Abstract:
The nursing experience was summarised over a patient who developed an impending myasthenic crisis following immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs)therapy after the surgery for stage-Ⅳ liver cancer.Key nursing points included:close monitoring for early signs of impending myasthenic crisis;set up a multi-disciplinary team to improve respiratory,oropharyngeal and ocular function,control respiratory infection,provide psychological support in order to prevent the patient from developing a manifest myasthenia-gravis crisis(MC);combine with medications to relieve myasthenic symptoms and prevent adverse drug reactions;individualised rehabilitation training to promote recovery of muscular strength.Eventually,the patient did not develop into a MC during hospitalisation(20d)and was well at 3-month after discharge.
