Hi, I'm new to this website and I think it's a great place for info. Can someone give me a little help with my nursing diagnosis. A little background first. Patient is having a bowel resection within the next few days and has an active infection (pneumonia), she is also anemic and her religious belief forbids blood products. So I think the most important diagnosis would be Risk for shock but it's the related to part that always gets me, mine seem to never be good enough for my instructor I can't include the surgery because she hasn't gone through it yet, but what about risk for shock related to active infection and low RBC count secondary to anemia? Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
