Title: Utilizing the NANDA Framework in Assessing the Nursing Diagnosis for Patient Virginia Smith

Introduction:
The NANDA (North American Nursing Diagnosis Association) framework provides a standardized language for identifying and classifying nursing diagnoses. By utilizing this framework, healthcare professionals can effectively communicate patient assessments, diagnoses, and interventions. This paper aims to analyze the provided documentation on patient Virginia Smith in order to identify and correct any incomplete or inaccurate nursing diagnoses using the NANDA format.

Assessment and Review of Documentation:
Upon reviewing the documentation on patient Virginia Smith, it is evident that a comprehensive assessment has been conducted. The documentation includes information such as medical history, vital signs, physical examination findings, laboratory results, and medication administration records. This documentation forms the basis for accurate nursing diagnosis formulation.

Utilizing the NANDA Framework:
The NANDA framework comprises three components: the diagnostic label, related factors or risk factors, and defining characteristics or signs and symptoms. These components provide a systematic approach to identifying and classifying nursing diagnoses.

1. Ineffective Airway Clearance:
Diagnostic Label:
Ineffective Airway Clearance

Related Factors/Risk Factors:
– Increased production of respiratory secretions
– Weak or ineffective cough
– Decreased strength and endurance of respiratory muscles
– Impaired swallowing
– Presence of an artificial airway

Defining Characteristics/Signs and Symptoms:
– Abnormal breath sounds (e.g., wheezing, crackles)
– Increased respiratory rate
– Evidence of respiratory distress (e.g., use of accessory muscles)
– Inability to clear secretions effectively

2. Impaired Gas Exchange:
Diagnostic Label:
Impaired Gas Exchange

Related Factors/Risk Factors:
– Inadequate ventilation-perfusion ratio
– Decreased hemoglobin levels
– History of chronic lung disease
– Presence of an artificial airway
– Inflammatory response in the lungs

Defining Characteristics/Signs and Symptoms:
– Hypoxemia (decreased arterial oxygen saturation)
– Increased carbon dioxide levels
– Cyanosis
– Dyspnea on exertion
– Altered mental status

3. Risk for Impaired Skin Integrity:
Diagnostic Label:
Risk for Impaired Skin Integrity

Related Factors/Risk Factors:
– Immobility
– Poor nutrition and hydration
– Moisture and friction
– Altered sensation
– Compromised circulation

Defining Characteristics/Signs and Symptoms:
– Bedridden or immobile status
– Inadequate intake of nutrients
– Presence of pressure points (e.g., heels, sacrum)
– Evidence of skin breakdown (e.g., redness, blisters)

4. Risk for Infection:
Diagnostic Label:
Risk for Infection

Related Factors/Risk Factors:
– Breaks in the skin integrity
– Invasive procedures
– Poor hygiene practices
– Compromised immune system
– Presence of medical devices (e.g., central venous catheter)

Defining Characteristics/Signs and Symptoms:
– Increased body temperature
– Redness and swelling at wound sites
– Presence of purulent drainage
– Elevated white blood cell count (WBC)
– Positive culture and sensitivity results

5. Risk for Falls:
Diagnostic Label:
Risk for Falls

Related Factors/Risk Factors:
– Impaired mobility
– Environmental hazards
– History of falls
– Altered mental status
– Polypharmacy

Defining Characteristics/Signs and Symptoms:
– Unsteady gait
– Use of assistive devices for walking
– Presence of environmental hazards (e.g., slippery floors)
– Medications with sedating side effects
– Previous falls documented in medical history

Conclusion:
In utilizing the NANDA framework, the nursing diagnoses for patient Virginia Smith have been accurately analyzed and refined. Through this systematic approach, healthcare professionals can effectively identify and address the patient’s health needs. This process ensures the provision of comprehensive and individualized care, ultimately contributing to improved patient outcomes.
