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.

Many thanks in adavnaced

I posted an answer to this for you to your post on the Nursing Student Assistance Forum: https://allnurses.com/forums/f205/nursing-prioritisation-345771.html. There are so many requests for care plan questions that I cannot get to them as quickly as students would like. I also have not been feeling well the last few days. Please be patient.
