Mr. Kokoris is a 72-year-old mala who presented to North Shore
Medical Center with complains of worsening chest pain 3 days prior to arrival. The pain was reported as 10 in a scale of 0-10 and radiate on left
arm, neck, right arm, back, and upper abdomen. Patient also report mild
nauseas and diaphoresis. Patient stated he was sent to his PCP due to his symptoms. Further work up progress. Cardiology following
Medical History
Patient has a history of Hypertension, obesity and hyperlipidemia.
“Heart failure often develops after other conditions have damaged or weakened your heart, conditions like obesity and high lipids. However,
the heart doesn't need to be weakened to cause heart failure. It can also
occur if the heart becomes too stiff. In heart failure, the main pumping chambers of your heart (the ventricles) may become stiff and not fill
properly between beats. In some cases of heart failure, your heart muscle
may become damaged and weakened, and the ventricles stretch (dilate) to the point that the heart can't pump blood efficiently throughout your
body. Over time, the heart can no longer keep up with the normal
demands placed on it to pump blood to the rest of your body.” (Mayo clinic, 2018)
The pathophysiology of hypertension is an area which seek to explain
how work and the causes of hypertension, which is a chronic disease characterized by elevation of blood pressure. Hypertension can be
classified by cause as either essential (also known as primary or idiopathic) or secondary. About 90–95% of hypertension is essential
hypertension. (ncbi.com, 2001)
Obesity it is a condition that increases the risk of other diseases and
health problems, like heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure and
some cancer according Mayo Clinic. (Mayo Clinic, 2019)
“Hyperlipidemia or high cholesterol level can run in families. People who inherit the condition can get very high cholesterol, along with
triglycerides and other fats, those can build up inside your arteries. This
makes the blood vessels narrower and makes it more difficult for blood to get through. Your blood pressure could go up”. And also cause
arteriosclerosis
The buildup can also cause a blood clot to form. If a blood clot breaks off and travels to your heart, it causes a heart attack. If it goes to your
brain, it can cause a stroke. (Mayo Clinic, 2019)
Surgical History
Patient denies any surgical history.
Social History
Patient denies any use of alcohol, tobacco or illicit drugs.
Chief Complaint
Patient complains of chest pain and some
shortness of breath.

Erickson’s Developmental Stage Related to pt. & Cite
References (1)
Erikson’s developmental stage: Ego-Integrity V.S.
Despair
Late adulthood
Virtues: Wisdom
Important event: During this stage of development the patient contemplates their accomplishments and are able to develop integrity if they see they are
leading a successful life. If they do not see
themselves leading a successful life they become dissatisfied with life and develop despair, which
leads them to depression and hopeless. (McLeod,
2018).
Outcome/Goal #2
Patient will decreased
episodes of dyspnea and angina by end of
the shift. Along with
sweating
PC Interventions
Encourage frequent position changes every 2 hours.
Provide frequent skin care
Use pulse oximetry to monitor oxygen saturation and
pulse rate.
Promote active/passive ROM exercises.
Priority nursing diagnosis #1
Decreased Cardiac Output related to cardiac muscle
disease, rhythm, and
electrical conduction as evidence by
increased heart rate.

Neurological (5)
The patient was awake,
alert, and oriented to person, place and time.
There were no obvious
neurologic abnormalities. Gait
normal.
Respiratory (7)
Lung sounds were
diminished at bases bilaterally. No ralles,
rhonchi or wheezes
were noted.
Priority nursing diagnosis #2
Inadequate tissue perfusion related to
alterations in rate,
rhythm, electrical conduction as
evidenced by chest
pain, cool and
diaphoresis skin.
Outcome/Goal #1
Patient will have normal
cardia cardiac output as
evidenced by blood pressure and pulse rate and rhythm by
the end of the shift.
Interventions # 2
Elevate head of bed and encourage frequent position
changes.
