Abstract

Head injury is a global health issue with an increasing prevalence, primarily due to traffic accidents. This condition has the potential to cause hemodynamic disturbances, decreased oxygen saturation, and impaired cerebral perfusion, all of which impact patient clinical outcomes. In cases of mild head injury, decreased oxygenation can worsen neurological status and slow the recovery process. Oxygen therapy is a primary intervention in emergency care to maintain adequate oxygenation and prevent cerebral tissue hypoxia. Objective: To apply oxygen therapy to patients with mild head injuries to improve oxygen saturation in cases of ineffective breathing patterns. Methods: A case study was conducted through comprehensive nursing care, encompassing assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation, using data collection techniques such as interviews, observations, physical examinations, and documentation. A literature review was conducted by reviewing relevant scientific literature. Results: The application of oxygen therapy demonstrated improved oxygen saturation, improved breathing patterns, hemodynamic stability, and increased patient consciousness. Conclusion: Oxygen therapy is effective as a nursing intervention in improving oxygenation status and clinical condition in patients with mild head injury and ineffective breathing patterns.
