Identify relevant and important information from different sources (medical records, signs and symptoms, and vital signs).
What does the patient look like? What are the patient’s complaints? Does the patient have anything in their medical history that would indicate this could be a problem? What are the patient’s vital signs?
What are the patient’s cues that support the diagnosis? List three
Organize and connect the recognized cues to the client’s clinical presentation.
Which of these supporting cues is most concerning? List two
What do you want to happen if the patient drinks fluids? What do you want to happen if you give the patient antibiotics?
You must have four solutions. Identify expected solutions and use the hypotheses to define a set of interventions for the expected solutions.
Solutions for this section
This section is for you to evaluate your desired solution within the clinical shift. You should have four evaluations: one for each desired solution.
Example: Despite giving the patient acetaminophen for a fever, the patient continued to have a low-grade fever (100.1 degrees) for the entire clinical shift.
What was the admitting diagnosis?
Go to your book, look up the disease process, and write down the pathophysiology of the disease process.
What are the risk factors for this disease process? What causes this disease process?
Disease process
Pathophysiology
Risk Factors
Evaluate and prioritize hypotheses. Utilize words such as, urgency, likelihood, risk, difficulty, time, and constraints.
You want to write what happen if.... Forecasting or predicting response.
List three hypotheses.
List one action for each solution. List the most important action of each solution.
Based on the solutions identified, what interventions (solutions) would you implement to address what is happening to the patient?
