This topic (respiratory) looks at the chronic states of tuberculosis (TB), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, cystic fibrosis, and pneumonia. You will learn how to identify metabolic acidosis/alkalosis and respiratory acidosis/alkalosis and what that means for the client. In addition, you will consider the diagnostic tools for the respiratory system and the client-centered care of these clients. Do not forget the “Acid Base Balance Worksheet.”
Objectives:
- Incorporate pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and diagnostic studies related to pneumonia, tuberculosis, cystic fibrosis, asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
- Collaborate with interprofessional partners to develop a comprehensive plan of care for persons across the adult life span with pneumonia, tuberculosis, cystic fibrosis, asthma, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
- Apply the nursing process to plan, prioritize, and implement evidence-based, person-centered, quality nursing management of adults with pneumonia, tuberculosis, cystic fibrosis, asthma, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, including ongoing assessment, age-related or diversity considerations, medication education, self-care strategies, and follow-up care for any health setting.
- Build on previous knowledge to make use of medication classification, mechanism of action, indications for use, calculations, nursing considerations, major adverse effects, and evaluation of therapeutic effectiveness of selected medications used in the treatment of adults with pneumonia, tuberculosis, cystic fibrosis, asthma, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
- Evaluate outcomes of care, including medications, self-care effectiveness, and recognition of potential complications.
