Dumb question. I can't really think right now, but is it possible to labor during a c-section?
In my clinical assignment, I had a patient that was induced for labor (or induction of labor, however you say it). Well, after a day and a half, the patient only dilated 2 cm, so she had to undergo a c-section. I am also looking for confirmation or suggestions on this. The patient didn't have any complications.
Problems:
The only thing was that the patient lost 800 ml of blood and her H&H decreased a bit below normal range, but not enough to consider her anemic I guess, the doc didn't even order an iron supplement or prenatal vitamin.
The patient had tric but was not treated with anything for it (??).
The patient had acute pain in her back during labor and pain at her incision site postpartum.
The patient doesn't want to breastfeed.m I can't think for the life of me of any risk factors or nursing diagnosis besides these:
Risk for impaired comfort related to acute back pain.
Risk for altered parent-infant attachment.
I don't understand how to come up with a nursing diagnosis for this patient when she is almost perfectly fine (??)
