    Associated Nursing diagnostic label:

    Patient is worried about his girlfriend and friends seeing him in a nursing home, and amongst a group of old people

    Patient Name: R.T.

    Situation: Patient is in pain after a bike

    accident.

    Priority Nursing Diagnostic Statement: Pain & anxiety.

    Diagnostic Label: Acute Pain

    Related to: Injury from recent bike crash

    Evidence: – Patient has closed head injury, fractures on right femur, tibia and radius and wearing brace on fractured leg and fiberglass cast on fractured arm.

    Goal: Assess pain level and bring it down to a level 2 in the next 2 hours.

     

    2-3 SMART outcomes:

    • Promote healing on fractures.
    • Arrange therapy to help patient get back to walking on both legs.
    • Advice patient to stay off foot to help healing.

    In your own words, based on the data cues, what is the most important (priority) problem?

     

    The most important priority is reducing the pain level and helping patient get back to using both legs in walking.

    List and prioritize all Nursing Diagnostic Statements (3 part or 2 part) based on data clusters above (at least 3):

     

    1.Low self –perception related to being on a wheel-chair and amongst old people.

     

    2.Inability to cope with pain level due to injuries.

     

    3.Anxiety related to fear of rejection by loved ones.

    Step 3: Type in the Data Clusters. Identify the Gordon’s Pattern and functionality; Analyze the data cluster to determine the problem. Identify the appropriate Nursing Diagnostic Label (nursing diagnosis). Complete the remaining sections. Include arrows showing how each data cluster/problem influences others on the care map. . Add, Expand, or Rearrange the boxes as needed. Concept Map Discussion Essay
