Case Study: Delegation

It is the beginning of the evening shift on a step-down unit. Your team for the evening includes you (the RN), another RN, one LVN, and one UAP. Here are the patients on the unit:

Room 1A: 50-year-old female with ovarian cancer. Had an argument with her husband and is asking that all visitors be restricted.

Room 1B: 88-year-old female with dehydration. Is now confused, and a urine sample is needed to rule out a urinary tract infection (UTI).

Room 2A: 44-year-old male admitted with a nonhealing abdominal wound after gastric bypass. The wound has a negative pressure wound therapy system that needs to be changed this shift.

Room 2B: 78-year-old male with bacterial endocarditis who will be returning to the nursing home to continue his IV antibiotics. Needs transfer form completed, assistance with dinner, and a bath.

Room 3A: 35-year-old male going for an IV contrast CT. Received call from radiology that transportation is on its way to pick up the patient; patient does not have any IV access.

Room 3B: 18-year-old male admitted for 23-hour observation for mild concussion after falling at an ice rink. Patient is ready for teaching prior to discharge.

Room 4A: 22-year-old female with SIADH on fluid restriction. Current fluid restriction is 200 mL for evening shift and 100 mL for night shift. Family has brought in multiple food items as well as her favorite sodas to drink.

Room 4B: 25-year-old female with PID. Needs to receive IV antibiotics, and a weight is required to prepare the proper dose.

Question 7: What care delivery model is described in this scenario?

Question 8: The UAP informs you that the patient in 1B has a fever of 102° F. After performing an assessment, you decide to call the health care provider. How would you use SBAR to communicate with the provider?

Create a conceptual map using the case scenarios as guide. Conceptual map should include pathophysiology, medical diagnosis, signs and symptoms, and risk factors, if any. Nursing diagnosis, nursing interventions, medical management (medication and procedures), expected outcomes

A 37-year old man with chronic renal failure who was secondary to chronic glomerulonephritis had been on peritoneal dialysis for approximately 6 months without any episode of peritonitis. In December 2019, he was admitted to the hospital for fever, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and cloudy dialysate several hours after eating stinky tofu. The peritoneal effluent culture yielded Aeromonas Sobria. The patient was given levofloxacin for 10 days. The patient symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal pain were relieved and the cloudy effluent turned to be clear. Unfortunately, peritoneal dialysis catheter was blocked because of fibrin clot formation in the setting of inflammation, and finally it was removed.

A 17 year-old man walked into a local clinic in Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica, complaining of fever (102.7°), headaches, decreased energy and appetite, and a rash that was most pronounced after bathing. The patient’s right eye was swollen shut, and he reported it was both painful and itchy. No eye discharge was detected. Bloodwork results found the patient to have a white blood cell count of 6.1 x 10³ cells/µL, and a platelet count of 3.8 x 10⁹/L. Blood, cerebral spinal fluid, intestinal, and stool samples were collected and sent to the hospital laboratory for analysis. Urinalysis failed to demonstrate any abnormalities and creatinine levels were found to be 0.6 mg/dL.

The organisms to consider for your case study are:

• Cryptosporidium parvum
• Entamoeba histolytica
• Plasmodium spp.
• Toxoplasma gondi
• Trichmonas vaginalis
• Trypanosoma gambiense

1. What is the organism you identified?
2. What evidence led you to this conclusion?
3. What would you expect to see under the microscope in samples collected from: blood, cerebral spinal fluid, intestines, and stool?
4. What additional samples would you request (if any) and why? What is the suggested treatment regime?
