Course Name: CARE OF CLIENTS WITH PROBLEMS IN OXYGENATION, FLUID AND ELECTROLYTE BALANCE, NUTRITION AND METABOLISM AND ENDOCRINE
Course Code: NCM 103
Course Description: This course deals with the principles and techniques of nursing care management of sick clients across lifespan with emphasis on the adult and the older person, population group in any setting with alterations/problems in oxygenation, fluid and electrolyte balance, nutrition and metabolism and endocrine function.
Course Credit: 8 units lecture; 6 units RLE (1 unit skills lab, 5 units Clinical)
Course Objectives: At the end of the course and given relevant actual clients with problems in oxygenation, fluid and electrolyte balance, nutrition and metabolism, and endocrine function, the student should be able to:
1. Utilize the nursing process in the care of individuals, families in community and hospital settings.
Assess with client/s his/her/their condition/health status through interview, physical examination, interpretation of laboratory findings.
Identify actual and at-risk nursing diagnosis
Plan appropriate nursing interventions with client/s and family for identified nursing diagnosis
Implement plan of care with client/s and family.
Evaluate the progress of his/her/their client’s condition and outcomes of care.
2. Ensure a well-organized and accurate documentation system;
3. Relate with client/s and their family and the health team appropriately;
4. Observe bioethical concepts/principles, core values and nursing standards in the care of clients; and,
5. Promote personal and professional growth of self and others.

TIME FRAME
EVALUATION
At the end of the lecture discussion, the students will be able to: 1. Utilize the nursing process in the care of individuals, families with problems in oxygenation in community and hospital settings;
1. Identify risk factors among clients that contribute to the development of problems in Oxygenation- cardiovascular risk factors (modifiable and non-modifiable).
The different risk factors among clients that contribute to the development of problems in oxygenation:
After the discussion, the students will be able to identify the modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors that contribute to the development of problems in oxygenation.
assessment Medication
history 2. Ensure a well-organized and accurate documentation system
2. Identify significant subjective data from client history related to problems in oxygenation
a. Chief complaints b. Relevant information, to include eleven functional patterns
The students should be able to identify significant subjective data from client’s history by enumerating the possible chief complaints and recording relevant information guided by the eleven functional patterns.
e pattern Coping-
stress tolerance pattern
Value-belief pattern
3. Relate with client/s and their family and the health team appropriately;
3. Enumerate the principles and techniques of physical examination in assessing the oxygenation status in newborn, children, adults.
a. Inspection- gas exchange, perfusion b. Palpation- gas exchange, perfusion c. Percussion- gas exchange d. Auscultation- gas exchange- heart sound, breath sounds, deviations, fluid transport
The students will be able to perform the proper techniques in physical examination and apply the principles in correctly assessing the newborn, children, and adult’s oxygen status by comparing any deviations from normal findings
4. Observe bioethical concepts/principles, core values and nursing standards in the care of clients; and,
4. Identify results and implications of diagnostic/laboratory examinations of clients with reference to problems in Oxygenation.
5. Promote personal and professional growth of self and others.
Determine the Pathophysiologicmechanisms of the alterations in oxygen
a. Alteration in gas exchange – ventilator dysfunction, impaired perfusion b. Alteration in cardiac performance – heart rate problems, impaired stroke volume secondary to altered preload, afterload, myocardial contractility c. Alteration in vascular integrity –
The students should be able to determine the pathophysiologic mechanisms in the different oxygenation problems.
transport network impairment d. Alteration in oxygen carrying capacity of the blood- decreased circulating erythrocytes (anemia), increased circulating erythrocytes (polycythemia)
6. 6. Enumerate Nursing diagnoses taxonomy pertinent to problems/alteration in Oxygenation.
a. Ineffective breathing pattern b. Ineffective airway clearance c. Impaired gas exchange d. Inability to sustain spontaneous ventilation e. Dysfunctional 3entilatory weaning response f. Decreased cardiac output (CO) g. Altered tissue perfusion systemic h. Impaired gas exchange related to altered O2 carrying capacity of blood due to decreased erythrocytes/
The students should be able to identify possible nursing diagnoses taxonomy pertinent to the derived assessment data to pertinent problems in oxygenation.
hemoglobin i. Activity intolerance related to malnutrition tissue hypoxia
7. Identify principles of various modalities of management of clients with problems in oxygenation taking into consideration the following levels of care: 1. Health promotion2. Disease preventive 3. Curative and restorative
For altered pulmonary function:
Airway patency
Oxygen therapy
Adequate ventilation Drug therapy
Hydration Removal of
secretion Prevention
of infection Prevention
of complications
Prevention of psychosocial problems
Rehabilitation
b. For cardiac function
The students should be able to apply the various principles in the management of clients with problems in oxygenation in the actual clinical nursing practice. The students should be able to provide the patients/clients with the proper teachings on health promotion, disease prevention and curative and health restoration.
