腦中風一般較常發生在老年人,而本個案報告則描述照護一位48歲中年男性,因急性腦中風住進加護單位的經驗。照護期間為2010年10月17日至2010年11月08日。運用Gordon十一項健康功能評估作為資料收集指引,運用觀察、會談及書面資料,確立其護理問題包括腦組織灌流改變、身體活動功能障礙、言詞溝通障礙及身體心像紊亂。筆者在擬定護理計劃過程中,主動與個案討論計畫內容,也將個案家人納入照護計畫,個案的復健意願及自我價值可因家人的實質及情緒支持而增強。此外,讓個案及家人瞭解復健的目的及內容,可減輕其焦慮及不確定感。筆者因個案有語言溝通障礙問題,協助創造友好的溝通環境,以強化個案的溝通能力,藉此促進照護品質、個案自我認同及參與感,也可減低身體心像混亂對個案的衝擊。希冀本個案報告可提供照護此類個案的參考。
