NURSING PROCESS Set by: Rebira W.

Objectives By the end of this presentation participants will be able to : Explain historical perspective of nursing process Define nursing process Explain the characteristics of the Nursing process Mention the components/steps of nursing process

Outline Historical perspective of nursing process Definition of N ursing process Characteristics of Nursing Process Components/Steps of Nursing Process Summary

Historical Perspective of Nursing Process In 1955 by Lydia Hall Mentioned the term nursing process for the first time She introduced three steps of nursing process: Observation Administration of care & Validation

Historical Perspective of Nursing Process… In the late 1950 th Johnson & In the early 1960 th Orlando & Wiedenbach They introduced three steps of nursing process Assessment Planning & Evaluation . In the late 1960 th Yura & Walsh identified four steps in the nursing process Assessment Planning Implementation & Evaluation

Historical Perspective of Nursing Process… Nursing diagnosis was added as a separate and distinct step in the nursing process by the North American Nursing Diagnosis Association ( NANDA ) in 1974 . Prior to this, nursing diagnosis had been included as a natural conclusion to the first step, assessment.

Historical Perspective of Nursing Process… Latter in 1991 ANA included outcome identification as a specific part of the planning phase making the nursing process five steps. Currently the nursing process consists of six phases or steps : assessment, diagnosis, outcome identification , planning interventions, implementation, and evaluation.

Historical Perspective of Nursing Process…

Nursing Process Definition of nursing process Is a systematic problem- solving approach toward giving individualized nursing care. Is a systematic method that directs the nurse and patient as together they accomplish each steps in the nursing process. The diagnosis and treatment of human responses to actual and potential health problems or illness ( ANA, 1995 )

Nursing Process … An organized and systematic process of giving goal oriented (problem solving) and humanistic nursing care (holistic) that is both effective and efficient to patient/client (individual, family or community ). It is the “tool” and methodology of the nursing profession and, as such, helps nurses in arriving at decisions and in predicting and evaluating consequences.

Nursing Process … Definition of nurse Is a person who trained and experienced in nursing profession and interested in care of sick/well person. Has completed a program of basic, generalized nursing education and is authorized by the appropriate regulatory authority to practice nursing (ICN 1987 ).

Nursing Process … Examples of Responses Pain and discomfort Daily experience such as:- Anxiety Loss Loneliness Grief

Nursing Process … Self care limitation in the area of ADL such as: Communicating Eliminating Maintaining body temperature Expressing sexuality Working and playing Sleeping

Characteristics of Nursing Process Within the scope of practice Planned Based on knowledge-Research based Patient centered Goal directed Prioritized Dynamic and cyclic Interpersonal and collaborative Universally applicable

Steps In Nursing P rocess (ADOPIE) 1) Assessment Data Collection -Primary / Symptoms-Directly from the pt -Secondary/ Signs-By health providers 2) Diagnosis -Analysis of data 3) Outcome Identification -Setting measurable criteria 4 ) Planning -Goals Prioritized

Steps In Nursing Process ( ADOPIE)… 5 ) Implementation Intervention Action 6 ) Evaluation Goal met? Reassessment NB Today Outcome Identification is added as the sixth step of nursing process

Steps In Nursing Process ( ADOPIE )…

Summary Nursing process is a dynamic, systematic, cyclic, client centered way of providing individualized and holistic nursing care. It encompasses six sequential and interlinked steps (assessment, diagnosis, outcome identification, planning intervention, implementation, and evaluation).

NURSING ASSESSMENT Set by: Rebira W.

Objectives By the end of this presentation participants will be able to : Define nursing assessment Describe types of assessment Identify the four phases of assessment List the sources of data Discriminate between subjective and objective data Describe how data is collected Describe a method of organizing data Assess patients using 11 Gordon’s functional health patterns as nursing assessment tool

Outline Definition of assessment Types of assessment Phases of assessment S ources of data Method of data collection Functional health patterns Summary

What is Nursing Assessment? Breakout 1

Nursing Assessment Definition A systematic collection of subjective and objective data from patients, family, or community with the goal of making clinical judgment about patient , family, or community . Is the 1 st phase of nursing process. Is the collection of data for nursing purposes.

Note Remains accessible to the entire health care team during the course of patient stay Do not duplicate medical assessments Medical assessments -Target pathologic conditions Nursing assessments - F ocus on the patient’s responses

Breakout 2 Why we do nursing assessment?

Purpose 1.To establish baseline information on the client 2. To determine the client’s Normal function Abnormal function Risk for dysfunction & Strengths 3. To provide data for the diagnosis phase

PREPARING FOR ASSESSMENT Type Aim Time Frame 1. Initial Ass’t -Initial ass’t of normal function, functional status, & collection of data concerning actual or potential dysfunction -Baseline for reference & future comparison Within the specified time frame after admission to hospital, nursing home, ambulatory healthcare center 2. Focus-Assessment Status determination of a specific problem identified during previous assessment Ongoing process, integrated with nursing care, a few minutes to a few hours b/n ass’t

... … … … 3. Time- lapsed Rea ss’t -Comparison of ct’s current status to baseline obtained previously -Detection of changes in all functional health patterns after an extended period of time has passed Several months( 3,6,9 months or more ) b/n ass’t 4. Emergency Ass’t Identification of life –threatening situation At any time

Phases of Assessment Data collection Data validation Data organization / Clustering Recording and reporting

Sources of data Primary Most reliable From patient 2 . Secondary Family members Significant others Other health professionals Health records

Types of data Objective data Subjective Data Breakout 3: Describe and Give Examples

Subjective Data Symptoms or covert cues including patient feeling Information perceived only by the affected person Cannot be perceived or verified by another person Examples: I feel sick I have stomach ache Nausea

Objective data Sign or overt cues Observable, perceptible/detectable and measurable data Seen, validated , heard or felt by someone other than the person experiencing it Obtained through observation, standard assessment techniques (physical examination, laboratory and diagnostic testing)

Objective data… Examples: Pulse: Rate 100 beats per minute, strong and regular Distended abdomen Hemoglobin 9 mg/ dL

Breakout 4 Ato Hailu is 51 years old admitted 2 days ago with chest pain. The physician in charge ordered the following studies- ECG, and complete blood counts. He states “I feel much better today, no more pain. It is a relief to get rid of discomfort”. You think he appears a little tired, and seems to be talking slowly and exhale noisily more often than you think. He denies being tired. V/S: Tep 37oC, PR 74 bpm , RR 20 breaths pm, B/P 140/90 mmHg. Draw subjective and objective data from the above case history

Data Summarization Breakout 5 CASE STUDY 1: W/ ro Alem Kebede, 28 years old woman admitted with Medical Diagnosis of Acute Gastroenteritis Subjective: States… “I am weak and worried about my condition.”, “My stool is very watery and frequent” and “I’m feeling very feverish” Objective: Temp = 38.0 C (oral), Pulse = 110 per minute Respiration rate = 32 per minute, Decreased PaO2 , the nurse observed that the patient had diarrhea x 2-3 times of ½ cup per bout following admission

Assessment … GROUP WORK How will you summarize the subjective data? What other information would you collect and record using the nursing admission assessment form? 5 minutes!

Breakout 6 What are methods of data collection used during patient assessment?

Methods of data collection Client interview Doing physical examination Reviewing charts for other diagnostic findings Interviewing Is a planned communication or a conversation with a purpose Essential skill in obtaining history

Methods of data collection… Two approaches to interviewing 1. Direct interview: is highly structured and elicits specific information. 2. Non-direct interview or rapport-building interview : the nurse allows the client to control the purpose, subject matter, and pacing

Methods of data collection… It has four phases 1. Reparatory phase /pre interaction phase Occur before the nurse meet the patient Pre collecting of some information about the patient 2. Introductory phase/orientation phase Establishing rapport Clarifying role Alleviating anxiety 3. Maintenance phase /working phase 4. Concluding phase

Interviewing skills Questioning : Using open-ended questions that cannot be answered with a simple “yes” or “no’’ Facilitation : “Go on…I am listening.” (including non-verbal nodding) Direction : “I understand that many things are bothering you…could we focus on the diarrhoea for just a minute?” Summarising: "So, from what I understand, you have had a lot of nausea and some cramping, you have taken all of the pills each day this week and you want some help with these symptoms…do I have it all right?

Physical examination Is a systematic data collection method that uses the senses of Sight Hearing Smell touch Four techniques are used: Inspection Palpation Percussion auscultation

Inspection Is concentrated watching Begins the moment you first meet the individual Good to develop a “general assessment“ Start with the inspection of each body system Compare the right and left sides of the body Requires good lighting, adequate exposure, and occasional use of certain instruments

Palpation Uses the sense of touch to assess: texture , temperature, moisture , organ location and size , vibrations and pulsations , swelling , masses , and tenderness Requires a calm, gentle approach Done systematically: light palpation preceding deep palpation and palpation of tender areas performed last

Different parts of the hands to assess different factors Fingertips- best for skin texture, swelling, pulsation, and presence of lumps. A grasping action of the fingers - to detect the position, shape, and consistency of an organ or mass The dorsa (backs) of hands and fingers - best for determining temperature Base of the fingers (metatarsophalangeal joints) or ulna surface for vibration

Percussion Uses short, tapping strokes on the surface of the skin to create vibrations of underlying organs. It is used for assessing the density of structures or determining the location and the size of organs in the body.

The Five Percussion notes and their characteristics

Auscultation Involves listening to sounds in the body that are created by movement of air or fluid Areas most often Auscultated include : Lungs Heart Abdomen blood vessels.

Data validation Double -checking of the information Verifying and clarifying cues and inference Confirm the accuracy of data Methods of validation Comparing cues to normal function Referring text books, journals & research report Rechecking cues Clarifying the patient statement (ask closed end question) Seeking consensus with colleagues about inferences

Organization of data This process is known as data clustering . How data are organized depends on the assessment model used. One of these models is head – to – toe model.

D ata i nterpretation

Data interpretation Is important to identify cues and reach at inferences Helps make clinical judgments about the client

Identifying Cues and Making Inferences Cues are hints, or reminders, that prompt you to reach a conclusion about a patient needs. Subjective and objective data that you have identified act as cues Cues Subjective Data Patient states, “generalized body weakness following three days of passing loose stool in average four times a day”

Identifying Cues and Making Inferences… Inference: how you interpret or perceive a cue: Generalized body weakness following passage of loose stool, dry oral mucosa, PR: 120 beats per minute, BP: 80/50 mmHg, skin pinch going back slowly Dehydration Cues and correct inferences need: observational skills, nursing knowledge and clinical expertise

Identifying Cues and Making Inferences… Examples of cues and inferences Group of cues client has Blurry vision or visual defect, headache Tingling and numbness in extremities, dizziness Possible inferences Client has a brain tumor Client is having warning signals of a stroke Client may be diabetic, client is anxious

Identifying Cues and Making Inferences… Cues Persistent vomiting Diarrhea 4 times per day Taking nothing per os Dry oral cavity PR: 140 beats per min PB: 80/50 mmHg Wt: loss of 0.5 kg

Identifying Cues and Making Inferences… Possible inferences Imbalanced body nutrition: less than body requirement Fluid volume deficit Risk for electrolyte imbalance Diarrhea Dysfunctional gastrointestinal motility

Abdominal Organs

Abdomen: Inspection

Abdomen Inspection…

Abdomen Inspection… Is the abdomen symmetric ? Are there visible organs or masses? Look for an enlarged liver or spleen that has descended below the rib cage. Asymmetry  an enlarged organ or mass. Lower abdominal mass  an ovarian or a uterine tumor.

Abdomen Inspection… Peristalsis Observe for several minutes if you suspect intestinal obstruction. Peristalsis may be visible normally in very thin people. Increased peristaltic waves  intestinal obstruction  diarrhea

Abdomen Inspection…

Abdomen Inspection… The skin , including: Scars: Describe or diagram their location. Striae: Old silver striae or stretch marks are normal. Dilated veins: A few small veins may be visible normally. Rashes and lesions The umbilicus: contour and location, signs of inflammation or hernia .

Abdomen Inspection…

Auscultation

Abdominal Auscultation … Auscultation  bowel motility Listen to the abdomen before performing percussion or palpation these maneuvers may alter the frequency of bowel sounds. Bowel sounds: frequency and character Normal sounds consist of clicks and gurgles Frequency of 5 to 30 per minute

Abdominal Auscultation … Note that Use diaphragm of stethoscope Skin depressed to approximately 1 cm Listening in one spot is usually sufficient Listening for 15-20 or 30-60 seconds Bowel sounds cannot be said to be absent unless they are not heard after listening for 3-5 minutes in all 4 quadrants

Abdominal Auscultation

Abnormal Findings Related to Bowel Sounds Absent/hypoactive Listen for 3-5 minutes Bowel obstruction, peritonitis, paralytic ileus Low Potassium Surgical manipulation Increased Bowel sounds/hyperactive Increased motility of fluids Diarrhea

Abdominal Percussion Helps to assess: the amount and distribution of gas in the abdomen to identify possible masses that are solid or fluid filled Percuss the abdomen lightly in all four quadrants to assess the distribution of tympani and dullness . A protuberant abdomen that is tympanitic throughout suggests intestinal obstruction

Abdominal Percussion… Abdominal fluid Shifting dullness

Abdominal Percussion… Determine the size of solid organs and presence of masses, fluid and gas Percuss for liver Percuss for spleen Percuss bladder if indicated Normal percussion sound of the abdomen is tympani c Normally dull sound

Abdominal Percussion …

Abdominal Percussion and Palpation Liver Size Span of liver Midclavicular line 6-12 cm Midsternal line: 4-8 cm

Abdominal Percussion and Palpation Spleen Size If tympany existed : - ve sign (normal spleen size) If tympany changed to dullness : + ve sign (spleenomegally)

Abdominal Palpation With fingers together and flat on the abdominal surface, palpate the abdomen with a light, gentle, dipping motion On palpation watch the person's face, not your hands!

Abdominal Palpation… Light palpation Identify any superficial organs or masses Identify any area of tenderness Identify increased resistance to your hand If resistance is present, try to distinguish voluntary guarding from involuntary muscular spasm Involuntary rigidity (muscular spasm) typically persists despite these maneuvers indicates peritoneal inflammation

Abdominal Palpation… Deep palpation This is usually required to detect any organ enlargement, abdominal masses or swellings Use one hand on top of another and push down slowly. Assess for rebound tenderness by pushing slowly and then releasing your hand quickly off the tender area. Pain on withdrawal may indicate peritonitis

Abdominal Palpation… Palpate deeply in all 4 quadrants Use two hands Press down around 4 cm

Abdominal Palpation… Gentle palpation Tenderness Increased resistance Deep palpation Tenderness Mass Peritonitis Involuntary muscular rigidity Ask the patient to cough to localize pain Pain Rebound tenderness (pain on withdrawal)

Abdominal Palpation…

Assessing Possible Appendicitis The pain of appendicitis classically begins near the umbilicus, then shifts to the RLQ, where coughing increases it Localized tenderness anywhere in the RLQ, even in the right flank, may indicate appendicitis

Possible Appendicitis … a. Rebound tenderness b. Rovsing’s sign & referred rebound tenderness Press deeply and evenly in the LLQ Then quickly withdraw your fingers Rebound tenderness: Suggests peritoneal inflammation, as from appendicitis Pain in the RLQ during left-sided pressure  Positive Rovsing’s sign RLQ pain on quick withdrawal  Referred rebound tenderness

Possible Appendicitis… c . Psoas Sign: Two methods 1 st Method Place your hand just above the patient’s right knee Ask the patient to raise that thigh against your hand (extending right thigh) 2 nd Method Ask the patient to turn onto the left side Then extend the patient’s right leg at the hip Flexion of the leg at the hip makes the psoas muscle contract; extension stretches it  ed abdominal pain on either maneuver  positive psoas sign (irritation of the psoas muscle by an inflamed appendix)

Possible Appendicitis-- Psoas Sign …

Possible Appendicitis… d. Obturator Sign Flex the patient’s right thigh at the hip, with the knee bent, and rotate the leg internally at the hip This maneuver stretches the internal obturator muscle Right hypogastric pain Positive obturator sign Suggests irritation of the obturator muscle by an inflamed appendix

Possible Appendicitis-- Obturator Sign…

Possible Appendicitis… Summary possible appendicitis Psoas sign —pain on extension of right thigh (retroperitoneal retrocecal appendix) Obturator sign —pain on internal rotation of right thigh (pelvic appendix) Rovsing's sign —pain in right lower quadrant with palpation of LLQ Dunphy's sign —increased pain with coughing If the appendix has ruptured The pain becomes more diffuse Abdominal distention develops The patient’s condition worsens

NURSING DIAGNOSIS Set by: Rebira W.

After completing this session, the trainees will be able to Describe nursing diagnoses Distinguish nursing diagnoses from medical diagnoses Formulate various kinds of nursing diagnoses Identify Collaborative problems Objectives

Outline Introduction Definition of nursing diagnosis P urpose of nursing diagnosis Nursing diagnoses Vs Medical diagnoses Components of nursing diagnosis Types of nursing diagnosis Collaborative problem Summary

Introduction Transition from assessment to nursing diagnoses   Data collection Data validation Organizing data in cluster Making inferences Consult NANADA Writing nursing diagnostic Statement

Definition of Nursing diagnosis N ursing diagnosis Is the second step in the nursing process involving further analysis & synthesis of data that have been collected. Statement describing client’s actual or potential response to health problems. That the nurse is licensed and competent to treatment. Is clinical judgment about an individual, family or community response to actual or potential health problem & life processes. Provides basis for selection of nursing interventions to achieve outcomes for which the nurse is accountable.

Definition of Nursing diagnosis… NANDA : North American Nursing Diagnoses Association It is a professional organization of nurses that standardizes nursing terminology that develops researches, disseminates and refines the nomenclature, criteria, and taxonomy of nursing

NURSING DIAGNOSIS… PURPOSE Nursing diagnosis Is unique in that it focuses on a ct’s response to a health problem, rather than on the problem itself, & it provides the structure through which nursing care can be delivered. Nursing diagnosis also provide a means of effective communication Holistic client, family, & community –focused care are facilitated with the use of nursing diagnosis

Exercise 3.1: Nursing diagnoses Vs Medical diagnosis ? Instruction : Make 4 group & discuss Time allotted: 5 min Breakout

Differentiation of Nursing & Medical Diagnosis Nursing diagnosis -Focus on un healthy response to health & illness. -Describe problems treated by nurses within the scope of independent nursing practice. -Describes clients response -May change from day to day as the client’s responses change. Medical Diagnosis -Identify disease Describe problems for which the physician directs the primary treatment Refers to the disease process Remains the same for as long as the disease is present.

Differentiation of Nursing & Medical Diagnosis… Nursing di Nursing diagnosis Deals with two types of health problems (1) Human response problems (2) Pathological problems Uses the six sequential steps which need to be followed strictly within the scope of nursing practice Considers the whole person. Medical Diagnosis Deals mostly with problems with structure and function of organs or systems Uses medical approach within the scope of medical practice Mainly considers organ and system function

Differentiation of Nursing & Medical Diagnosis… Nursing diagnosis Focuses on teaching individuals or groups how to be independent on activities of daily living Involve individuals, their significant others, and with groups in nursing care provision Medical Diagnosis Focuses on teaching about how diseases and trauma are treated Mostly involved with individuals, sometimes with groups and families

Examples Nursing & Medical Diagnosis 1) Nursing Diagnosis Fear Altered Health maintenance Knowledge deficit Pain Altered tissue perfusion 2)Medical Diagnosis Myocardial infarction / Heart Attack

Examples Nursing & Medical Diagnosis… Nursing Diagnosis -Ineffective breathing pattern -Activity Intolerance -Acute pain -Body Image disturbance -Risk for altered body temperature Medical Diagnosis - Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease -Cerebrovascular accident -Appendectomy -Amputation -Strep throat

Components of nursing diagnosis 1) Diagnostic Label P-Problem Statement Q-Qualifier 2) Etiology E 3) Defining Characteristics S

Components of nursing diagnosis … Diagnostic Label Problem :- Refers to health problem or health state of an Individual , family, or community. Name of nursing diagnosis as listed in Taxonomy, expressed in a short, clear, & precise word, words or phrase. A taxonomy is a way of classifying or ordering things into categories; is a hierarchical classification scheme of main groups, subgroups, and items. Qualifier :- Used to give additional meaning to the nursing diagnosis.

Components of nursing diagnosis … Note to Write Diagnostic Label DO NOT use medical diagnosis Must be a problem the nurse and /or the client can change to do something about DO NOT relate the problem to unchangeable situation DO NOT confuse the etiology with the problem ( statement) Focus on the human response to the problem Avoid the use of one piece of assessment data as a nursing diagnosis. Example . Edema

Components of nursing diagnosis … Be specific DO NOT combine nursing diagnosis DO NOT relate one nursing diagnosis to another Nursing interventions should not be included in the nursing diagnosis Keep your language non judgmental DO NOT make assumptions or statements you can’t prove with assessment data Be sure your statement is legally advisable

Components of nursing diagnosis … Etiology Are any internal or external elements that have an effect on the person, family, or community. And contribute to the existence or maintenance of the person’s problem This is the related to, “R/T” portion of the diagnosis What caused the client to have the problem listed? At which will be affected by nursing intervention

Components of nursing diagnosis … Note to Write Etiology DO NOT use medical diagnosis Must be a problem the nurse and /or the client can change to do something about

Components of nursing diagnosis … Defining Characteristics-signs & symptoms These are the major and minor clinical cues that validate the present of an actual nursing diagnosis. Must have at least the major defining characteristics as listed in the taxonomy and minor characteristics will help support the nursing diagnosis.

Components of nursing diagnosis … The Two- part Statement Consists of two parts Problem statement or diagnostic label The diagnostic label is the name of the nursing diagnosis as listed in the NANDA. Examples: Stress urinary incontinence, Anxiety,etc. II. The etiology Is the related cause of contributor to the problem These two parts are linked by term related to, “R/T”.

Components of nursing diagnosis … Descriptive words Terms that may be added to clarify specific nursing diagnosis These descriptive terms are called qualifiers. Examples:-Acute, Chronic, Decreased, Deficient, Depleted, Disturbed, Dysfunctional, Enhanced, Excessive, Impaired, Increased, Ineffective, Intermittent, Potential for, and risk. These terms specify a degree of qualification for the identified nursing diagnosis and are placed before the problem statement.

Components of nursing diagnosis … The Three- Part Statement Consists of three parts. The first two components are the diagnostic label and etiology, and The third component consists of defining characteristics or collected data that are also known as signs and symptoms, Subjective and objective data, or clinical manifestations. The third part is joined to the first two components with the connecting phrase “ as evidenced by”, ( AEB).

Nursing diagnosis versus Collaborative Problems If such problems require physician –prescribed and nurse-prescribed action In case the nurse intervenes in collaboration with personnel of other disciplines. C ollaborative problems are complications from a disease, test, or treatment that nurses cannot treat independently. Nurses focus mainly on monitoring and preventing such problems. Alerts the nurse that the client is either experiencing or is at high risk to experience the problem.

Nursing diagnosis versus Collaborative Problems… The focus of nursing accountability for collaborative problems is three- folds. Detecting and reporting early signs and symptoms of potential complications Implementing Physician prescribed interventions; Initiating interventions within the nursing domain to manage the problem. e.g. Potential complications: paralytic ileus related to back surgery. Arrhythmia, stroke, congestive heart failure related to MI.

Types of Nursing Diagnosis Actual Nursing Diagnosis Describe a human response to a health problem that is being manifested. Written as three-part statements: diagnostic label, Related factors or etiology and defining characteristics. Example :- Acute pain R/T surgical trauma and inflammation AEB grimacing and verbal reports of pain.

Types of Nursing Diagnosis… Rule for writing a ctual nursing diagnosis Using the PRS /PES format (Problem, Related factors, and Signs and Symptoms).

Wellness-Nursing Diagnosis Is a diagnostic statement that describe the human response to levels of wellness in an individual, family or community that have a potential for enhancement to a higher state ( NANDA,2005). Wellness-nursing diagnosis is one part statement i.e. diagnostic label. Two items should be present: An increased desire for greater wellness & Effective level of function should be present

Types of Nursing Diagnosis… Example Readiness for enhanced spiritual well being. Readiness for enhanced self-esteem. Rule for writing wellness nursing diagnosis Statement will begin with “ potential for Enhanced or Readiness for enhanced. Readiness for enhanced Diagnostic label

Types of Nursing Diagnosis… 4. Possible nursing diagnosis Is made when not enough evidence supports the presence of the problem but The nurse thinks that is highly probable and wants to collect more information. Possible nursing diagnosis is a two part statement. i.e. diagnostic label and related factors (unknown). Example : Possible self-esteem disturbance R/T unknown etiology, Possible self-care deficit R/T IV in right hand, Possible impaired adjustment related to unknown etiology

Purpose of planning To facilitates communication between care givers To d irects care and documentation To provide a record that can later be used for evaluation and research

Types of Nursing Planning Initial planning : Comprehensive plan of care on admission assessment Ongoing planning : Continuous updating of the client’s plan of care. Discharge planning : Critical anticipation and planning for the client’s needs after discharge

Breakout Activities of planning? 5 min

Planning involves the following activities Setting priorities Setting goals G lobally written statement describing the intended change in the client’s behavior, response, or outcome Outcome identification Determining nursing interventions Recording the plan of care

Breakout How do you set priority? 5 min

Setting Priorities The first step to get organized To set priorities, look at the identified problems and ask some key questions: What problems need immediate attention ? What problems have simple solutions ? How many problems- list of all problems What problems must be done by nurse or referred ? What problems must be recorded on the plan of care?

Fundamental Principles of Setting Priorities (Maslow, 1943)

Priority 1 - Life threatening problems and those interfering with physiological needs . E.g. Problems with respiration, etc. Priority 2 - Problems interfering with safety and security e.g. fear Priority 3 - Problems interfering love & belonging e.g. Isolation Priority 4 - Problems interfering with self esteem . e.g. Inability to wash hair, perform normal activities. Priority 5 - Problems interfering with the ability to achieve personal goals. Fundamental Principles of Setting Priorities…

Planning: Goal Setting Goal is a broad term derived using the problem statement in the nursing diagnoses. It should indicate the identified health problem has been resolved , improved or prevented . Examples To reduce anxiety before undergoing surgery To maintain a patent airway To relive pain

Definition Is a detailed, specific statement that describes goal is achieved. Writing Outcome Measures Identifying outcomes that clearly describe the evidence that tells you the problems have been prevented, corrected, or controlled. e.g. of goal:- will demonstrate effective breathing pattern Outcome Measures:- clear lungs and practicing deep breathing and coughing every 2 hours. Planning: Outcome Identification

Short-term goals (STG) are those that can be met relatively quickly , often in less than a week L ong-term goals (LTG) are those that are to be achieved over a longer period of time , often weeks or months. LTG may also include goals that are ongoing e.g. of long term goal “ Tigist will dress herself every morning.” “Ato Daniel will maintain a fluid intake of 2000 ml a day.” Short and Long Term Outcomes

Short-Term Outcome Long-Term Outcome ““Fatuma will demonstrate how to hold her newborn infant by tomorrow ( 6/7).” “Fatuma will demonstrate how to dress, feed , and bathe her newborn infant by discharge (15/7).” 305 Examples of Long-Term and Short-Term Outcomes Priority_Goal_Outcome_Instruction “ Ato Hailu will turn and reposition himself from side to side every 2 hours. “ Ato Hailu will maintain good skin integrity while he is on bed rest.” “ Ato Sium will demonstrate how to change his colostomy bag within 2 days (by 7/7).” “ Ato Sium will demonstrate how to give complete colostomy care according to Hospital standards by discharge (by 7/21).” “Tekle will walk with crutches with assistance by 3 days after surgery (by 7/28).” “Tekle will walk unassisted with a crutch by discharge (by 8/10)/” 7/5/2023

Breakout Identify at least 3 nursing diagnoses Set realistic STO or LTO 5 min

Writing more than one outcome statement Sometimes you may decide to write more than one outcome for a problem. T he outcomes probably relate to the causes, or related factors, of the problem rather than to the problem itself only. However, make sure at least one of the outcomes demonstrates resolution , improvement , control or prevention of the nursing diagnosis.

Writing more than one outcome statement… Example Nursing Diagnosis : Overweight ( wt 76kg, ht 1.5m) related to poor eating habits and minimal physical activity AEB BMI of 28kg/m 2 . Outcome #1 : Abera will verbalize his feelings about changing eating habits, taking more vegetables and fruits. Outcome # 2: Abera will attend daily exercise classes. Outcome #3: Abera will lose 1 Kg per week beginning 26/01/2017 until he weighs between 60 and 70 Kg.

Look at first clause of the nursing diagnoses itself or problem statement (the word or words before “related to”) Example- High risk for impaired skin integrity related to immobility. Now restate the first clause in a statement that describes improvement, control, or absence of the problem Example- The person will demonstrate no signs of skin irritation or breakdown by discharge Restate the related factor and evidence that they are controlled , prevented, improved, or absent Example: The patient will use safety and comfort devises (pillow, cotton ring, air ring) over bony prominence areas as of tomorrow. Steps in identifying Outcomes from Nursing Diagnoses

Nursing Diagnosis Corresponding Client Outcome Imbalanced nutrition : Less than Body requirements The client will demonstrate inclusion of vegetables and fruits in lunch and dinner to increase appetite The client will record of eating balanced meals with few snacks every day . Clients Outcomes Derived from Nursing Diagnoses Ineffective Individual Coping The client will demonstrate and relate effective coping The client will self report coping better and The client will ability to demonstrate good problem solving. Constipation The client will demonstrate normal bowel function The client will have a normal stool every 1-2 per day by statements of feeling as though bowels are moving well.

Outcomes that are clear and specific address: Who is to do it? What is to be done? How they are to do it? & How well they are to do it? Where they are to do it? When they are to do it? Making Outcomes Clear and Specific

Subject : the person expected to achieve the goal? Verb : actions the person take to achieve the goal? Choosing verbs that measure progress will avoid ambiguity and focuses on the behavior that will measure progress. Use measurable verbs in order to be specific : Verbs like -identify, describe, perform, relate, state, list, verbalize, hold, demonstrate, etc. Don’t use Non Measurable Verbs : include -know, understand, appreciate, think, accept, and feel . Components of the outcome Identification

Components of the outcome Identification… Condition : circumstances under which the person perform the actions? Criteria : how well is the person to perform the actions? Specific Time : when the person expected to perform the actions? Example: Ato Hailu will walk with a crutch at least to the end of the hall and back by Friday (Feb. 5, 2018) Subject: Ato Hailu Verb : will walk Condition: with a crutch Criteria: at least to the end of the hall and back Specific time- by Feb 5, 2018

During determining client centered outcomes Be realistic in establishing goals. S et goals mutually with the client and others involved in his/her health care. E stablish both short and long term goals Be sure that the outcomes describe a client behavior or action Follow the rules for writing outcome statements. Use measurable, observable verbs to describe actions Components of the outcome Identification…

Planning: Nursing intervention Definition A nursing intervention is an action planned by a nurse that helps the client to achieve the results specified by the goals and expected outcome. Identify as many nursing interventions as possible so that if one proves to be unsuitable, others are readily available. Prioritize interventions according to the order in which they will be implemented .

Planning: Nursing intervention… It could be carried out through: Helping/assisting Teaching Counseling Consulting & Determining problem specific Interventions. Priority_Goal_Outcome_Instruction

Planning: Nursing intervention… Nursing Interventions are activities performed by the nurse to: Monitor health status Prevent, resolve, or control a problem Assist with ADL (bathing and so forth) Promote optimum health and independence.

Planning : Nursing intervention… , Types 1. Independent interventions I nterventions that require no supervision or directions from others E.g. Demonstrating client about insulin self-injection. This intervention do not require any physicians order 2. Interdependent interventions Are type of interventions that are implemented in a collaborative manner by the nurse with other health care professionals

e.g. Nursing interventions in operation theatre with other health care team 3. Dependent interventions A re based on the interaction or written orders by other health care provider e.g. Administering a medication, preparing a client for different procedure Planning : Nursing intervention …, Types…

Nursing Instructions/Orders Definition A nursing order is a statement written by the nurse that is within the realm of nursing practice to plan and initiate. These statements specify direction and individualize the client’s plan of care.

Elements of nursing order/instruction Date The date on which the order is written. This information is updated to reflect review and revision. Action Verb Directs the nurses’ action. Example : Explain, demonstrate, auscultate

Detailed description Precisely clarifies what the nurse’s action will be. This phrase explains what, when, where, and how . Time frame Describes when, how often, and how long the nursing order is to be performed. Signature Indicates the nurse who writes the order. This element implies legal and ethical accountability Elements of nursing order/instruction…

Making Nursing Instructions/Actions Specific To make it specific and clear, include the following: Date : The date the order was written Verb : Action to be performed Subject : Who is to do it Descriptive phrase :: How, when, where, how often, how long Signature : Whoever wrote the order should sign it. e.g . 4/29/2012 Assist Guta to sit on the side of the bed for 10 minutes tid. Tekle G. RN

Nursing actions vs nursing instructions Nursing Action Nursing instructions Ambulate patient Ambulate patient the length of the hall using the walker 3 times a day Monitor ability to use walker appropriately and record response daily on flow sheet. Provide periods of uninterrupted rest Do not wake up the patient from midnight to 7 am Allow flow to rest from 1 pm to 3 pm (no visitors) Record the patient’s perception of hours slept Manage airway clearance Elevate head of bed. Avoid use of pillow under head, as indicated.  Encourage coughing/deep-breathing exercises and frequent position changes.  Suction (if necessary) with extreme care, maintaining sterile technique. 

Consider the following when writing nursing instructions What to look for (assessing, or seeing) What to do What to teach or counsel What to record Example : High risk for ineffective airway clearance related to history of smoking and incision pain.

Nursing instructions to be carried in caring for such a patient are: Put the patient in upright sitting position Check the respiration rate every hour A uscultate lungs every 4 hours for secretions Assist the person to perform coughing and deep breathing exercises with pillow and hand over incision area every 4 hours. Reinforce the importance of coughing and deep breathing. Record lung sounds and sputum production once a shift
