Abstract:
Objective:To discuss and summarize the nursing care of a patient with difficult extubation due to asymptomatic thrombosis of PICC.
Methods:By observing the local and global conditions, psychological tests, chest X-ray localization and vascular ultrasound, using critical thinking, the causes of difficult extubation were analyzed; after active anticoagulation and thrombolytic therapy, intermittent extubation of PICC; after extubation, continuous nursing was done.
Results:After the above nursing measures were implemented, PICC was removed intermittently within 24 hours, and after 3 months vascular ultrasound was showing that the thrombus in the blood vessel had been completely organized.
Conclusion:When we encounter difficulties in PICC removal, it is not necessary to extubate the PICC forcibly. It is necessary to analyze the causes and implement correct nursing measures to improve the success rate of extubation.
