nursing process | creative, logical, scientifically based problem solving process for providing client care |
purpose of nursing process | to identify, diagnose, and treat actual or potential human responses to health and illness |
caring for clients incorporates _____________ and critical thinking behaviors | nursing process |
_____________ is responsive to changes in clients needs (flexible-changing as client's condition changes) | nursing process |
_____________ helps nurse to manage each patient's care scientifically, holistically, and creatively | nursing process |
5 phases of nursing process | ADPIE: Assessment, Diagnosis, Planning, Implementation, Evaluation |
purpose of assessment | to establish a data base |
components of assessment | interview & health history, physical examination |
physical examination techniques | IAPP: inspection, auscultation, palpation percussion |
auscultation | listening to body sounds w/stethoscope |
palpation | use of hands |
percussion | tapping on body surface to determine density of underlying tissue |
primary source of data for assessment | client/patient |
secondary source of data for assessment | family members, friends, nurse's own observations |
tertiary source | medical records, other medical staff |
subjective data | what subject says; what patient tells you; no objective proof for data; examples: pain, nausea |
objective data | what nurse can observe, measure (see, feel, smell, etc.); examples: vital signs, diagnostic studies, laboratory values |
nursing diagnosis | process of identifying specific client responses to actual or potential health problems or life processes (identification of problems and/or strengths) |
a _____________ identifies a disease condition | medical diagnosis |
a _____________ identifies response of patient or patient's body to that disease process/problem/condition | nursing diagnosis |
_____________ change as client's responses change | nursing diagnoses |
_____________ distinguish nurse's role from physician's role | nursing diagnoses |
_____________ are those client responses that are legally treatable within domain of nursing | nursing diagnoses |
_____________ is delineated by state Nurse Practice Act | nursing domain |
begin phase of _____________ by clustering and analyzing | nursing diagnosis |
data cluster | a set of signs or symptoms that are grouped together in a logical order |
data cluster | cues or groups of data indicating a client problem or health need |
diagnostic labels | (the problem in the diagnostic statement) are NANDA approved |
NANDA | provides nurses with common terminology |
types of nursing diagnoses - actual | a need or a problem actually exists |
types of nursing diagnoses - actual | describes a human response to health conditions or life processes that exist in individual, family, or community; example: impaired skin integrity |
types of nursing diagnoses - risk (potential) | there is an increased chance that the problem will develop |
types of nursing diagnoses - risk (potential) | describes human responses to health conditions or life processes that have a chance of developing in a vulnerable individual, family, or community; example: risk for infection |
types of nursing diagnoses - wellness | there is readiness for improvement/enhancement |
types of nursing diagnoses - wellness | describes human responses to levels of wellness in individual group, or community that have a readiness for enhancement or improvement; example: readiness for enhanced coping |
types of nursing diagnoses - wellness | client wishes to achieve an optimal level of health |
types of nursing diagnoses - possible | nurse does not have enough data to confirm diagnosis...only enough to suspect a problem or need; RNs response is to gather more data |
formula for nursing diagnostic statement | problem (diagnostic label-NANDA approved) related to + etiology (cause) of the problem + as evidence by signs & symptoms of problem |
________________ must be within domain of nursing practice & condition that will respond to nursing interventions | etiology |
etiologies exist in these categories | biological/psychological, treatment related, situational (environmental or personal), & maturational |
________________ has only 2 parts: problem related to r/t etiology | risk diagnosis |
________________ is risk factor | etiology |
________________ it explains cause of risk | etiology |
example of complete nursing diagnostic statement | knowledge deficit, course: health promotion r/t failure to study assignment as evidenced by grade avg. 50% (obj. data) & student's statement (subj. data), "I don't understand class material, but then, I haven't read assignments or studied my notes." |
planning: step #1 | establish client centered outcomes/goals. |
expected outcomes/short term goals | steps toward goal achievement; these will be achieved over hours to weeks |
long term goals | reflect ultimate/best outcome/resolution of the problem & is achieved over weeks to months |
long term goal | will indicate that problem has been solved |
properly constructed outcomes/goals will be | client behavior/client centered |
properly constructed outcomes/goals will be | singular (include only one client behavior) |
properly constructed outcomes/goals will be | observable |
properly constructed outcomes/goals will be | measurable |
properly constructed outcomes/goals will be | time limited: within specific time frame |
properly constructed outcomes/goals will be | realistic |
developed with client & serve as criteria for evaluation | outcomes/goals |
excellent goals/outcomes | will be one client behavior that is realistic, observable, measurable & contains time frame; e.g., client will have soft, formed bowel movement by 0800, 10/4/09 |
planning: step #2 | select interventions (nursing actions are chosen/decided upon) |
interventions | those nursing actions that will assist client in reaching outcomes/goals (assist in resolving problem) |
types of nursing interventions - nurse initiated | within scope of Nurse Practice Act |
Nurse Practice Act | those actions nurse may take independently...no doctor's order needed |
types of nursing interventions - physician initiated | based on physician's response to treat or manage medical diagnosis |
types of nursing interventions - collaborative | therapies that require knowledge, skill & expertise of multiple health care professionals |
interventions | must be appropriate, address problem identified in nursing diagnosis, & move client toward goal achievement |
interventions | written as nursing orders (specific nursing actions to assist client's in reaching goals) |
interventions | must be specific, concise, & individualized for client |
nursing orders | direct nursing staff in client's care |
nursing orders include instructions to | assess, administer, monitor, provide, perform, or teach |
implementation | the carrying out of interventions |
implementation | nursing actions: assessment, dressing changes, etc., doing! |
evaluation | measurement of client's response to nursing interventions & client's progress toward achieving goals |
evaluative statement | declare whether goal was met, not met, or partially met |
evaluative statement | describe how it was met or partially met or why it was not met |
if goals were not met, __________________...entire sequence of nursing process is repeated...beginning w/assessment | nursing process begins again |
if goals were met, ________________ | nursing care plan is discontinued |
nursing care plan | addresses one client problem/need |
nursing care plan | one nursing diagnosis & is written guideline for individualized care |
nursing care plan | developed for each nursing diagnosis |
nursing care plan includes | nursing diagnostic statement |
nursing care plan includes | short & long term expected outcomes/goals |
nursing care plan includes | interventions (nursing orders) |
interventions | actions that will lead to resolution of client problem |
intervention | each one must have scientific rationale |
scientific rationale | explains why/how intervention will assist client in reacting outcomes/goals & eventually resolve problem stated in nursing diagnosis |
nursing care plan includes | evaluative statment |
