Acute Lung Edema (ALO) is a condition where there is a buildup of fluid in the alveolar pouch and the interstitial space around the alveoli which occurs due to an increase in pulmonary capillary hydrostatic pressure or an increase in pulmonary capillary permeability which can cause impaired gas exchange. The aim of the analysis is nursing care in patients with acute lung edema with the intervention given is Deep Breathing Exercise (DBE). The results of the study showed that after regular and continuous actions 6 times a day for 30 minutes, the criteria for the results obtained were respiratory rate 20x/minute, lung sounds vesicular, no complaints shortness of breath, oxygen saturation 99% and the patient was able to perform Deep Breathing Exercises with correctly.This study recommends that a Deep Breathing Exercise be performed in patients with ineffective airway clearance to improve ventilation function."
Pain after Open Reduction Internal Fictation (ORIF) or open surgery is always a problem for fracture patients. This Paper presents the results of the analysis of nursing care in a male patient who has multiple fractures after a traffic accident, which is then performed a facial ORIF. The method used was a case study and the application of EBN, namely deep breath intervention to reduce acute pain during five days of postoperative care. The patients pain scale at the start of the post-ORIF treatment ranged from moderate to severe. Meanwhile, the pain scale on the fifth day after surgery and giving deep breath intervention, decreased in the mild to moderate range. One thing that becomes a problem when doing deep breath interventions in patients after facial ORIF is the difficulty of the patient in exhaling with clenching. Other interventions recommended based on evidence-based practice studies include the application of the Guided Imagery method intervention in post-ORIF patients to reduce pain levels. Combining the application of deep breath relaxation techniques with the Guided Imagery method and pharmacological therapy is expected to be applied by nurses in providing nursing care, especially for patients experiencing acute pain after ORIF procedure
