Polycythemia vera (PV) is a clonal stem cell disorder characterized by increased erythrocyte production. Its etiology is not fully understood, and hemorrhage, thrombosis, and hyperviscosity may occur at any time during the course of this disorder. Treatment depends on the most affected cell type, duration and severity of the condition, and patient age. PV treatment can involve phlebotomy, administration of myelosuppressive agents, and biologic therapy. The inconsonant nature of the disease and complications related to its various treatments present nursing care challenges. Nurses must work with patients with PV to ensure compliance with treatment, teach awareness of disease- and treatment-related complications, and provide needed support.
真性红细胞增多症（PV）是一种以红细胞生成增加为特征的克隆性干细胞疾病。其病因尚未完全明确，在该疾病过程中的任何时候都可能发生出血、血栓形成和血液黏稠度增加。治疗取决于受影响最严重的细胞类型、病情的持续时间和严重程度以及患者年龄。PV的治疗可包括放血、给予骨髓抑制药物和生物治疗。该疾病的不一致性以及与其各种治疗相关的并发症带来了护理挑战。护士必须与PV患者合作，以确保其遵守治疗方案，教授对疾病和治疗相关并发症的认识，并提供所需的支持。
