What is the Role of Nurses in Monitoring and Educating Patients?
Nurses are on the frontline of patient care and play a crucial role in monitoring left ventricular function. They are responsible for conducting regular assessments, including vital signs, fluid status, and signs of heart failure. Nurses also educate patients on the importance of medication adherence, lifestyle changes, and recognizing early signs of deterioration. By providing comprehensive care and education, nurses can help improve the quality of life for patients with left ventricular dysfunction.
