Infection control measures and proper hand washing techniques. Hand washing has to be done to prevent the growth of microorganisms on the nails, hands, and forearms. When hands are visibly dirty or contaminated with proteinaceous material or are visibly soiled with blood or other body fluids, wash hands with soap and water, if hands are not visibly soiled, use an alcohol-based hand rub for routinely decontaminating hands. Wash hands before eating and after using a restroom. Wash hands for at least 15 seconds, covering all surfaces of the hands and fingers, rinse hands with water and dry thoroughly with a disposable towel, use towel to turn off the faucet, use hand lotions or creams to minimize the occurrence of irritant contact dermatitis associated with hand antisepsis or hand washing.
The patient was instructed in thrombolytic therapy in the need that bed rest will be continued during the process and for 12 hours after an intracoronary infusion. The patient was advised that common blood sampling will be done to monitor coagulation times and that signs and symptoms of successful myocardial reperfusion, coronary reocclusion and bleeding will be checking. The patient was reviewed that signs of bleeding below the skin are probable and will clear with time.
Patient was instructed that Diabetes Mellitus is a Syndrome in which insulin production is decreased or absent. Lack of insulin leads to elevated blood sugars.

Patient/CG were instructed on: Treatment for cervicalgia ( neck pain ) are usually conservative and include methods of relieving inflammation . Applying ice to the area is a good way of relieving pain and swelling and is often advised where a muscle tear is suspected. Heat is contraindicated in such a situation as this is likely to make the problem worse by increasing blood flow to the area. If the cervicalgia is due to muscle tension rather than an injury then thermotherapy can be effective in aiding relaxation of the muscle and relieving neck pain. Adequate rest and the temporary use of a supportive neck collar is also helpful in some cases of cervicalgia ( neck pain ) although it is inadvisable to use a collar long-term as this may itself lead to muscle weakness in the neck. Many patients also make use of anti-inflammatory medications, including prescribed drugs, and natural supplements to lower inflammation and pain. Physical therapy, including neck stretches and strengthening exercises, is a good idea for anyone who suffers from chronic neck pain, and intractable cases may require more invasive surgical intervention to address some causes of cervicalgia

SN instructed patient in pulmonary fibrosis and in how it harms the tissues deep in the lungs. The air sacs in the lungs and their supporting structures become inflamed and scarred. If scarring progresses happen, then it makes your lungs thick and stiff. That makes it hard for the patient to catch their breath, and their blood may not get enough oxygen.
SN instructed patient on deep vein thrombosis is a blood clot in a vein deep in your body, such as the calf of your leg. The greatest danger is a clot that breaks off and travels to the lung(s). When this clot in the lung is called a pulmonary embolism (PE), a PE can be life threatening
SN instructed patient and caregiver about what angina pectoris is. Angina pectoris is chest pain that is caused by insufficient oxygen to meet demands of the heart. Lack of oxygen occurs when insufficient blood flows through the coronary arteries. Stable angina usually has a precipitating cause while unstable angina can occur at rest.
