Purpose:
This case study illustrates the use of the nursing process based upon the standardized nursing diagnoses approved by NANDA International (NANDA-I), and using the Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC) and the Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) in the care of a patient with pemphigus vulgaris (PV).
Data Sources:
The published literature on PV and the experience and expertise of the authors in working with people with impaired skin integrity and PV were used to develop this case study.
Data Synthesis:
The accuracy of nursing diagnoses and appropriateness of the nursing interventions were supported by the positive health outcomes of the patient.
Conclusion:
Impaired skin integrity is a human response diagnosed by nurses, and early treatment is important due to the vulnerability of these patients.
Implications For Nursing Practice:
The case study contributes to nursing knowledge for professionals who care for patients with PV.
