Experience in Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Nursing for a Case of Classic Heat Stroke Patient
This article summarizes the integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine (TCM-WM) nursing experience for a patient with classic heat stroke. The elderly female patient had multiple underlying diseases, posing significant nursing challenges. Comprehensive interventions were implemented, including cooling measures, mechanical ventilation support, volume expansion, fluid resuscitation, anticoagulation therapy, intra-abdominal pressure monitoring, and enteral nutrition. Additionally, TCM-based nursing techniques such as herbal external applications, oral administration of Chinese medicine, and five-element music therapy were applied to enhance recovery and improve quality of life. After 40 days of meticulous treatment and nursing, the patient was successfully discharged.
