Answer 1

A client with a dsm-iv-tr diagnosis of delirium and a nursing diagnosis of acute confusion related surgery secondary to a traumatic hip fracture will prioritize safety.

The major nursing care plan goals for delirium are as follows: The client will keep his or her agitation under control so that he or she does not become violent. Delirium prevention strategies include early and frequent mobility (especially during the day), frequent orientation, sleep management, ensuring the patient has glasses and/or hearing aids on, fluid and electrolyte management, and effective pain management.Delirium assessment seeks to confirm the diagnosis, identify and treat the causes, manage and relieve symptoms, and collect data to aid in the development of treatment plans.
