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
