    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Nursing Care

    Background:

    • Myocardial ischemia presents significant risks, including chest pain, decreased cardiac output, and potential for severe complications.
    • Effective nursing care is vital for managing patients undergoing thrombolytic therapy.

    Observation:

    • The patient experienced chest pain due to myocardial ischemia and decreased cardiac output from reperfusion dysrhythmias.
    • Knowledge deficits regarding thrombolytic therapy were identified as a key issue.

    Findings:

    • Nursing interventions focused on alleviating chest pain and ensuring timely thrombolytic therapy.
    • Hemodynamic stability and prevention of bleeding were prioritized.

    Implications:

    • Prompt management of actual and potential nursing problems is essential for patient outcomes.
