Gouty arthritis is a type of joint inflammation that occurs due to elevated levels of uric acid in the blood, resulting from impaired purine metabolism (hyperuricemia) in the body, which leads to the deposition of monosodium urate crystals in the joint area. The accumulation of these crystals triggers an inflammatory response characterized by intense pain, swelling, warmth, and redness in the joint. Gout arthritis is a common condition often associated with the aging process, particularly joint disorders. The purpose of this final scientific paper is to report the results of nursing care provided to an elderly patient (Mrs. N) with gout arthritis. Based on the assessment conducted, Mrs. N complained of pain in her legs with a pain scale of 4 NRS, throbbing pain in the knee area, big toe joint, and back of the ankle, breathing rate of 24 breaths per minute, and rarely adhering to dietary restrictions. The nursing diagnosis identified was chronic pain related to metabolic disorders, with the intervention provided being a decoction of bay leaves. Overall, the nursing intervention was implemented for three consecutive days. The evaluation results showed that the pain scale decreased from a score of 4 on the NRS to 2 on the NRS after the herbal tea intervention. It is recommended that the client continue the intervention as taught to achieve optimal and sustainable results.
