I need help w/ (3) case studies

Case study 1: pt presents SOB, T 101, chills and fever onset last 6 hr, had a cold (6) weeks ago, tired, weak, and inc SOB w/ exertion

Case study 2: loss of appetite, diarrhea, lower abd pain, chills and fever, not eaten past 2d, small red generalized spider appearing marks on upper torso, fresh needle marks in lt ac.

Case study 3: h/o DVT, swollen lt calf pain to touch, smoker---I suspect cellulitis.

nursing student here too, my guesses:

1. i would check pt CBC: WBC, segs, band - infection?

2. allergic reaction - new med? or post-surgical complication if any performed?

3. cellulitis? or PVD? check for meds: coumadin, ASA, INR, PT, APTT?

that are my ideas. at least hope something apply to your cases. good luck with your school. :)

Our teacher kinda went w/ our guesses of pneumonia, drug abuse, and cellulitis and the nursing interventions that we provided. One guy has been an ER tech for a long-time so he was able to provide the most meaningful info from our group.
