Hi! I am working on my first care plan for my OB rotation and had a 32 yr old mother who had a c-section and was recovering well. One of my nursing diagnosis is impaired skin integrity r/t abdominal incision aeb ......... This is where i am stuck! I know the aeb is suppose to be the symptoms that describe the abdominal incision but i am drawing a blank! I do not know what to put after the as evidence by...Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated and her incison had no redness, discharge, drainage..nothing was wrong with it and it was healing nicely. I was also wondering if this nursing diagnosis would be okay: Fatigue r/t lack of sleep aeb baby crying during the night and visitors in and out of room...does that sound okay? Thank You Thank You

My pts admitting diagnosis was sepsis: severe infection brought on by blood products that can become infected from improper handling and storage. Bacteria contamination of blood produts can result in it. Organisms that cause sepsis are gram pos or negative.

Help! The last thing that's holding me up are my long term goals! I wrote out my 4 but my teacher said I need to make them measurable and have a date at the end of each! Here's my 4 long term goals for my patient with sepsis and altered mental state: patient remains free of signs and symptoms of infection by discharge (pt had sepsis) patient will consume adequate nourishment each day through end of life(my teacher said what is adequate nourishment?) patients wounds/ lesions will heal upon return to nursing home( pt was 89 had stage 2 pressure ulcer on coccyx area and reddened back) patient will use effective communication techniques by time of discharge and continue using effective communication techniques through rehab and speech therapy( pt was nonverbal) Any suggestions/guidence I would greatly apprectiate

Thank you!!! I wasn't sure but I ended up looking up meningitis too! I ended up putting that nursing diagnosis on my careplan and I turn it in today so... It better be right :)

Are you trying to answer my question or are you starting a new one?

Hi All, could Sepsis cause an alteration in the CNS? My nursing diagnosis is impaired verbal communication r/t alteration in the cns can that work for sepsis? Thanks for any help!!!

So could sepsis cause an alteration in the cns?

Here's my assessment data! Bp: 108/64, temp: 96.7 pulse: 70 resp: 14 decreased cardiac output, impaired skin integrity, social interaction impaired, chronic confusion, risk for injury, risk for dehydration, imbalanced nutrition, ineffective protection my priority nursing dx was infection rt microorganism in the body but I have to change infection to something nanda improved! Any thoughts on what that could be?

I changed social interaction impaired to impaired verbal communication r/t psychological barriers which would be my pt's depression and for my interventions I put: allow body contact such as touching to show you care and your presence, limit the number of people in the room at bedside so you don't overwhelm the pt and do not push communication. I worked on the impaired comfort and got ten! My priority nursing dx is: infection r/t microorganism invasion into the body. Do you think this is a good one? I looked in my nurses pocket guide Ed 12 and they only have risk for infection not just infection by itself. Is this still nanda approved? Thank you!

Yes I choose those because we have to have a total of 10 nursing diagnosis with 10 interventions each and those are the last 2 I need help with!
