Physiological mode | Physiological, Safety, love/belonging, esteem, self-actualization |
What are the 8 components of Physiological mode? | 1)Oxygenation 2) Fluid & electrolyte 3) Nutrition 4) Elimination 5) Activity & Rest 6) Protection 7) Neurosensory 8) Endocrine |
Oxygenation Mode | -basic vital need; need oxygen balance at all times; "ABCs" |
Fluid & Electrolytes | -Important mode for fluid balance -circulation of fluid volume -electrolyte balance important for homeostasis -Assess GU and GI tract -conditions that may lead to ineffective behaviors: gastric ulcers, too much acidity, obstruction in bowels,tumor |
Nutrition Mode | -Calorie intake and balance -Essential for tissue repair and basic energy needs -No nutrition leads to major infection, bone decay, skin pressure ulcers |
Elimination Mode | -Healthy bowel & bladder programs -Regulation of waste -Conditions that may disrupt one's routine? Benign prostate hypertrophy & UTI |
Rest & Activity Mode | -Assessment of musculoskeletal system (Bones and muscles, Movement, Strength, Stability) -Vitamin D and calcium helps to activate calcium level |
Protection Mode | -An assessment of the Immune & Integumentary Systems (primary & secondary defence mechanism) |
Neuro Sensory Mode | -Assessment of neuro status: GCS/LOC, Behaviors, speech, cognitive status, motor status -Pain status -Sensory Perception |
Endocrine Mode | -Assessment of patient's endocrine function -thyroid, pituitary problems, adrenal glands |
