Afegir etiqueta | Sumari: | For the study of this clinical case, information has been collected during the period in which the pre-professional practices were carried out in which, a 62-year-old patient was admitted to the health home by emergency presenting a clinical picture of respiratory failure. According to the information in the medical history, it was observed that the patient has suffered from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pulmonary fibrosis for 8 years. Due to the pathologies mentioned two years ago, a tracheostomy was performed to counteract the respiratory problem and prolong the patient's life. Knowing these antecedents, the diagnosis of COPD and exacerbated pulmonary fibrosis is reached, then all the medical personnel conclude that it is a critical patient since 2 years ago a colostomy was also performed due to digestive problems. In order to improve the patient's health at the time of emergency, many studies are carried out, nebulisations with long-term bronchodilators are performed and in 24 hours he is transferred to the intensive care unit (ICU) where he is it is connected by mechanical ventilation. As the days go by, the respiratory situation worsens presenting pneumonia. Also, the patient becomes hemodynamically destabilized after a surgery performed with the purpose of closing the colostomy. All the procedures carried out and mentioned above concurred with the purpose of improving the health of the patient but, due to the different complications and pathological antecedents, the objective was not achieved, which causes the patient to suffer a cardiorespiratory arrest causing death. |
