癲癇(Seizure)發作時,護理師的首要任務是確保個案安全(Safety),並防止窒息。依據 ABC 原則與安全導向,第一步應為清除周遭危險物,避免病人撞擊受傷。過往錯誤的做法如強塞壓舌板已證實會導致牙齒斷裂或呼吸道阻塞,應嚴格禁止。護理師不應限制病人的肢體活動,以免造成骨折或肌肉損傷,應採取保護頭部、側臥姿勢以利分泌物流出。
During a seizure, the nurse’s primary responsibility is to protect the client from injury by clearing the surrounding area of hazardous objects. Restraining the client or inserting objects into the mouth is contraindicated as it can cause fractures or airway obstruction. Ensuring safety and maintaining a patent airway are the top priorities.
✦ 台美臨床差異
美國臨床對於癲癇發作的護理觀念極度強調「Hands-off」策略,嚴禁塞入任何異物,護理師重點僅在於保護頭部安全,此點與台灣現代護理教育一致,但過往臨床習慣需特別矯正。
