verbalized by the mother. OBJECTIVE: • • • •
Increased body temperature. Flushed skin. Increased respiratory rate. V/S taken as follows: T: 37.7 P: 130 R: 45
DIAGNOSIS Risk for infection related to compromised immune system.
INFERENCE
PLANNING
Sepsis is a clinical term used to describe symptomatic bacteremia, with or without organ dysfunction. Sustained bacteremia, in contrast to transient bacteremia, may result in a sustained febrile response that may be associated with organ dysfunction. Septicemia refers to the active multiplication of bacteria in the bloodstream that results in an overwhelming infection.
After 8 hours of nursing interventions, the patient will achieve timely healing and free from further infection.
INTERVENTION INDEPENDENT: • Provide isolation and monitor visitors as indicated.
RATIONALE
EVALUATION
•
Body substance isolation (BSI) should be used for all infectious patients. Reverse isolation/restricti on of visitors may be needed to protect the immunosuppress ed patient.
