Research Abstract |
The number of patients with respiratory dysfunction has been increasing among the home care patients. The needs for the safety respiratory home care procedure is now intensifying, especially in the patients with neurological disease. It is very helpful to using some adequate monitoring devices for the respiratory and circulation system of the patient. In this research, we discussed on the applicability of the portable pulse oximetory to the home respiratory care. Eighteen patients with neurological disease were studied who had respiratory dysfunction and six of them were using mechanical ventilation. The results were as follows. 1. In order to carry out a safety home care, the respiratory monitoring was very important especially when (1) the respiratory dysfunction getting worse, (2)planning to develop patient's daily exercise, (3)doing some nursing procedure such as suctioning tracheostomy tube. 2. Application of the portable pulse oximetory was effective particularly when (1) long-term observation of respiratory function, (2) prevention of diminishing of SaO2 during under nursing, (3) determinate the schedule of developing patient's daily exercise. 3. For the safety use of portable pulse oximetory in home care, it should be needed (1) improvement of the hardware/software specification (easy to manipulate and safety to misuse), (2) training system for users, (3) information net work among the home care members, (4) development of other adequate monitors for respiratory functions, which could be using with the portable pulse oximetory.
