Pertinent Past Medical History 10 year old African American male Born on 30DEC11 Normal delivery/birth history Vaccinations up to date No prior surgeries/hospitalizations Asthma
-exercise induced-uses rescue Albuterol inhaler
NKDA
Psychosocial History Education
-currently in 5th grade-well rounded student
Family-only child-lives one mother in 2 bedroom apartment
Cultural Consideration-low socio-economic status-amputee
Circumstances Leading to Hospitaliation
JH was playing with friends on railroad track near home
He decided to run across tracks prior to oncoming train
JH’s foot gets caught in the tracks
Suffers a BKA of left leg
Admitting DiagnosesPrimary Traumatic below the knee amputation of
left leg
Secondary Debridement and wound vac placement
to left leg PICC line insertion
PathophysiologyAmputations may be elective or traumatic.
Elective amputations are related to peripheralvascular disease and arteriosclerosis. Complications result in ischemia in distal areas ofthe lower extremity. Traumatic amputations aremost often the result of an accident from machinery,motor vehicle accidents, or industrial machinery. Traumatic amputations are also increasing during thewars in Afghanistan and Iraq due to roadside bombs(Ignatavicious & Workman, 2010).
Current Developmental Stage
Industry VS Inferiority-growing sense of
independence-building new skills-develops a sense of
accomplishment-seeks extrinsic sources
of reinforcement that provide encouragement and stimulation
Concept MapPt Initials: JHAge: 10Medical Diagnosis: Left below knee amputationSecondary Diagnosis: Debridement and wound vac placement
1. Acute PainBelow knee amputation9/10 pain without medsPhantom painWound vac draining serosanguinous fluidTENS electrodesHR 115, BP 128/84
OxycodoneGabapentin
2. Impaired physical mobilityRestricted movement of LLEDecreased ROM of LLEPain with movement of extremityWound vac attached to LLEUse of assistive devices (walker, wheelchair)
Use walker, wheelchairRegular OT/PT visitsPerform ADL’s without assistance
3. Risk for infectionDebridement/wound vac placementPICC lineOpen woundImmobility
RBC-3.23, WBC-6.8, Plt-695
4. Ineffective CopingInability to make decisionsLack of goal directed behaviorInadequate problem solvingPoor concentrationNightmares of accidentFatigue
Child LifeSocial workChaplain
5. Disturbed body imageRequest for amputation site to be wrapped with acewrapRefusal to discuss amputationActual change in structure of LLERefusal to look at amputation siteCovers site with blankets or clothing
Child lifeSocial work
Expected OutcomesAcute Pain- patient will have pain controlled as evidenced by
a pain level below 3/10 on pain scale.Impaired physical mobility- patient will maintain efforts in
achieving optimal independence through therapy (OT/PT) during each session as evidenced by increased gait stability.
Risk for infection- use of aseptic technique throughout shift. Patient and family will be able to verbalize signs and symptoms of infection by end of shift.
Ineffective coping- patient will be able to demonstrate coping strategies such as expressing feelings, deep breathing exercises, and guided imagery.
Disturbed body image- patient will verbalize concerns about body image throughout hospitalization.
Holistic Nursing CareTraditional- providing for basic healthcare
needs
Complimentary- OT, PT, Childlife
Alternative- use of dry erase boards at bedside
Collaborative- patient goal orientation with family members
