Abstract:
To summarize the nursing experience of a pediatric patient who underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation following liver transplantation for erythropoietic protoporphyria,several key nursing points were identified.These included implementing plasma exchange to prevent liver failure,employing light-avoidance therapy to reduce photosensitivity,enhancing skin and mucosal care to minimize bacterial colonization,and strengthening caregiver management to prevent cross-infection.After hematopoietic stem cell transplantation,the main focus of nursing care shifted towards drug management to mitigate liver damage,closely monitoring the patient's condition for potential nervous system lesions,implementing effective diarrhea management strategies to prevent perianal infection,prioritizing psychological support in order to alleviate negative emotions experienced by the patient,and providing individualized health education and follow-up management plans aimed at promoting rehabilitation.Because of meticulous nursing provided by a dedicated multidisciplinary team,the child showed significant improvement within 34 days post-transplantation and continued recovering well during outpatient follow-up visits conducted 4 months after hospital discharge.
