  • CHOLECISTITYS



    A. Definition
        Cholecystitis is inflammation of the gallbladder is an acute inflammatory gallbladder wall with upper right abdominal pain, tenderness and heatbody. Are two classifications namely acute and chronic ( Brooker , 2001). 
    Acute cholecystitis is inflammation of the gallbladder wall, usually is the result of the presence of gallstones in the cystic duct, which issudden attack causing tremendous pain.
     Chronic cholecystitis is a chronic inflammation of the gallbladder wall, which is characterized by recurrent attacks of abdominal pain and severe sharp. 
    Cholesistektomy is the surgical removal of the gall bladder (usually forrelief of gallstone pain).

    B. Etiology 
        Approximately 95 % of patients with acute gallbladder inflammation, have gallstones. Sometimes a bacterial infection causes inflammation. Acute cholecystitis without stones is a serious illness and tendarise after the occurrence of :
    -injury
    -surgery
    -burn
    -sepsis ( infection that spreads throughout the body
     -severe diseases ( especially people who receive food throughinfusion in the long term ). 
    Before secsara suddenly felt a tremendous pain in the abdomenabove, patients usually do not show signs of gallbladder disease. Chronic cholecystitis caused by recurrent attacks of acute cholecystitis, that causes thickening of the gallbladder wall and shrinkageempedu. On bladder finally gallbladder bile is not able to accommodate. The disease is more common in women and increase the number of eventsat the age above 40 years. Risk factor is a history of chronic cholecystitisprevious acute cholecystitis.

    C. Pathophysiology
        The gall bladder has a function as a place to store bile andconcentrate the bile fluid in it by way of absorbing water andelectrolyte. Bile is a liquid produced by the cell electrolyteliver. In normal individuals, bile flows into the gallbladder at the time of Oddi valve closed. In the gallbladder, bile is concentrated by absorb water. Degrees shown by the increase in concentration solids. Stasis of bile in the gallbladder may lead to progressive supersaturation and precipitation changes in the chemical composition of these elements. Metabolic changes caused by changes in the composition of bile, stasisbile, can cause infection of the gallbladder. 

    D. Symptom 
        The onset of symptoms can be triggered by eating fatty foods. 
     Symptoms can include : 
    - Early signs of inflammation of the gallbladder is usually a pain in the right abdomen top.
    - Pain is intensified when the patient breathe deeply and often spread to right shoulder 
    - Usually there is nausea and vomiting 
    - Abdominal tenderness 
    - In a few hours , the abdominal muscles become stiff right hand .
    - At first, mild fever, which is the longer tends to rise .
    - The attack reduced pain within 2-3 days and then disappear within 1 week .
    - Chronic digestive disorders
    - Abdominal pain is not clear ( vague )
    - Belching .  

    E. Complication 
        High fever, chills, increased leukocyte count and cessation of movement intestine ( ileus ) may indicate the occurrence of abscesses, gangrene or perforation of the bladder bile. Attack with jaundice ( jaundice ) or backflow of bile into in the liver showed that the bile duct was blocked partially by stone bile or by inflammation. If blood tests show elevated levels of the enzyme amylase, may there has been inflammation of the pancreas ( pancreatitis ) caused by blockage bile duct stones in the pancreas ( pancreatic duct ). 

    F. Investigations 
    - CT scan of the abdomen
    - Oral Kolesistogram
    - Abdominal ultrasound .
    - Blood tests ( looking for elevated white blood cells)

    G. Medical Management 
    - The usual treatment is surgery . 
    - Cholecystectomy surgery can be done through the abdomen or throughlaparoscopy . 
    - Patients who have a high surgical risk due to other medical conditions, recommended for low-fat diet and lose weight. 
    - Can be given antacids and anticholinergic drugs. 

    H. Nursing Management
         -Assessment      Assessment is the first step in the process and basic nursing thorough ( Boedihartono , 1994). 
          Post operative patient assessment ( Doenges , 1999) are included: 
              1 ) . Circulation Symptoms : a history of heart problems, GJK, pulmonary edema, vascular disease peripheral or vascular stasis ( increased risk of formation thrombus ). 
              2 ) . ego integrity Symptoms : feelings of anxiety , fear , anger , apathy ; stress factor multiple , such as financial , relationship , lifestyle .Mark : can not break , increasing tension / sensitive excitatory ;sympathetic stimulation . 
              3 ) . Food / fluid Symptoms : pancreatic insufficiency / DM , ( predisposition to hypoglycemia /ketoacidosis ), malnutrition ( including obesity ) ; mucous membranedry ( restriction intake / preoperative fasting period
              4 ) . breathing Symptoms : infection , chronic conditions / cough , smoking . 
              5 ) . security Symptoms : allergic / sensitive to medications , foods , plasters , and solutions ; Immune deficiency ( risk of systemic infection and delay shealing ) ; emergence of cancer / latest cancer therapies ; History family of malignant hyperthermia reaction / anesthesia ; Historyhepatic disease ( effect of detoxification of drugs and canchange coagulation ) ; history of blood transfusion / transfusion reactions .Signs : infection exhausting process ; fever.
              6 ) . Counseling / Learning Symptoms : anticoagulation , steroids , antibiotics , antihypertensives ,cardiotonic glokosid , antidisritmia , bronchodilator , diuretic ,decongestants , analgesics , anti-inflammatory , anticonvulsant or tranquilizers and also the-counter medicines or drugs recreational. Alcohol use ( risk of kidney damage ,affecting coagulation and anesthesia options , and also potential for postoperative withdrawal ) . 

    I. Nursing Diagnoses
       that appear in patients post Operative include :  
          1. Breathing pattern , ineffective related to neuromuscular , imbalanceperceptual / cognitive , increased lung expansion , tracheobronchial obstruction . 
          2. Changes in thought processes associated with chemical changes such as the use of pharmaceutical drugs , hypoxia ; limited therapeutic environment for example excessive sensory stimuli ; ​​physiological stress.
          3. Fluid volume deficiency , associated with a high risk of restrictions oral fluid intake , loss of body fluids is not normal , blood vessel integrity expenditures .4 . Acute pain associated with disorders of the skin , tissue and integrittas muscle , trauma muskuloskletal , appearance and hose lines ( Doenges , 1999) . 

    J. Intervention and Implementation
        Intervention is planning nursing actions that will be implemented to tackle the problem in accordance with the nursing diagnoses ( Boedihartono ,1994). Implementation is the realization of the plan of management and nursing have been prepared at the planning stage ( Effendi , 1995). Nursing interventions in post- operative patients ( Doenges , 1999) include :
    • DP 1 :Goals : establish a normal breathing pattern / effective and free of cyanosis or other signs of hypoxia. Expected outcomes : no change in the frequency and depth of breathing .

    Autism Nursing Diagnosis and Care Plan


    What is Autism ?
    Autism is a cognitive disorder that affects the developmental or learning ability of an individual. The manifestations of the disorder usually appear as early as the first three years of life. As a result of the neurological disorder, it disrupts the normal functioning of the brain affecting the development of the communication skills and social interaction skills of the person. Difficulties in verbal and non-verbal communication, leisure activities, and social interaction are seen in both children and adults with the disorder.

    Causes of Autism
    The actual cause of autism is still unknown. However, following are some of the known causes of autism:
    • Structural or functional damage of central nervous system
    • Genetic conditions
    • Abnormal development of brain
    • Rett syndrome
    • Biochemical defects
    • Seizure
    • Landau kleffner syndrome
    Symptoms of Autism
    The symptoms of autism differ from person to person. However, following are some of the symptoms of autism:
    • Problem in non-verbal communication
    • Difficulty in interacting with people
    • Problem in expressing emotions
    • Ritualistic behavior
    • Repetitive body movements
    • Resisting changes
    • Restricted interests
    • Seizures
    • Self injurious and aggressive behavior
    The other common symptoms of autism are mood swing, short attention span, dislike of physical contact, attachment to certain objects, suicidal thoughts and violent or threatening behavior.

    Diagnosis of Autism
    There is no lab test that can detect autism. Autism is often diagnosed when a baby or toddler doesn’t behave as expected for his or her age. If your doctor thinks your child has autism, he or she will probably suggest that your child see a child psychiatrist or other specialist. The specialist will probably test your child to see if he or she shows signs of autism.

    Treatments for Autism
    Different autism professionals practice different procedures for treating autism. However, following are some of the treatments for autism:
    • Special education for the child
    • Behavioral management
    • Medications
    • Biomedical and complementary therapies
    • Antipsychotic drugs
    • Minerals, vitamins and dietary interventions
    The medications such as antidepressants, stimulants, clonidine and buspirone help in controlling and treating autism.

    NANDA - Autism Nursing Diagnosis and Care Plan
    NANDA Nursing Diagnosis for Autism
    According to Townsend, MC (1998) can be formulated nursing diagnosis in patients / children with pervasive developmental disorder of autism include:
    1. Risk for Self-Mutilation related to:
    • Developmental tasks that are not resolved from trust to distrust.
    • Fixation on pre-symbiotic phase of development.
    • Pathophysiological changes that occur in response to physical conditions such as maternal rubella, phenylketonuria is not resolved, encephalitis, tuberculosis sclerosis, anoxia during birth and syndrome X fragilis.
    • Maternal deprivation.
    • Sensory stimulation that is not appropriate.
    • History behaviors mutilation / injure themselves in response to the increasing anxiety.
    • Obvious indifference to the environment or the hysterical reactions to changes in the environment.
    2. Impaired Social Interaction related to:
    • Impaired self-concept.
    • The absence of people nearby.
    • Unresolved developmental task of believers versus unbelievers.
    • Pathophysiological changes that occur in response to physical conditions such as maternal phenylketonuria rubella is not resolved, encephalitis, tuberous sclerosis, anoxia during birth syndrome X. fragilis
    • Maternal deprivation.
    • Sensory stimulation that is not appropriate.
    3. Impaired Verbal Communication related to:
    • The inability to trust.
    • Withdrawal from self.
    • Pathophysiological changes that occur in response to physical conditions such as maternal phenylketonuria rubella is not resolved, encephalitis, tuberous sclerosis, anoxia during birth fragilis X syndrome
    • Maternal deprivation.
    • Sensory stimulation that is not appropriate.
    4. Disturbed Personal Identity related to:
    • Prasimbiotik fixation phase of development.
    • Uncompleted tasks of trust versus mistrust.
    • Maternal deprivation.
    • Sensory stimulation that is not appropriate.

    Pediatric Nursing Care Plan – Fluid Volume Deficit related to Diarrhea


    Nursing Care Plan for Diarrhea – Nursing Diagnosis: Fluid Volume Deficit related to frequent bowel movements
    Goal:
    • Fluid balance can be maintained within normal limits
    characterized by:
    • Urine output in accordance
    • Capillary refilling less than 2 seconds
    • Elastic skin turgor
    • Mukusa membranes moist
    • Showed no weight loss
    Expected outcomes
    • Children get enough fluids to replace lost fluids.
    • Children show signs of adequate hydration is characterized by moist mucous membranes, good skin turgor, the normal eye, vital signs within normal limits.
    Nursing Interventions: Fluid Volume Deficit – Nursing Diagnosis for Diarrhea
    Independent
    1. Assess hydration status
    Rational: direct indicator of fluid status / repair imbalances.
    2. Assess fluid intake and output.
    Rationale: Shows the overall hydration status.
    3. Monitor vital signs.
    rational:
    Assist in the evaluation of the degree of fluid deficit / effectiveness of fluid replacement therapy and response to treatment.
    Collaboration
    1. Laboratory tests according to the program; electrolytes, hematocrit, pH, serum albumin.
    Rationale: Provides information on hydration, organ function.
    2. Fluid and electrolyte suitable protocol (with oralit and parenteral fluids).
    Rationale: Fill / maintain circulating volume and electrolyte balance.

    Nursing Care Plan for Intussusception



    Definition
    Intussusception is the inclusion of part of the intestine into the border or the more distal parts of the intestine (general, ileal invagination into the descending colon). (Nettina, 2002)
    Invagination or intussusception occurs when some gastrointestinal driven such that a portion of it will cover most of the other to shrink or retracts fully into a segment that is located next to the caudal. (Nelson, 1999).
    An intussusception is a medical condition in which a part of the intestine has invaginated into another section of intestine, similar to the way in which the parts of a collapsible telescope slide into one another. This can often result in an obstruction. The part that prolapses into the other is called the intussusceptum, and the part that receives it is called the intussuscipiens. (wikipedia)

    Clinical Manifestations
    Early symptoms can include nausea, vomiting (sometimes bile stained (green color)), pulling legs to the chest area, and intermittent moderate to severe cramping abdominal pain. Pain is intermittent not because the intussusception temporarily resolves, but because the intussuscepted bowel segment transiently stops contracting. Later signs include rectal bleeding, often with “red currant jelly” stool (stool mixed with blood and mucus), and lethargy. Physical examination may reveal a “sausage-shaped” mass felt upon palpation of the abdomen.
    In children or those too young to communicate their symptoms verbally, they may cry, draw their knees up to their chest or experience dyspnea (difficult or painful breathing) with paroxysms of pain.
    Fever is not a symptom of intussusception. However, intussusception can cause a loop of bowel to become necrotic, secondary to ischemia due to compression to arterial blood supply. This leads to perforation and sepsis, which causes fever.

    Nursing Care Plan for Intussusception
    Nursing Assessment – Nursing Care Plan for Intussusception
    1. Assessment of general physical
    2. Medical history
    3. Observation stool patterns and behavior before and after surgery
    4. Observations of behavior of children / infants
    5. Observation manifestations occur intussusception:
    • Paroxysmal abdominal pain.
    • Children screamed and fold knees toward your chest.
    • Children seem normal and comfortable during the interval between episodes of pain.
    • Vomiting.
    • Lethargy.
    • Currant jelly-like stool containing blood and mucus, hemocculi test positive.
    • Feces no increase.
    • Abdominal distention and tenderness.
    • Palpable mass in the abdomen are like sausages.
    • The anus that looks unusual, it can seem like a rectal prolapse.
    • Dehydration and fever to rise 41 0C.
    • Things like shock with rapid pulse, pale and sweating a lot.
    6. Observation of the chronic manifestations of intussusception:
    • Diarrhea.
    • Anorexia.
    • Losing weight.
    • Sometimes vomiting.
    • Periodic pain.
    • Pain without other symptoms.
    7. Assess the diagnostic procedures and tests such as plain abdominal examination, barium enema and ultrasonogram.

    Nursing Diagnosis – Nursing Care Plan for Intussusception
    1. Acute Pain related to bowel invagination.
    2. Ineffective Tissue Perfusion: shock hipolemik related to vomiting, bleeding and accumulation of fluid and electrolytes in the lumen.
    3. Anxiety related to lack of knowledge, foreign environment.
    4. Ineffective Thermoregulation related to the process of inflammation, fever.
    5. Acute Pain related to surgical incision.

    Nursing Care Plan for Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma



    Definition of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
    Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a malignant tumor that grows in the nasopharynx with a predilection in Rossenmuller fossa and roof of the nasopharynx.

    Etiology of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
    High incidence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is associated with eating behavior, environment and Epstein-Barr virus. Besides geographic factors, racial, gender, genetics, occupation, habits of life, culture, socio-economic, bacteria or parasite infections also affect the likelihood of this tumor.

    Signs and Symptoms of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
    Symptoms of nasopharyngeal carcinoma can be divided into 4 sections, which include:
    1. Symptoms of nasopharyngeal
    Nasopharyngeal Symptoms can be mild epistaxis or nasal obstruction.
    2. Disorders of the ear
    An early warning because the place of origin of the tumor near the mouth of the Eustachian tube (Rosenmuller fossa). Disruption resulting from blockage of the Eustachian tube, such as tinnitus, deafness, ear discomfort until the pain in the ear.
    3. Eye and neurological disorders
    Because of the proximity to the cranial cavity, then there is spreading through the foramen lacerum, which will hit the brain to nerves III, IV, VI thus encountered diplopia, squint, exoftalmus, and nerves to the V form of motor and sensory disturbances.
    4. Metastasis to the cervical lymph
    Namely in the form of lump medial to the sternocleidomastoid muscular that eventually form large masses to the skin shiny.

    Nursing Assessment – Nursing Care Plan for Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
