The doses of digital drugs bring different experiences than adult patients. Digoxin is a potentially dangerous drug due to the narrow safety margin of therapeutic, toxic and lethal doses. Many toxic responses are extensions of their therapeutic effects. Therefore, the nurse should maintain a high index of suspicion for signs of toxicity when administering digital drugs.
Digital toxicity is a condition that requires early intervention. While children in adolescence and school childhood can express this process in a way that they can express themselves, such a sharing is not possible in the newborn and infancy period. In this process, pediatric nurses should observe the early signs and symptoms of toxicity in the institutions they provide health care, take an appropriate approach and evaluate them. In this review article, the use of digital drugs used in chronic diseases and the responsibilities of the pediatric nurse will be shared in detail.

Kronik Hastalıklarda Dijital İlaç Kullanımı ve Pediatri Hemşiresinin Sorumlulukları

Öz

Dijital ilaçların kullanım dozları erişkin hastalardan daha farklı deneyimleri beraberinde getirmektedir. Digoksin, terapötik, toksik ve ölümcül dozların dar güvenlik sınırı nedeniyle potansiyel olarak tehlikeli bir ilaçtır. Birçok toksik tepki, terapötik etkilerinin uzantılarıdır. Bu nedenle, hemşire dijital ilaçları uygularken toksisite belirtileri için yüksek bir şüphe indeksi sürdürmelidir.
Dijital toksisite erken müdahaleyi beraberinde gerektirmesi gereken bir durumdur. Adölesan ve okul çocukluğu dönemindeki çocuklar bu süreci kendilerini ifade edebilecekleri şekilde dile getirebilirlerken, yenidoğan ve süt çocukluğu döneminde ise böyle bir paylaşım mümkün olamamaktadır. Bu süreçte pediatri hemşireleri sağlık bakımı verdikleri kurumlarda toksisite erken belirti ve bulgularını gözlemlemeli, uygun yaklaşımda bulunmalı ve değerlendirmeleri oldukça önemlidir. Bu derleme makalesinde özellikle kronik hastalıklarda kullanılan dijital ilaç kullanımı ve pediatri hemşiresinin sorumlulukları detaylı bir biçimde paylaşılacaktır.
