Nursing Diagnosis01:22

Nursing Diagnosis

4.6K
Following assessment, a nursing diagnosis is the next step in the nursing process. It begins after the nurse has collected and recorded the patient data. The purpose of diagnosing is to identify how the client responds to actual or potential health processes, identify factors that bestow or that cause health problems, the etiologies, and identify resources or strengths the individual, group, or community can draw on to prevent or resolve problems.
The nursing diagnosis focuses on evidence-based...

Formulating and Validating Nursing Diagnosis I

4.4K
A nursing diagnosis is written when the nurse recognizes a cluster of essential patient data indicating health problems treated with independent nursing interventions. The standardized terminologies of a nursing diagnosis help nurses identify and treat patients' problems. Every electronic health record that uses nursing diagnosis must employ standard diagnostic terminology. Developing an efficient, individualized care plan begins with accurate nursing diagnoses.
There are thirteen domains...

Formulating and Validating Nursing Diagnosis II

4.3K
Nursing diagnoses represent a problem validated by major defining characteristics. There are four categories of nursing diagnoses: problem-focused, risk, health promotion or wellness, and syndrome. The anatomy of a nursing diagnosis includes three components: problem statement or diagnostic label, defining characteristics, and related factors.
Risk nursing diagnoses represent clinical judgments of an individual, family, or community more vulnerable to developing the health problem than others...

Skin Cancer01:30

Skin Cancer

6.6K
Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in...

Skin Diseases and Disorders

6.3K
Skin is the first line of defense and encounters a variety of microbes. Some pathogenic strains are often the cause of a broad range of infections of the skin and other body systems. These conditions can affect people of all ages and may have different causes, including genetic factors, infections, autoimmune reactions, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices.
Gram-positive Staphylococcus spp. and Streptococcus spp. are responsible for many of the most common skin infections. However, many...

The Scientific Method in Nursing Process01:18

The Scientific Method in Nursing Process

19.4K
The scientific method provides the foundation for any research. It is the most reliable and objective of all forms of gaining knowledge and guides in applying research-based evidence in practice and conducting future research.
When using research findings to change practice, one must understand the process used to guide a study. The scientific method is a systematic, step-by-step process that supports the data's validity, reliability, and generalizability. As a result, findings can be...

    Area of Science:

    • Internal Medicine
    • Clinical Case Study
    • Symptomatology

    Background:

    • A 58-year-old female patient presented with a constellation of non-specific symptoms.
    • The patient reported a 2-week history of generalized pruritus (itching).
    • Associated symptoms included fatigue, dizziness, and decreased appetite.

    Observation:

    • A mild upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) was noted one week prior to symptom onset.
    • The pruritus was generalized, affecting the entire body.
    • Systemic symptoms suggest a potential underlying condition beyond a simple URTI.

    Findings:

    • The patient's symptoms of generalized pruritus, fatigue, dizziness, and appetite loss warrant further investigation.
    • The temporal relationship between the URTI and the onset of symptoms is a key clinical observation.
    • Differential diagnosis should consider various etiologies, including post-infectious syndromes or other systemic diseases.

    Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of considering systemic manifestations following common infections.
    • Further diagnostic workup is crucial to determine the exact cause of the patient's symptoms.
    • Understanding such presentations can improve diagnostic accuracy and patient management in primary care settings.
