護理師應評估哪些病人符合從加護病房轉出至一般外科病房的條件?(選所有適合的)
Which clients should the nurse identify as appropriate for transfer to a medical-surgical unit from the Intensive Care Unit (ICU)? (Select all that apply.)
- AA client requiring continuous vasopressor titration需要持續調整血管收縮劑的病人
- BA client who is hemodynamically stable on oral medications✓ 正解口服藥物下血流動力學穩定的病人
- CA client requiring mechanical ventilation需要機械通氣的病人
- DA client whose clinical condition has stabilized and no longer requires invasive hemodynamic monitoring✓ 正解臨床狀況已穩定且不再需要侵入性血流動力學監測的病人
- EA client requiring hourly neurological checks for intracranial pressure monitoring需要每小時進行顱內壓監測之神經學檢查的病人
ICU轉出至一般病房的標準核心在於病人是否具備「醫療穩定性(Medical Stability)」。這意味著病人不再需要持續的侵入性血流動力學監測、高階呼吸支持或頻繁的藥物滴定。正確選項 B 和 D 代表病人已脫離危險期,進入穩定的康復階段。反之,A、C、E 選項皆涉及高風險的維生支持或密集的神經學監測,若貿然轉出,將因監測強度不足而延誤潛在的急症處理。
Patients are appropriate for transfer from the ICU when they are hemodynamically stable and no longer require invasive monitoring, high-level respiratory support, or frequent medication titrations. Clients needing vasopressors, mechanical ventilation, or hourly neurological checks for intracranial pressure remain too unstable for a general medical-surgical unit.
美國醫院通常設有「中級加護病房(Step-down Unit / Telemetry)」作為過渡,而台灣則較常直接從 ICU 轉至普通病房。因此在美國考題中,若病人尚需持續心電圖監測(Telemetry),可能會被分配至 Step-down 而非一般病房。
