The use of cocaine is increasing in the United States. An increasing number of cocaine users will be admitted to the PACU, requiring nurses to be knowledgeable about this hazardous drug. Cocaine produces harmful effects on the central nervous, respiratory, and cardiovascular systems. Nursing process can be used to guide the patient's care. Changes in physical, mental, and emotional status must be assessed often. Multiple nursing diagnoses are appropriate for this patient in the PACU. Maintaining airway and alleviating pain are nursing interventions that challenge the PACU nurse. The goal of nursing care is to provide a safe, quiet, and comfortable recovery from anesthesia. Rehabilitation is the long-range goal for the patient who needs expert nursing care, a therapeutic environment, and understanding.
