nursing diagnosis help please

[jxoxo]

Hey guys im doing my first care plan (group presentation, 1 ns diagnosis per person) and have to come up with a nursing diagnosis for a young jewish mother of 2 toddlers who has been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. This is what i came up withe for the diagnosis part:

activity intolerance r/t generalized weakness and fatigue aeb inability to perform daily physical activities.

i was wondering if the related factors have to be listed in the nanda book or not because i used fatigue as a realted factor although it is not listed. also id like to know if my aeb is too broad ? should i make it more specific such as "aeb patient verbalization of weakness/ exhaustion?" all help is appreciated ... please let me know anything else im missing my teacher did not explain this very well!!

Not wanting to change you whole diagnosis but I would put

Risk for impaired parenting r/t physical illness secondary to hyperthyroidism aeb patient verbalization of exhaustion and weakness.

I used parenting just because the instructor tossed in the fact that she was a young mother.

i would still keep activity intolerance r/t hyperthyroidism aeb generalized weakness, fatigue, and inability to perform ADL's

okay thanks for the help. I think i am just going to keep the activity intolerance since i already started and presentation is due tomorrow i just have a question about the nursing interventions and rationales. are these suppose to be taken out of the book (nursing diagnosis handbook , ackley & ladwig) or do i make them up or what? Also, some of the interventions in the book for activity intolerance do not have rationales ... what do i do about that ? i am suppose to have a rationale for each nursing diagnosis. thanksss in advance !

We aren't allowed to use medical diagnoses in our care plans, which can cause us to have to get creative but otherwise this sounds good. Perhaps your school does allow you to use the diagnosis?
