Nursing Care Plan for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) with 10 Nursing Diagnosis

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a chronic lung disease is progressive, meaning the disease lasts a lifetime and is slowly deteriorating from year to year. In the course of this disease there are phases of acute exacerbation. Various factors play a role in the course of the disease, among other risk factors are factors that cause or exacerbate illnesses such as smoking, air pollution, environmental pollution, infection, genetic and weather changes.

The degree of airway obtruksi happened, and identification of components that allow for reversibility. Stage of the disease outside the lung and other diseases such as chronic sinusitis and pharyngitis. That ultimately these factors make further deterioration occurs sooner. To perform the management of COPD should consider these factors, so that the treatment of COPD for the better.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a broad classification of disorders that includes chronic bronchitis, bronchiectasis, emphysema and asthma, which is an irreversible condition associated with dyspnea on exertion and decreased air flow in and out of the lungs.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a lung disorder characterized by impaired lung function in the form of prolonged expiratory period caused by the narrowing of the airways and not much changed in the period of observation for some time.

Signs and symptoms will lead to two basic types:

  • Have a dominant direction of the clinical picture of chronic bronchitis (blue bloater).
  • Have a clinical picture towards emphysema (pink puffers).
Signs and symptoms are as follows:
  • body weakness
  • cough
  • shortness of breath
  • Shortness of breath on exertion and breath sounds
  • wheezing
  • prolonged expiratory
  • form the barrel chest (Barrel Chest) in advanced disease
  • the use of accessory muscles
  • decreased breath sounds
  • sometimes found paradoxical breathing
  • leg edema, ascites and clubbing

10 List of Nanda Nursing Diagnosis for COPD

1. Ineffective airway clearance related to: bronchoconstriction, increased sputum production, ineffective cough, fatigue / lack of energy, bronchopulmonary infection.
2. Ineffective breathing pattern related to: shortness of breath, mucus, bronchoconstriction, airway irritants.
3. Impaired gas exchange related to: ventilation perfusion inequality.

4. Activity intolerance related to: imbalance between oxygen supply with demand.
5. Imbalanced Nutrition: less than body requirements related to: anorexia.
6. Disturbed sleep pattern related to: discomfort, sleeping position.
7. Bathing / Hygiene Self-care deficit related to: fatigue secondary to increased respiratory effort and ventilation and oxygenation insufficiency.
8. Anxiety related to: threat to self-concept, threat of death, purposes that are not being met.
9. Ineffective individual coping related to: lack of socialization, anxiety, depression, low activity levels and an inability to work.
 10. Deficient Knowledge related to: lack of information, do not know the source of information.

Appendectomy - Nursing Care Plan for Preoperative and Postoperative

Definition of Appendicitis Appendicitis is an inflammation that often occurs in the appendix which is a serious case of abdominal surgery are the most common. Appendectomy An appendectomy is the surgical removal of the vermiform appendix. This procedure is normally performed as an emergency procedure, when the patient is suffering from acute appendicitis. In the absence of surgical facilities, intravenous antibiotics are used to delay or avoid the onset of sepsis; it is now recognized that many cases will resolve when treated perioperatively. In some cases the appendicitis resolves completely; more often, an inflammatory mass forms around the appendix, causing transruptural flotation. This is a relative contraindication to surgery. Etiology of Appendicitis Appendicitis is a bacterial infection caused by obstruction or blockage due to: Hyperplasia of lymphoid follicles Fecalith presence in the lumen of the appendix Appendix tumor The presence of foreign objects suc

NCP for Hallucinations - Assessment and Nursing Diagnosis

  Hallucinations Definition Perception Perception is the process of receiving stimuli until the stimuli are realized and understood by the senses or sensations: the process of receiving stimuli. So perceptual disorders are human inability to distinguish between stimuli arising from internal sources such as thoughts, feelings, somatic sensations with external impulses and stimuli. Hallucinations Hallucinations are one of the perceptual disorders, where there is a sensory experience in the absence of sensory stimulation (false sensory perception). According to Cook and Fotaine (1987), hallucinations are sensory perceptions of an object, image and thought that often occur in the absence of external stimuli which can include all sensory systems (hearing, seeing, smelling, touching or tasting), while according to Wilson (1983) ), hallucinations are disturbances of absorption/perception of the five senses without any external stimulation that can occur in the sensory system wh

NCP - Nursing Assessment for Burns (Combustion)

Burns are a global public health problem. This is due to the high rate of burn mortality and morbidity, especially in low- and middle-income countries, where more than 95% of the incidence of burns causes death (mortality). However, death is not the only consequence of burns. Many burn patients eventually experience disability (morbidity). This often creates a stigma against community rejection. (Ziaeian, Boback and Gregg C. Fonarow. (2016).) Burns (combustio) are tissue loss caused by contact with heat sources such as water, fire, chemicals, electricity, and radiation. Burns will cause not only skin damage, but also affect the entire body system (Brunner & Suddarth, 2014) Burns are a form of tissue damage and or loss caused by contact with sources that have very high temperatures (eg fire, hot water, chemicals, electricity, and radiation) or very low temperatures. Upon contact with a heat source (or other cause). A chemical reaction takes place that drains energy fro
