Özet:

Hanging is known as one of the most frequently used suicide methods in the world. It often causes serious problems that result in death, but the treatment of the individual after its survival is difficult and important. In this event, the 44-year-old female patient was taken to the emergency department with a diagnosis of hypoxic brain damage due to hanging of the patient's neck after the patient's first interventions. In accordance with the data obtained by evaluating the laboratory and follow-up findings of the routinely performed case, nursing diagnoses were determined and nursing care of the individual was performed. Since the admission of the patient to the intensive care unit, nursing care has been provided with a multidisciplinary approach and individual monitoring has been carried out. It is aimed to share the results of nursing care provided in the intensive care unit of a patient with hypoxic brain injury after hanging in this case and to guide our other colleagues. Sharing the studies and experiences conducted on this subject will contribute to the expansion of the literature on this issue and the identification of effective nursing initiatives.
