immunological response to infection
Focus of
physical
assessment

(quality/characteristics/location)

extremities. Assess for SIRS T> 38C
HR>90 RR>20 PaCo2 <32 WBC>12000

intensity scale (1-10) spread pain (To help
evaluate the place of obstruction and
cause pain)
-Give analgesics according to the
treatment program.
-Provide comfortable action, bleak back
rub, the rest. (Improve relaxation, reduce
muscle tension)
-Assist or encourage the use of focused
relaxation breathing.
-Give adequate rest and activity levels
2. Nurse will monitor meal consumption
and encourage>75% of food
consumption.
Monitor redness, swelling, and warmth
and compare to boundaries marked by
previous shifts
Administer ABX as ordered. Elevate
extremities

3. Erythema and edema improving AEB


wrinkling to the skin and improving mobility
and pain.
1) Pain to leg 7/10 upon ambulation.
Patient reports that that pain resolves

PRN antipyretics Q4hrs for Temp above
100.4 and evaluate effectiveness, provide
fan, remove excess bedding as needed and
administer cool compress to neck, armpit
and groin area.

before due to UTIs. She stated her last
hospitilization was 10 plus years prior.
Patient stated her sister is a willing donor. She
plans to undergo a kidney transplant after she

fufills the dialysis requirment.


Top three
priorities (goals)
for patient care

2. Pain is controlled and at an acceptable level.

2. Maintain body temperature within


normal range.

and maintaining appropriate body
temperature.

UOP was adequate light yellow. No foul odor,

frequent urination and moderate fluid intake
(renal diet)
4. Monitored respirations. RR 18, unlabored
and regular rhythm. Breath sounds were
diminished to lower lobes. Chest X ray
showed pleural effusion to base of right lung.
SPO2 was 97%. Encouraged use of IS.
Patient was only able to do 2 breaths per hour
(500ml). Performed a desat. Study. Patient
was able to ambulate 200 feet with no decrease
in SPO2.

(Flush bacteria)
Observations of changes in mental status:,

Teaching
needed/provided

Discharge
planning

-Drug regimen (purpose, timing,


frequency, duration, and possible side
effects)-The role of nutrition and adequate
fluid intake-The manifestations of disease
recurrence. -The use of previously

potassium. A renal failure diet can help
