Every year, the neurosurgical intensive care unit at Grenoble's university hospital (CHU) receives a large number of cerebrovascular patients. Data collected in the department during 2023 show that subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is one of the most frequent causes of the pathologies treated. In this article, we focus on the appropriate course of action.
Patients suffering from head trauma or hemorrhagic cardiovascular accident can be cared for in special facilities. Located near Grenoble, the Fondation santé des étudiants de France Grenoble La Tronche (ex-clinique du Grésivaudan) (38) provides post-resuscitation care for brain-damaged patients. This article presents the department, its specific features and their daily routine, as shared with us by Mélanie, Leslie and her fellow nurses in the neurological rehabilitation department.
For the past three years, the Institut de formation interhospitalier Théodore-Simon (Ifits) has been embarking on a magnificent adventure to meet its student nurses, collecting their words and testimonials in a series of podcasts, the main aim of which is to shed as much light as possible on the reality of nursing studies. This article retraces the genesis of the project and demonstrates the added value of this tool for future professionals and trainers alike.
Severe head trauma, with or without polytrauma, subarachnoid haemorrhage due to aneurysm rupture, is an unexpected tragedy for patients and their families. These accidents are likely to result in extremely serious neurological damage, with many of the patients under our care facing a life-threatening prognosis. To protect the brain, one solution is to put the patient into a deep sleep during the so-called "acute" phase, making it impossible to assess the repercussions of the initial injuries at the time: this is what we call "waiting resuscitation".
Cultural competence is not mentioned as such in the training standards for future nurses, but it is essential for appropriate, personalized and effective care. Learning about and reflecting on one's own history and culture enable an open relationship with patients from other cultures.
