II. NURSING CARE BASIC CONCEPTS
A. ASSESSMENT
1. Genitourinary: cloudy urine, proteinuria, decreased urine output, hematuria.
2. Kardivaskular: hypertension.
3. Neurological: lethargy, irritability, seizures.
4. Gastrointestinal: anorexia, azotemia, hyperkalemia.
5. Integumentary: pale, edema.
B. NURSING DIAGNOSIS AND INTERVENTION
1. Changes in the pattern of urinary elimination (dysuria, urge, frequency, or nocturia) associated with a kidney infection.
Objective: urinary elimination pattern in the normal range (3-6 x / day).
Results Criteria: - Patients can urinate normally.
- There is no infection in the kidneys, no pain while urinating.
Intervention:
- Measure and record urine per micturition.
Rationale: To determine the changes in color and to determine the input / output.
- Suggest to urinate every 2-3 hours.
Rational: To prevent the buildup of urine in the urinary vesicles.
- Palpate bladder every 4 hours.
Rationale: To determine the presence of bladder distension.
- Assist clients to the restroom, use bedpans / urinals.
Rationale: To facilitate clients in urination.
2. Changes in nutrition less than body requirements related to anorexia.
Objective: Nutritional needs of patients are met adequately.
Criteria results: Clients will show marked improvement with a portion of the intake will be spent at least 80%.
Intervention:
- Provide high-carbohydrate foods.
Rationale: A diet high in carbohydrates are usually more appropriate and provide essential calories.
- Serve food a little but often, including the client's favorite foods.
Rationale: Serving food a little but often provide an opportunity for clients to enjoy the food, presenting favorite foods to increase appetite.
- Limit sodium and protein corresponding input order.
Rationale: Sodium can cause fluid retention, in some cases the kidneys can not metabolize protein, so it is necessary to restrict fluid intake.
3. The pain associated with kidney infection.
Goal: Pain is reduced or absent.
Results Criteria: - Client indicates a relaxed face.
- Infection can be overcome.
Intervention:
- Assess the intensity, location, and factors that aggravate and mitigate pain.
Rationale: Pain is a great sign of infection.
- Provide adequate rest periods.
Rationale: Clients can rest in peace and may relax the muscles.
- Encourage drinking plenty of 2-3 liters if there are no contraindications.
Rational: To assist clients in urination.
- Provide appropriate analgesic therapy program.
Rational: Analgesics can block the path of pain.
