[Rheumatoid Arthritis] Don't get lost in practice! Assessment organized from 3 perspectives

Assessment of rheumatoid arthritis is easier to write by organizing the changes from stage to stage from three perspectives.

The point is to look at not only symptoms but also prevention of seriousness and continuation of treatment.

1) Main symptoms and severity

Confirm joint pain, swelling, stiffness, and limited range of motion. Evaluate CRP, red precipitation, RF, anti-CCP antibodies, and imaging findings over time.

2) Effects of complications, signs of seriousness, and treatment

Do not overlook infection signs, fall-related factors, chest symptoms, etc. Check the side effects of the drug and safety management (blood count and hepato-renal function) as a set.

3) Psychology and Society (Continuation of Treatment)

Understand anxiety and depression, the impact on work and household chores, the ease of continuing hospital visits / medication, and the support system, and lead to an executable plan.

Please save it before practice and review it when creating a record.

... Read more関節リウマチの患者さんを看護実習で担当する際、アセスメントに悩むことが多いかと思います。私も最初は「朝のこわばり」や「関節痛」をどう具体的に書くべきか迷いましたが、3つの視点(主要症状・合併症・心理・社会的背景)で整理すると理解しやすく、実際の記録作成もスムーズになりました。 特に重要なのはそれぞれの視点ごとに「なぜその症状が起きるのか」を根拠を明確にすることです。例えば、朝のこわばりは自己免疫による滑膜炎が持続し、関節包内圧が上がるため起こるというメカニズムを知っていると、単なる訴えを書き写すだけでなく正確に評価できるようになります。CRPや抗CCP抗体の変化も病期の悪化度を判断するうえで欠かせません。 また、合併症として感染症や転倒リスクも見逃せません。私は実習で実際に患者さんの転倒関連因子を指導教官に確認してもらいながら学びました。薬剤の副作用チェックや血算・肝腎機能のモニタリングも、患者の安全管理に直結する重要ポイントです。 心理・社会面では、不安や抑うつの把握が治療継続に大きく影響します。通院や服薬の継続支援を考え、就労や家事への影響も視野に入れて支援計画を立てました。患者さんの生活背景を理解すると看護の質が格段に上がると実感しています。 このように3視点で丁寧にアセスメントを行うことで、患者さんの全体像を把握し、適切な看護計画につなげられます。実習の前にこのポイントを整理しておくと記録作成の際に役立ち、迷いが少なくなります。皆さんもぜひ実習で実践し、自分の言葉で患者さんの状態を的確に表現できるようチャレンジしてみてください。
