Lindsy had a 61-year-old male present for an outpatient CT coronary angiogram. He had a strong family history of cardiac disease, having two brothers pass away from an MI in their 60s. Lindsy's patient had complained of having some chest pressure and jaw pain that increased with activity. He had been experiencing these symptoms on and off. Lindsy felt something was really wrong. She said her ER background was telling her to follow her gut and not let this patient go home. She told the patient that she wanted him to go to the ER to get checked out, but he was resistant. She asked if he had kids and grandkids, and he started talking about them. Lindsy was very persistent, telling him to think about them and that he should consider getting checked out so he could be around for the kids. She took extra time to sit with him, talk to him, and listen to his concerns about going to the ER. Lindsy was also very diligent with keeping the CV Radiologist informed of the patient's history and symptoms. She requested the exam to be read ASAP. Lindsy eventually talked the patient into going to the ER. The CV Radiologist read the CTCA and found an occlusion, a widow maker. The patient was admitted and went for open heart surgery two days later. I feel that Lindsy deserves the DAISY Award for her incredible nursing assessment skills. She took the extra time to listen to the patient, gather important information, and relay that information to the radiologist. By following her nursing gut instinct, she saved a life.
