A client is diagnosed with cancer of the rectum and has surgery for an abdominoperineal resection and colostomy. Which nursing c
ehidna [41]

Answer: Monitoring for any change in color and edema at the injury site

Health education on self care of the colostomy

Fluid resuscitation (may also be considered medical care)

Patient diet should be monitored as patient should be on a liquid diet.

Explanation:

1) we are monitoring for any change in color at the site of injury, because of infection. If there is infection there is likely to be change in color of injury site.

Edema is a swelling, If there is a swelling at the injury site post operation, then it means something is wrong.

We then act because we don’t want sepsis to set in.

Fluid resuscitation because it is likely that patient becomes dehydrated post operation.

Also Patient’s diet is monitored because of the surgery we don’t want patient to be taking solid food so as to prevent an irritation of the gastrointestinal tract.

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

When an individual is suffering from any disease or visit to the hospital generally are in some type of stress and the hospital itself is a place makes clients or patients stressed. Patients require support from their loved ones and healthcare professionals or doctors in order to overcome and remain calm and positive attitude towards the disease.

Lack of positivity or more stress can result in ineffective coping because of an inadequate level of confidence in the ability to overcome. This can be seen as a loss of interest or poor self care.

1b. This client is anxious about the surgery because of a lack of knowledge about the treatment, and self care and discharge needs that cause a client to exhibit inappropriate, exaggerated behavior.
