Need Help Right Now For Nanda Paper Due At 5:00!!!

Hi Guys! I am in desperate need of someone who has their NANDA book on them. I am at the library in a snowstorm and forgot my NANDA book & the trains aren't running right now so I have no way of getting back to my apartment to get my book (which I cannot BELIEVE I forgot).

I need to make one more diagnosis on this old lady who is possibly at risk for fall, seems a little depressed, all her family members are dead so I already did a Risk for Loneliness diagnosis. She's in the hospital from a fall and a new a-fibrillation. She has peripheral neuropathy and cannot perform any self-care, and can only ambulate with assistance.

I NEED ONE MORE DIAGNOSIS and my paper has to be emailed to my precepter by 5:00. It's 1:00 now!! EEK! PLEASE HELP IF YOU HAVE YOUR NANDA BOOK HANDY by telling me any possible diagnosis that jumps out at you & the definition of it according to NANDA, as well as the risk factors/defining characteristics. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

3. Decreased cardiac output r/t reduced stroke volume as a result of electrophysiologice problems

6. Fear r/t lack of support system

7. Risk for infection r/t recent surgical implant device

8. Knowledge deficit r/t lack of exposure
