Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of setting up an internal-cross disciplinary team (ICDT) in the intensive care unit (ICU) on a new model of overall treatment for patients with chronic critical illness (CCI).Methods:A 60-year-old male patient with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) admitted to ICU in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University was introduced. The role of ICDT composed of physicians, nurses, respiratory therapists, physiotherapists, clinical dietitians and patients' family members in ventilator withdrawal and super-early rehabilitation was analyzed in this case.Results:The patient was diagnosed as AECOPD, type Ⅱ aspiration penumonia respiratory failure, septic shock. The ICDT in ICU carried out early rehabilitation treatment for the patient on the basis of traditional infection control and supportive treatment. Under the care of the ICDT, peripheral blood white blood cell count (WBC), neutrophil count (NEU), procalcitonin (PCT), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2), maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP), maximum expiratory pressure (MEP), right excursion of diaphragm, sputum viscosity, tidal volume (VT) and respiratory rate (RR) were improved. Subsequently, the ventilator mode was gradually changed and the ventilator parameters were down-regulated. The ventilator was successfully weaned on the 10th day of treatment. After weaning, the patient's bedside pulmonary function indicators improved, and he was transferred out of ICU on the 15th day of treatment and discharged on the 20th day. The mental state of the patients was good and the quality of life was greatly improved in CCI outpatient follow-up. Conclusions:ICDT cooperation is very important for monitoring and treatment of CCI patients, which is beneficial to the super-early rehabilitation and prognosis improvement of critically ill patients.
