This case report describes perioperative nursing experience with a patient undergoing abscess drainage and laminectomy after being infected with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) through drug use by injection and diagnosed with a spinal epidural abscess and cervical spondylosis. The nursing period was from December 24, 2012 to January 16, 2013. Gordon’s Functional Health Patterns were applied to assess the patient’s condition. Three health-related problems were identified: anxiety, existing infection, and ineffective health maintenance. Nursing interventions included providing: preoperative health education and psychological support to reduce the patient’s anxiety, high-quality safety protections and assistance during the operative procedures, and postoperative infection control, self-care, and rehabilitation education. These interventions helped the patient to successfully manage all problems before, during, and after surgery, and to regain functions of daily living, and be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible. To achieve holistic health care, operating room nurses should not be confined to operating rooms, but should enter wards to provide patients with perioperative evaluation and care by applying appropriate professional knowledge. Helping patients overcome preoperative anxiety, pass through the crisis of surgery, learn postoperative self-care, and receive early rehabilitation could maintain patient safety in surgery and promote postoperative recovery, thereby improving the quality of perioperative nursing care.
