Pulmonary emboli; deep vein thrombosis
REPRODUCTIVE [AND SEXUALITY] STIMULI
Sexual intercourse; ejaculation
Menstruation; pregnancy; labor and delivery; ovarian cyst
NOTE: A risk diagnosis is not evidenced by signs and symptoms, as the problem has not occurred and nursing interventions are directed at prevention.
Criteria—Client Will:
• Identify risk factors present.
• Demonstrate preventive/corrective techniques.
• Be free of episodes of dysreflexia.
NURSING PRIORITY NO. 1. To assess risk factors present:
• Monitor for potential precipitating factors, including urological (e.g., bladder distention, urinary tract infections, kidney stones); gastrointestinal (bowel overdistention, hemorrhoids, digital stimulation); cutaneous (e.g., pressure ulcers, extreme external temperatures, dressing changes); reproductive (e.g., sexual activity, menstruation, pregnancy/delivery); and miscellaneous (e.g., pulmonary emboli, drug reaction, deep vein thrombosis).
• Monitor vital signs, noting changes in blood pressure, heart rate, and temperature, especially during times of physical stress to identify trends and intervene in a timely manner.
• Instruct all care providers in safe and necessary bowel and bladder care, and immediate and long-term care for the prevention of skin stress/breakdown. These problems are associated most frequently with dysreflexia.
• Administer antihypertensive medications when at-risk client is placed on routine “maintenance dose,” as might occur when noxious stimuli cannot be removed (presence of chronic sacral pressure sore, fracture, or acute postoperative pain).
• Refer to ND Autonomic Dysreflexia.
• Discuss warning signs of autonomic dysreflexia with client/ caregiver (i.e., congestion, anxiety, visual changes, metallic taste in mouth, increased blood pressure/acute hypertension, severe pounding headache, diaphoresis and flushing above the level of SCI, bradycardia, cardiac irregularities). Early signs can develop rapidly (in minutes), requiring quick intervention.
• Review proper use/administration of medication if preventive medications are anticipated.
• Assist client/family in identifying emergency referrals (e.g., healthcare provider number in prominent place).
ASSESSMENT/REASSESSMENT
• Individual findings, noting previous episodes, precipitating factors, and individual signs/symptoms.
PLANNING
• Plan of care and who is involved in planning.
• Teaching plan.
IMPLEMENTATION/EVALUATION
• Client’s responses to interventions and actions performed, understanding of teaching.
• Attainment/progress toward desired outcome(s).
• Modifications to plan of care.
DISCHARGE PLANNING
• Long-term needs and who is responsible for actions to be taken.
