could lead to fondling his own genitals as a normal area of exploration. According to the mother, the client was able to distinguish a boy from a girl. He was able to determine the work of a man from a woman like a woman cooks food while a man drives a car and does carpentry. He can also determine the sex of his playmates if he or she is a boy or a girl. DEVELOPMENTAL TASK OF ERIKSON: Initiative vs. Guilt - Learning initiative is learning how to do things. The child initiates motor activities of various sorts on their own and no longer merely responds or imitates the actions of parents or other children.

The mother also allows the child to play with toys that would develop his skills like coloring books and molding clays. Also, the mother noted that the client enjoys playing outside their house with his playmates. PIAGETS THEORY OF COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT: Preoperational Thought (Intuitive Thought) - Thought becomes symbolic. The child tends to look at an object and see only one of its characteristics. He knows the different parts of the body, able to count from one to twenty, and was able to differentiate shapes of certain object being shown to him. Also, when asked what is the use of a key, the client thinks that it is only a metal and it doesnt have a purpose. KOHLBERGS THEORY OF MORAL DEVELOPMENT: Preconventional - They tend to do good out of self-interest rather than out of true intent to do good or because of a strong spiritual motivation. They imitate what they see and have great difficulty knowing what rules apply to new situations. When asked the reason why he has to eat the vegetables, the client answered that it is what his mother and father instructed him to do. He doesnt know that eating vegetables would be for his own good. He imitates his siblings when they kiss the hands of the elders because he knows if he did that, he would make his parents proud.

E. Data from the Textbook: Definition of diagnosis: Kawasaki Disease- is an acute febrile illness with inflammation of small and medium size blood vessels throughout the body in particular, the coronary arteries (blood vessels around the heart). It is also known as Mucocutaneous Lymph Node Syndrome. It is most likely caused by a very common infectious microorganism that only causes problems in a small number of in predisposed individuals. - infectious disease caused by bacteria or bacterial super antigens (particularly Streptococcus pyogenes) and/or virus: because Kawasaki disease is rarely seen in adults, this suggests that adults may have developed immunity with the causative agent. The disease is usually self-limiting and resolves spontaneously without treatment within 4-8 weeks. S/S FROM THE BOOK 1. FEVER (ABOVE 39 DEGREES CELSIUS) S/S MANIFESTE D BY CLIENT RATIONALE When infectious bugs stimulate white blood cells in a specific way, they release a substance called endogenous pyrogenes which signals the brains hypothalamus to raise the bodys thermostat setting. In turn, the body heats up by increasing its metabolic rate, shivering or seeking warm environment. Kawasaki Disease is also known as the Mucocutaneous Lymph Node Syndrome. The microorganism responsible for the occurrence of this disease will attack and invade some of the mucous membranes in the body including conjunctiva. As microorganism attacks, the inflammatory response of the body will be activated particularly causing the conjunctiva to be inflamed. Because microorganism attacks the body, immune response will be activated. Basophils will dilate the passageway including the capillaries to have more amount of blood to be perfused so as rashes may be visible. Dilation of passageway is necessary to attract more monocytes / macrophages against microorganisms. Kawasaki Disease is also known as the Mucocutaneous Lymph Node Syndrome. The microorganism responsible for the occurrence of this disease will attack and invade some of the mucous membranes in the body including oral mucous membrane. As microorganism attacks, the inflammatory response of the body will be activated particularly causing the oral mucous membrane to be red and be dried. Caused by tissue erythema and prominent papillae.

Kawasaki Disease involves inflammation of the blood vessels. And because of the inflammation, it make the blood vessel weak and might break. Then the calcium from the bones will fill up that break as a process of calcification. As a result there will be a smaller passage of the blood and much pressure will cause the aneurysm. Due to the entry of the microorganisms responsible for the occurrence of this disease in the human body, making the individual immunosuppressed thus there will be loss of appetite. Loss of appetite may result to accumulation of gastric acids in the stomach making individual to vomit.

PTB (Primary Complex) - is chronic recurrent infections. Disease that usually affects the lungs, although any organ can be affected. It is transmitted by droplet nuclei airborne droplets produced when an infected person sneeze, coughs, speaks or sings. Infection may occur when a susceptible host breathes in air containing droplet nuclei and the contaminated particle to reach the alveoli. S/S FROM THE TEXTBOOK 1. FATIGUE S/S MANIFESTED BY PATIENT RATIONALE Because of fever, an individual would experience discomfort. The body would decrease the glycogen reserve that leads to hypoxia or muscle wasting. Therefore, there would be not enough oxygen that would circulate in the body. Due to discomfort, anorexia and weight loss may occur. The bacteria causes infiltration and granuloma which releases chemicals that results to loss of appetite. Cough may indicate serious pulmonary disease. It result from irritation of the mucus membranes anywhere in the respiratory tract. Due to presence of secretions, the client would stimulate to release these secretions. Purulent discharge is due to infection while bloodtinged sputum appears because of the irritation of the mucous

membranes. 5. LOW GRADE AFTERNOON FEVER AND NIGHT SWEATS Inhalation of mycobacterium invades the alveoli that activates the t-cells. An inflammatory response would occur that stimulates WBC to release pyrogens that signals the hypothalamus to increase heat and raise the metabolic rate.

Prevents the patient from transferring infection to other people.

Discussion with actual demonstration from nurse then a return demonstration from the patients.

Patient has prolonged exhalation. Patient demonstrated good breathing exercise through performing procedure closely as how nurse did the exercise.

Effective handwashing requires at least 15 seconds of vigorous scrubbing with special attention to the area around the nail beds and in between fingers, where there is a high burden. Hands should be thoroughly rinsed after this washing then dry their hands with clean towel. Do this especially before and after meals.
