always start with your "abcs"...airway, breathing, circulation. based on what you have said, you can use:

altered tissue perfusion (paleness of skin)

ineffective breathing pattern (rr of 30 and plueral effusion)

pain (pleural effusion/edema in leg)

impaired gas exchange (plueral effusion)

risk for infection (drainage from ctt)

risk for skin integrity (diabetic)

knowledge deficit (typhoid fever/pleural effusion)

risk for ineffective coping (unable to perform usual adls)

you can go on, and on, and on....hopefully that will get you guys started with your critical thinking. good luck on your presentation and let us know how you all did!
