Crit Care Nurse. 1989 Nov-Dec;9(10):30-8.
Clostridia are organisms which, in the right environment, can cause a rapidly spreading, fulminant myonecrosis. Early diagnosis and a combined management program are clearly paramount to a successful outcome. Knowledge of this disease and ongoing meticulous assessment are the tools that a nurse must use when dealing with patients who have gas gangrene or are at high risk of developing it. In the face of radical disfigurements that may follow therapeutic measures, the potential transfer to a distant center for treatment, and a deteriorating prognosis, the nurse must remain alert to patient and family psychologic needs.
梭状芽孢杆菌是一种在适宜环境中可引发迅速蔓延的暴发性肌坏死的微生物。早期诊断和综合管理方案对于取得成功的治疗结果显然至关重要。了解这种疾病并持续进行细致评估是护士在护理患有气性坏疽或有发生气性坏疽高风险的患者时必须运用的手段。面对治疗措施可能导致的严重毁容、可能需要转至远处中心进行治疗以及预后不断恶化的情况，护士必须时刻关注患者及其家属的心理需求。
