Hi all. I hope someone can help me with this.

Im working on an assignment to prioritise nursing care to a patinet who has a abdominoperineal resection. He was not eating well. Low HB of 80, low calcium amd magnesium. No signs of potaassium imbalance. Has asthma and dehydrated. He is in pain. Has a perineal drain, stoma, IDC, and IVC insitued. Now my nursing diagnosis that i have placed are 1. Ineffective airway clearance, second is deficient fluid volume and for my third one (in priority order i dont know whether to put risk of infection OR imbalanced nutrition: less than what the body requires. I will really appreciate your help.
