  • X -Ray of abdomen done on 9/13 at outside source

  • Distension: abdomen appear to be distended and have areas of tenderness to touch

  • Bowel Sounds: diminished sounds indicating possible ileus or obstruction.

  • Patient complains of feeling bloated/puffy

ABG (Arterial Blood Gas):

Pulmonary Function Tests:



Actual Nursing Diagnosis/Problem: anxiety related to prolonged hospital stay

Supporting Data

Patient states wanting to get out the hospital

Patient states she is tired of laying in bed all day

Patient states feeling overwhelm due to hospital staff constantly come in and out of room

Patient complains of not getting sufficient rest due to staff coming in for labs and other early morning tests

Patient emphasize on her freedom/independence outside the hospital and being able to prepare her own meals


I don’t know how this fits


NUR 105 Clinical Concept Map (Clinical Worksheet page 2)


Utilize the nursing diagnoses on page 1 that you developed. Identify appropriate nursing interventions. This is your basis of your homework.

Actual Nursing Diagnosis/Problem: Impaired gas exchange related to abdominal distension related to pressure on the diaphragm secondary to small bowel obstruction with perforation

Goal: my patient will maintain an SpO2 level of 92% or higher while at rest, and a respiratory rate of 12-20 demonstrating effective gas exchange while in my care

All Nursing Interventions:1. Administer oxygen therapy as ordered.

2. Elevate the head of the bed to a 30–45-degree angle

3. Teach and encourage the patient to perform deep breathing and coughing exercises

4. Promote Activity as Tolerated

5. Consult with a dietitian to assess nutritional needs and modify diet as necessary.

6. Administer Medications as Ordered

7. Educate Patient and Family

8. Administer IV Fluids and Electrolytes

9. Insert Nasogastric (NG) Tube

10. Collaborate with the surgical team and prepare the patient for potential surgery.

11. Regularly check complete blood count (CBC), electrolytes, WBC and possibly cultures if infection is suspected

12. Assess respiratory rate, depth, and oxygen saturation frequently

13. Provide Pain Management

14. Monitor Vital Signs Closely

15. Perform frequent abdominal assessments, checking for distention, tenderness, and signs of peritonitis (e.g.,rebound tenderness).

Actual Nursing Diagnosis/Problem: constipation r/t decreased peristalsis r/t low fiber intake 2nd small bowel obstruction with perforation

Goal: Patient will report soft, formed stool during bowel movements while in my care

All Nursing Intervention: 1. Perform manual disimpaction

2. Administer laxatives or stool softeners as prescribed

3. Advise patients to take the recommended dose of dietary fiber of at least 20 to 30 g daily. Encourage intake of prune juice

4. Promote increased fluid intake

5. Avoid caffeine and alcohol

6. Encourage daily exercise and physical activities

7. Institute a toilet schedule or bowel training as appropriate.

8. Encourage the patient to have an elimination diary

9. Apply a gentle abdominal massage

10. Educate on Fiber Intake

11. Advise taking probiotics

12. Administer enema (phosphate enema, saline, tap water, and soap sud enema) if indicated

13. provide comfort measures

14.

Pathophysiology of Primary Medical/Surgical Diagnosis

(Write on a separate page)


Actual Nursing Diagnosis/Problem: anxiety related to prolonged hospital stay

Goal: My patient will be free of prolonged hospital stay anxiety while in my care

All Nursing Intervention:1. Assess Anxiety Levels

2. Offer clear explanations about procedures, treatments, and what to expect during the hospital stay to reduce uncertainty

3. Encourage Expression of Feelings

4. Teach Relaxation Techniques

5. Create a Calm Environment

6. Establish a daily schedule for activities, meals, and care to provide structure and predictability.

7. Involve Family and Friends

8.Provide activities such as books, puzzles, or music to divert attention away from anxiety-provoking thoughts.

9. Encourage Physical Activity

10. Provide Cultural and Spiritual Support

11. Teach mindfulness techniques to help the patient stay present and reduce overwhelming thoughts about the future

12. Use Therapeutic Communication

13. Involve the patient in discharge planning to give them a sense of control and preparedness for their transition back home.

14. Build a trusting relationship by actively listening and showing empathy to help the patient feel understood and supported.


NUR 105 Clinical Concept Map

Utilize the information on page 1 and 2 to fill in information below. Explain why/how the nursing intervention helps patient achieve the goal (Scientific rational) with citation. Insert and document patient’s actual response to the intervention and evaluate and summarize patient’s outcome.

Actual Nursing Diagnosis/Problem: Nursing Diagnosis/Problem: Impaired gas exchange related to abdominal distension related to pressure on the diaphragm secondary to small bowel obstruction with perforation

Predicted Patient Behavioral Outcome (Goal): : my patient will maintain an SpO2 level of 92% or higher while at rest, and a respiratory rate of 12-20 demonstrating effective gas exchange while in my care

Nursing Interventions: Administer oxygen therapy as ordered.

Scientific Rationale: Supplemental oxygen can improve oxygenation levels, compensating for impaired gas exchange due to abdominal distension and diaphragm pressure. An oxygen saturation of <90% (normal: 95% to 100%) or a partial pressure of oxygen of <80 (normal: 80 to 100) indicates significant oxygenation problems.

Actual patient response/evaluation:
