title: Acute intermittent porphyria: a nursing case study.
abstract: Nursing care for a patient with AIP can be challenging. AIP is a complex disease with various signs and symptoms and is often misdiagnosed. Recognition of the signs and symptoms of AIP could be life-saving. Ways to avoid exacerbations, as well as counseling regarding possible genetic transmission, are important aspects of the nursing care of individuals with AIP.
