OBJECTIVE: T: 36.7 C. PR: 85 bpm RR: 37 cpm BP: 150/90 mmhg With rapid and shallow respirations Breath sound: Wheezing Uses accessory muscles to aid in breathing
NURSING DIAGNOSSIS Ineffective airway clearance related to bronchospasm, decreased lung expansion secondary to asthma.
SCIENTIFIC BASIS
The physiologic changes in lung ventilation that occur during an acute asthma attack impair both lung expansion and emptying. Anxiety caused by hypoxia and dyspnea compounds the problem by increasing the respiratory rate. REF: Brunner & Suddarth’s Medical Surgical Nursing 13th Edition. Virtual Medical Centre (2002– 2018)
GOAL In span of 1 hour of nursing intervention The client will be able to establish an effective respiratory pattern so as to provide adequate ventilation as manifested by stabilizing respiratory rate,decreasing chest tightness, slight to no nasal flaring and decreasing usage of accessory muscles.
NURSING INTERVENTION Independent 1. Frequently assess respiratory rate, pattern, and breath sounds. Note manifestations of ineffective breathing.
RATIONALE
1. Early identification of ineffective respirations allows timely initiation of interventions.
2.Monitored vital signs
2. Tachypnea, tachycardia, an elevated blood pressure, and increasing hypoxemia and hypercapnia are signs of compromised respiratory status.
3. Assisted with selfcare activities.
3. This conserves energy and reduces fatigue.
4. Provided rest periods between scheduled activities and treatments
4. Scheduled rest is important to prevent fatigue and reduce oxygen demands.
5. Placed in High Fowler’s position
5. These positions reduce the work of breathing and increases lung
Exhibits nasal flaring

However, wheezes can still be auscultated from all lung fields and there is still usage of accessory muscles and nasal flaring

NURSING DIAGNOSSIS Acute pain related to intrauterine tissue damage secondary to Uterine Myoma.
SCIENTIFIC BASIS
Uterine fibroids are benign smooth muscle tumors of the uterus. The exact cause is unclear. However, fibroids run in families and appear to be partly determined by hormone levels. Symptoms depend on the location and size of the fibroid. Important symptoms include abnormal uterine bleeding, heavy or painful periods, abdominal discomfort or bloating, painful defecation, back ache, urinary frequency or retention, and in some cases, infertility.

1. An immediate response to reports of pain may decrease anxiety in the patient.
After 1 hour of nursing intervention the client verbalizes minimize pain from 8 to 3 pain scale (partially goal met)
2. Monitor Vital sign

3. Provide rest periods to promote relief, sleep, and relaxation.
3. A peaceful and quiet environment may facilitate rest.
4. Encourage diversional activities and relaxation techniques such as focused breathing and imaging
4. To distract attention and reduce tension
5. Encourage and assist client to do deep breathing exercises
5. Deep breathing exercises contribute to relief of pain

NURSING DIAGNOSSIS
SCIENTIFIC BASIS
Diabetes mellitus Fatigue Is a group of metabolic related to diseases characterized decrease by increased levels of muscular glucose in the blood strength resulting from defects secondary in insulin secretion, to Diabetes insulin action, or both. Mellitus In type 2 diabetes, Type 1. people have decreased sensitivity to insulin and impaired beta cell functioning resulting in decreased insulin production. Glucose derived from food cannot be stored in the liver thereby remaining into the bloodstream. The beta cells of the islets of Langerhans release glucagon which stimulates the liver to release the stored glucose. After 8 ± 12 hours, the liverforms glucose from the breakdown of noncarboghydrate substances, including amino acids resulting to muscle wasting which results

SCIENTIFIC BASIS
GOAL
NURSING INTERVENTION
Risk for blood volume deficit related to heavy menstruatio n secondary to Uterine Myoma.
Uterine polyps are formed by the overgrowth of endometrial tissue. They are attached to the endometrium by a thin stalk or a broad base and extend inward into the uterus. The polyps may be round or oval, and range in size from a few millimeters (the size of a sesame seed) to a few centimeters or larger. There may be one or several polyps present. Uterine polyps are usually benign (noncancerous), but they may cause problems with menstruation (periods) or fertility.
