面對急性驚恐發作的個案,護理師的首要任務是提供安全感並減少焦慮誘發的刺激。保持陪伴可降低孤獨感與無助感,穩定且冷靜的語調有助於個案平復情緒,此為心理護理的基石。藥物或呼吸技巧需在個案情緒稍微穩定後再介入,獨處則會加劇恐慌。
The nurse's priority is to stay with the client and use a calm, steady voice to provide safety and reduce the feeling of isolation during an acute panic attack. This immediate psychological support helps lower anxiety levels, whereas teaching new skills or administering medication is less effective until the client is calmer.
