Nursing care for patients with multidrug-resistant pneumonia at Wang Hin Hospital : Case Study 2 case

Abstract

Purpose: To study the Nursing care for patients with multidrug-resistant pneumonia at Wang Hin Hospital : Case Study 2 case.

Study design: This study employed content analysis to compare two specific case studies of patients with multidrug-resistant pneumonia who received treatment at Wanghin Hospital, Sisaket Province in 2025.

Materials and Methods: Patients with multidrug-resistant pneumonia receiving integrated care at Wanghin Hospital were selected for this study. Data collection included assessment, history taking, and collaborative nursing planning based on nursing diagnoses. Individualized outcomes were summarized and evaluated, including physical examinations and laboratory test results. The data was analyzed using a holistic nursing approach, including the nursing process, nursing plan, continuous evaluation, discharge planning, and individualized care. Improvements were made according to the nursing process until discharge.

Main finding: Treatment of two patients with drug-resistant pneumonia. They were transferred to Wang Hin Hospital to receive antibiotics. They also received oxygen and medication. Patient 1 was discharged with no symptoms and has a follow-up appointment at the ARV clinic with a plan to start ART (Artificial Respiratory Therapy). Patient 2 was discharged with improved symptoms and has a follow-up appointment in 14 days at the general outpatient clinic (OPD). Appointment date: May 19, 2025.

Conclusion and recommendations: A multidisciplinary team should collaboratively review and design a health assessment for patients with drug-resistant pneumonia to ensure effective integrated care and rehabilitation for both inpatients and outpatients. Comprehensive clinical integration should focus on the prevention of drug-resistant pneumonia and rehabilitation after diagnosis to enable patients to care for themselves.
