Q

You are a nurse at the medical center. One of your nurse colleagues tells you that he has an appointment with a patient diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder for a blood pressure check. By reading the physician’s documentation he understands that the patient has disabilities and impairments related to the psychiatric disorder.

Your colleague knows that every individual with ASD is unique, but he seeks your general advice on what to consider in the encounter with a patient with ASD.

  • What general advice can you give your colleague? Give 3 suggestions, describe and justify your suggestions! (6p)
A
  • Bristande mentaliseringsförmåga
  • svårt att se sig själv i ett annat perspektiv och förstå hur andra tycker och tänker.
  • Minska stora förändringar, ej uppskattat
  • Hastigt uppkomna/ ändrad planer, leder till oro.
  • Rutinbrott leder till känslan av att ”allt faller samman”
  • Personer i autismspektrumet har ofta en grej som dem är väldigt insnöade på och kan allt om ex. tåg eller indisk kultur, finns alltid något att prata om.
  • Det sociala spelet är ej deras starkaste sida.
  • De tycker generellt inte om beröring.
  • Ljus- och ljudkänsliga.
  • De tycker det är obehagligt med ögonkontakt.
  • Vill ha det “på deras sätt”
  • Svårt med kroppsspråk

Råd: Ifall planer eller dylikt behöver förändras, informera patienten långt innan förändringen kommer äga rum. De har svårt att driva ett samtal, även fast de är intresserade, en tyst minut är inget dåligt. Hitta patientens hobby för att använda det som verktyg att driva vidare i samtalet ifall det tar stopp. Undvik kroppskontakt, ifall ej möjligt prioritera extremiteterna.

Q

Case:
You work as a nurse in a general psychiatric ward. One of the patients is Joachim, a 42-year-old, married father of three who works in sales. He was hospitalized a few days ago after a suicide attempt.

When you talk to Joachim he answers you in a few words, and you often have to wait for his answers. You have never seen a smile on his face, nor changes in his facial expressions.

Joachim stays mostly in his room, where he lies in bed with the blinds drawn. You note that he has worn the same clothes since being admitted, and he also seems to have slept in them. The room smells stuffy and you detect a pungent odour of sweat. His hair looks dirty and unkempt and the stubble of his beard is growing. He
didn’t come out of his room for lunch, and he has barely touched the breakfast served in his room.

Joachim’s wife, Linda, and their three children – Filip, Erik and Maja, ages 7, 9 and 12 – visit the patient. Filip tries to show Joachim one of the games on his mobile phone but gets no response. Maja tries to hug her father, but he pushes her away and starts to cry with his face buried in his hands.

a) Give a suggestion on Joachim’s psychiatric diagnosis. Justify your answer. (1 point)

b) What treatment would you suggest for Joachim? Give two examples and justify your answer. (2 point)

c) Suggest two nursing interventions applicable in Joachim’s situation. Describe the suggested nursing interventions and justify your answer. (2 point)

A

A) Svår depression, pga
- Apati: Sängliggandes, ger ingen respons
- Anhedoni: Kan ej känna positiva känslor
- Nedstämdhet: Ledsen och gråter
- Irritation: Blir irriterad när andra försöker visa kärlek

B) Farmakologisk behandling: SSRI, SNRI eller NaSSa, men även psykosociala terapier (exempelvis KBT) för att tillslut kunna hantera känslor på egen hand.

C) Rutiner: Sovschema, morgonrutin.
Samtal med anhöriga: Undervisa om sjukdomen för varför Joachim är som han är.

Q

You are a nurse at the medical center. One of your nurse colleagues tells you that he has
an appointment with a patient diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder for a blood pressure check. By reading the physician’s documentation he understands that the patient has disabilities and impairments related to the psychiatric disorder.

Your colleague knows that every individual with ASD is unique, but he seeks your general advice on what to consider in the encounter with a patient with ASD.

What general advice can you give your colleague? (Minimum 3 suggestions). Describe and
justify your suggestions! (6p)

A

Begriplig information: Personer med autism kan ha svårt att tolka sociala situationer, därför är det viktigt att sjuksköterskan ger information som är lättförstådd, exempel på hjälpmedel till detta är bild/skriftstöd, sedan förklara hur personen i fråga ska fortgå med uppgiften.
Undvik ljud/ljus i rummet då personer med autism kan uppleva detta som distraherande och obehagliga pga överstimuli.

Q

You work as a nurse at the local primary health center. Your first patient of the day is
Lennart. Lennart is 73 years old and a widower since 3 years ago. He is a farmer and lives by himself by the countryside. He’s interested in deer hunting and fishing. He is a known patient at your primary health center due to his diabetes and high blood pressure since many years. Now it is time for his annual diabetes check-up. You’ve met Lennart many
times before and previously always had a smile on his face and hunting stories to tell. A jolly
good fellow!

Today when you meet him he looks tired, ravaged and doesn’t smell good nor has shaved lately. You’ve never seen him likes this before. He hardly answers your questions about his well being. When you try to make him tell a hunting story, he just shakes his head and says “No, not today”. When you ask him if he takes his insulin on a regular basis, he says; “I don’t care about that anymore. What difference does it make?”

You react on Lennars unwillingness to answer the questions and sense that something is wrong with him.
