help with defining strength and weakness

Hi am working on my care plan and having some trouble with sorting out my strengths and weaknesses.

I have a pt with 3+ pitting edema and is currently on lasix. the pt total I&Os are; total intake 940mL and total out put of 4500 mL. this makes an intake deficit of 3310 mL. How do I classify this, isn't this what we want?

Thanks

I guess I'm confused....strengths and weaknesses? For our care plans we have a nursing diagnosis, the outcome criteria or goals for the Dx, what nursing interventions we'll perform to reach those goals, the rationale for the nursing intervention and then the evaluation of the outcome with a re-plan if necessary.

I have to second CuriousMe - I have no clue what you're talking about re:Strengths and Weaknesses. Sounds like you have just cause to ask your clinical instructor a question.
