Nursing Diagnoses # 1 Ineffective Airway Clearance related to the presence of tracheobronchial secretions as evidence by an increased respiratory rate, fever, frothy sputum production, and decreased lung sounds. Goals: Breath sounds will no longer be diminished Airway will remain patent CXR will reveal no pleural effusion Patient will produce normal sputum
Ineffective Airway Clearance Interventions Positioning Turning Suction Humidification
Nursing Diagnoses # 2 Ineffective Breathing Pattern related to fatigue as evidence by rapid, shallow respirations, shortness of breath and the need for ventilatory support. Goals: Patient’s respiratory rate will remain below 25 Patient will achieve maximum lung expansion and adequate ventilation Patient’s oxygen stat will remain above 90%
Ineffective Breathing Pattern Interventions Positioning Suction Medication Turning
Nursing Diagnoses # 3 Dysfunctional Ventilatory Weaning Response related to diminished ventilator support as evidence by breathing dicomfort, increased need for oxygen, restlessness, increase in respiratory rate, and shallow respirations. Goals: Patient’s respiratory rate will remain below 25 Patient’s mental status will remain stable Patient will express comfort during weaning Patient’s oxygen level will remain above 90%
Dysfunctional Ventilatory Weaning Response Interventions Positioning Education T-piece Vitals
Nursing Diagnoses Risk for Infection related to the aspiration of ventilator condensation as evidence by diminished lung sounds, increased respiratory rate, increased frothy sputum production and fever. Goals: Patient’s RR will remain less than 25 Sputum production will be clear and minimal Patient’s temp will remain 100
