Targeted perioperative nursing focusing on respiratory and circulatory care can support successful surgical outcomes and ICU discharge in high-risk adult patients with congenital heart disease and severe pulmonary arterial hypertension.
May support specialized perioperative nursing in high-risk ACHD with severe PAH; leaves open generalizability beyond this small case series.
Objectives: To explore the main points of perioperative nursing for adult congenital heart disease with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension. Methods: A retrospective study of 13 patients with congenital heart disease and severe pulmonary arterial hypertension who admitted to the perioperative period of care from January 2018 to December 2019. To prevent perioperative complications of the patients, the focus is on respiratory and circulatory system care, followed by blood coagulation monitoring, digestive system protection and psychological care. Results: All 13 patients passed the perioperative period and were discharged from ICU. Conclusion: Adult congenital heart disease with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension has high perioperative risk, respiratory and circulatory system care is the key.
