This paper describes the nursing experience of caring for a patient with acute myocardial infarction with the complications of cardiogenic shock and low cardiac output. This client was sent to the intensive care unit for receiving the invasive interventions of Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty and Intra-Aortic Ballon Pump therapy. During the nursing care period (from 1/24/2009 to 1/28/2009), the author used the Roy’s Adaptation Model to assess this client’s adaption conditions of psychology, self-concept, role function and interdependence. The analyzed data revealed that this client had the health problems of acute pain, decreased cardiac output, risk for infection, and anxiety. Throughout the nursing process, the author established a good therapeutic relationship with the client and his family, provided related information of heart disease, encouraged the family member to participate in the client’s treatment course, and helped the client to face to his disease in overcoming the dangerous situation. The nursing interventions were conducted to help the client to have good adaptations in physical, psychological and social perspectives, and improve the client’s self-care capability and quality of life. The author hopes to share her nursing experience of caring for this case to other nurse staffs. It can provide useful information and helpful application of nursing care while they have to look after the similar cases in the future.
