NSTEMI :

Case study

Abstract

Background:    NSTEMI is commonly found in patients, and this is one of the most common causes that lead the patients to death. NSTEMI is one of most serious problems of public health among other causes occur in Thailand. According to the record shows that everyday Thai people die because of NSTEMI approximately 450 persons, or 2 persons per hour. In spite of an improvement in medical care, and variety in curing processes; however, the number of NSTEMI does not decrease. After a one year study from medicine department (14/4 ) in year 2556 appears that the number of the patients with NSTEMI.NSTEMI is 597 persons, and 116 persons respectively. Thereby, the researchers have a high interest in studying, and understanding to overcome NSTEMI in patients efficiently.

Objective

1. To study in recovery procedure of the patients with
2. To compare the differences of the patients with NSTEMI in a case study of 2 patients by looking at the development of the symptoms, problems, and predictions in medical procedure.

Population and Sample

            A study in NSTEMI of 2 patients that had received treatments from medicine department (14/4) in Surin hospital.

Method

          Is a study in progression of 2 patients. All data are collected in between May 2556 to July  2556  from Medicine department (14/4) in Surin Hospital.

Result

          From the study of 2 patients with NSTEMI found that Patient case 1 age 91 years old came in with the symptoms of chest compression, and difficulty in breathing prior 1 hour before admitted. Then, the patient was given some medicines, oxygen mask, and further received nursing care 6 programs from problem List. Patient case 2 age 77 years old came in with the symptoms of chest compression, and difficulty in breathing prior 3 hours before admitted. Then, Patient case 2 was given some medicines, oxygen mask, and further treated with 6 programs from problem List. As a result after comparing the 2 patients, appeared that Patient case 1, high age patient, has a background of heart disease and was given treatments inconsistently. Patient case 2 has a background of high blood pressure, kidney failure, and unbalanced of minerals resulted in a longer period of recovery than Patient case 1.

Conclusion

            In patients with NSTEMI. Nurse shave an important role in taking a close look of the patients, evaluating, and detecting and protecting uncommon symptoms that can occur in the patients at any time. Addition, to have an understanding of the symptoms, basic nursing, good detection, detecting by electrical machine, and detecting by emzymes are all extremely important in detecting patients with NSTEMI.
