，筆者運用觀察、筆談等方式，以Mishel不確定感理論為架構收集資料並進行分析，發現個案在加護病房期間出現三階段不確定感之行為，包括一、對疾病進展的不確定感；二、對治療過程的不確定感；三、對返家照護的不確定感。個案依其年齡在自我照顧上應當有能力，卻因傷口感染導致再次入院，護理過程發現個案家庭支持系統薄弱，難以支撐心理對疾病進展或變化所產生的不確定感。疾病初期，個案需面對無法預知之未來，對其心理調適及治療過程易產生負面影響，以不確定感理論為介入依據，探索個案因不確定感所致的焦慮、害怕，再予心理支持、經驗分享及衛教疾病症狀等護理措施，協助個案和家屬度過生理與心理上之危機。
