Case summary:
Nurse D underwent a course in therapeutic touch. When she came back to work, she was eagerly waiting to use the new technique on the patient. Patient MS has undergone the abdominal surgery. When the patient came back, she explained about nausea to Nurse D.
Nurse D used a new technique called “unruffling” to calm down the patient and later, nausea disappeared. This technique showed a good result but there was no scientific support to prove it.
The characters in the case are given below:
- Person MS: The patient
- Nurse D
