Orthopnea is the best term for the nurse to include in his or her assessment.
Breathing that is difficult or painful is referred to as dyspnea. It is a patient's subjective experience that they perceive and describe. Dyspnea on exertion (DOE) may be a natural occurrence, but when it happens at a level of activity that is typically well tolerated, it is seen as symptomatic of illness.
Orthopnea is the feeling of being out of breath while lying down; it is remedied by sitting or standing. A feeling of shortness of breath that causes the patient to wake up, frequently after one or two hours of sleep, is known as paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea (PND), and it is typically resolved when the patient is upright.
