    Protein S deficiency, a rare coagulation disorder, increases thrombosis risk. This case study highlights diagnosis, treatment, and essential nursing care for patients, including those needing vena cava filters.

    Area of Science:

    • Hematology
    • Vascular Medicine
    • Coagulation Disorders

    Background:

    • Protein S deficiency is a hereditary thrombophilia.
    • It impairs the natural anticoagulant pathway, increasing clotting risk.
    • Thrombosis can manifest atypically in affected individuals.

    Observation:

    • A case study details the diagnosis and management of Protein S deficiency.
    • The patient required a vena cava filter due to recurrent thrombosis.
    • Nursing care is crucial for patient and family adaptation.

    Findings:

    • Effective diagnosis and treatment are vital for managing Protein S deficiency.
    • Vena cava filters can be necessary for preventing pulmonary embolism in high-risk patients.
    • Comprehensive nursing support aids patient adjustment to the disorder.
