This article describes the nursing experience when treating an aortic regurgitation combined with heart failure patient admitted for aortic prosthetic valve replacement. During 45 days of ICU care, weaning from ventilatory. The primary nurse used clinical observation, written with a pen and physical assessment guided by the Gordon 11-item Functional Health Pattern to identify the patient's three major problems. These were dysfunctional ventilatory weaning response, anxiety, and risk for infection. The author sued the specified nursing interventions to relieve the patient's physiological discomfort related to post-aortic prosthetic valve replacement and to ventilatory weaning response and provided full information to ease the anxiety. This rare experience is a very good example to share with other nursing colleagues.
