Angio can cause a risk for bleeding/hematoma but he had gotten it done before I had my shift there fore I was not considering it in my nursing diagnosis section Angio results showed 3 blockages therefore from that I got the risk for decrease cardiac perfusion

He didn't really have any other symptoms while in the hospital other then visiting the hospital because within the last few months he was chest pain and SOB on exertion (angina). He did have a sinus bradycardia rhythm of 53 and BP of 144/79. His labs came back with high cholesterol, and LDLs. Hes also been having insomnia. During the shift, he was very anxious about having an angiogram done, and after finding out that he had to have open heart surgery he became tearful and was asking a lot of questions So far ive decided my top 3 were risk for decreased cardiac tissue perfusion Activity intolerance anxiety

I have an essay i have to write in regards to patient who has CAD and multiple risks factors such as diabetes, hypertension and obesity. He presented to the hospital with chest pain and shortness of breath on exertion and decided to get it check out after a few months. the diagnosis ive come up with are risk for decreased cardiac tissue perfusion Activity intolerance Anxiety Overweight Deficient knowledge Risk for ineffective coping Im having difficulty with choosing the top 3 and placing them according to Maslow's hierarchy of needs. i think i was able to determine all the main nursing diagnosis for this patient also but i may be missing some Any help would be great thanks
