Abstract

Tetralogy of Fallot is a congenital heart condition comprising four hallmark structural heart defects: ventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, overriding aorta, and right ventricular hypertrophy, which may lead to patients experiencing low levels of oxygen saturation. Patients with tetralogy of Fallot may appear cyanotic; however, patients with adequate pulmonary blood flow may remain asymptomatic and undetected. The preadmission history and assessment skills of the perianesthesia nurse are essential to provide patient-centered care. This paper highlights the importance of the role of the perianesthesia nurse when completing comprehensive health histories and physical assessments before any procedures and care provided.

麻醉周围护士在意外发现的入院前评估中的关键作用:一个病例报告。
法洛四联症是一种先天性心脏病,包括四个标志性的结构性心脏缺陷:室间隔缺损、肺动脉狭窄、覆盖主动脉和右心室肥厚,这可能导致患者经历低水平的血氧饱和度。法洛四联症患者可能出现紫绀;然而,肺血流充足的患者可能仍无症状且未被发现。麻醉周围护士的入院前病史和评估技能对于提供以患者为中心的护理至关重要。本文强调了围麻醉护士在任何手术和护理前完成全面的健康史和身体评估的重要性。
