Acute Pulmоnаry Plаn оf Cаre Review the pulmоnary infection cases to determine whether the diagnosis is infectious rhinitis, influenza, acute bronchitis, acute bronchiolitis, or pneumonia. Then, you will begin the plan of care. J.M. is a 21-year-old male. Subjective Data (condensed) CC: “I feel awful. I couldn’t go to class this morning.” HPI/ROS Sudden onset of myalgia with his body aching all over and headache for the past day. He feels tired and has the chills, and his temperature was 100°F. He has a mild nonproductive cough. He denies rhinorrhea, sinus pain, nausea, otalgia, or shortness of breath. Denies nausea, abdominal pain, or vomiting. He reports exposure to sick contacts in his dorm, stating, “Everyone seems to be coughing and catching a cold or the flu.” Medications: none Allergies: penicillin Past medical history: healthy Social history: college student, lives in a dormitory. Nonsmoker and drinks alcohol once a week, about two or three beers. Objective Data Physical exam: Vital signs: temperature 100°F; pulse 98 beats per minute; respiratory rate18 per minute; blood pressure 110/70 mmHg; pulse oximeter 98% General: ill and tired appearance Head, Eyes, Ears, Neck, Throat (HEENT): unremarkable Neck: no lymphadenopathy; negative Kernig sign, negative Brudzinski sign Cardiovascular lungs, abdomen: unremarkable What other subjective or objective data would you determine? (10 points) Clinical manifestations occur because of the immune response. Signs and Symptoms include fever, chills, headache, myalgia, malaise, exhaustion, and non-productive cough with chest discomfort. Other clinical manifestations are similar to those found in viral rhinitis and can include watery rhinitis, sore throat, and nasal congestion. Vomiting and diarrhea may occur but this is more common in children than adults. On exam, you would expect to find warmth to the skin, flushing of cheeks, possible abnormal respiratory sounds, redness to nares, and overall appearance of the patient to be that they appear ill, cervical lymphadenopathy may be present as well. Keep in mind that the subjective findings are what the patient tells you their symptoms are and you would document them how the patient describes them to you: fever, chills, body aches, tiredness, runny nose, sore throat, dry cough, chest feels tight, nose is congested, vomiting, nausea or upset stomach, diarrhea Objective findings are what you find on your exam, this is what you as the provider can see, feel, and hear on examination. What diagnostic tests (if any) would you advise for this client? Provide rationale. (10 points) Viral cultures may take 2-10 days to result, rapid tests in the office can provide results within 10 minutes and can determine the type of flu, whether it is A or B. The reason this testing is important is to determine the diagnosis especially due to the fact the patient will need to isolate at home and ensure proper treatment. Viral infections do not require antibiotics and treatment would be supportive. Also, knowing the diagnosis will allow the patient to notify anyone they have been in contact with to watch for symptoms due to the contagious nature of this condition. What is the most likely primary diagnosis (select one) and pathogen causing this disorder? (10 points) – Assessment Jack most likely has influenza type A. Influenza A is unique because of the continual antigen changes of H and N. The type of virus is an orthomyxovirus which binds the sialic acid receptor on respiratory epithelial cells. This attachment is what initiates infection. Discuss the mode of transmission and discuss the data that supports your decision. (10 points) The virus is transmitted through the inhalation of or contact with respiratory droplets. The typical season for influenza infection is October -March. Children are two to three more times likely to contract the flu and will frequently spread the virus to others. Once a person is infected by the virus replication occurs quickly as the virus shuts down the host cell protein synthesis for three hours which allows viral proliferation. In incubation period is 1-4 days with peak transmission 1 day before onset of symptoms and lasts 4-7 days afterward. Children can be infectious for more than 10 days and young children can spread the virus for 6 days before the onset of symptoms with severely immunocompromised people can spread the virus for weeks to months. (Dlugash & Story, 2024) What are the differential diagnoses (other possibilities) that Jack may have? (10 points) infectious rhinitis, influenza, acute bronchitis, acute bronchiolitis, pneumonia, COVID, RSV, Lower respiratory tract infection 6.Develop a treatment plan for this client with rationales for each: A.Prescription pharmacological therapy (if indicated) (10 points) Antiviral medications: M2 Inhibitors: amantadine or rimantadine Neuraminidase Inhibitors: Zanamivir, oseltamivir (Tamiflu) and peramivir Baloxavir marboxil (Xofluza) is a newer category of medication for the flu that inhibits polymerase acidic endonuclease, which is necessary for viral reproduction. (Note these meds must be taken within 48 hours of onset of symptoms) B. Non-prescription (OTC) pharmacological therapy (10 points) Antipyretics an analgesics: Acetaminophen, NSAIDS Cough medications increased fluid intake, adequate rest, isolation, good hand hygiene C.Thorough patient education. (Remember this is a college student living away from home who may be caring for himself for the first time.) (20 points) Symptoms will be present for several days even with treatment. This is a viral illness and some symptoms may continue for weeks. Need to stay home/in dorm until afebrile for 24 hours or longer without medication. Ensure to follow a healthy diet and increase fluid intake Take all medications as prescribed Ensure good hand hygiene If fever remains >100.4 and does not improve with antipyretics or if symptoms worsen to include shortness of breath, inability to perform daily activities or unable to intake food or water return to clinic or report to nearest ER. 10 points for APA-formatted References Dlugasch, L. & Story, L.

Chrоnic Pulmоnаry Plаn оf Cаre Review the following information and follow the question format in developing the plan of care. T.J. is a 15-year-old male. He is accompanied by his mother. Subjective Data (condensed) CC: “My inhaler isn’t working like it used to.” HPI/ROS He has a history of asthma, is complaining of increasing asthma symptoms (wheezing, shortness of breath) for the past 3 to 4 months. He states he has been using his short-acting bronchodilator (SABA) 3 to 4 times a week and feels his symptoms have been flaring up. He has been waking up at night about two times a month. No recent illnesses. No fever, no fatigue. Wheezing with occasional nonproductive cough. Denies chest pain. Denies any abdominal or skin issues. Medications: SABA Allergies: NKDA Past medical history: asthma Social history: attends high school, lives with parents. Admits to vaping “occasionally.” Denies ETOH or illicit drugs. Parents are nonsmokers. They have one pet dog in the home. Objective Data (condensed) His vital signs are temperature 98.6°F, pulse 84 beats per minute, respirations 18 per minute, blood pressure 110/70 mmHg, and pulse oximeter 96%. Upon examination, he is awake, alert, talking in full sentences, and is in no acute distress. HEENT exam is unremarkable. Lung auscultation reveals mild expiratory wheezing throughout. The remainder of the clinical examination reveals no other abnormalities. What other subjective or objective data would you determine? (10 points) Clinical manifestations of asthma: Expiratory wheezing, dyspnea, chest tightness, cough, anxiety, tachypnea, and tachycardia. Wheezing may be heard on expiration and accessory muscle use indicates that the treatment is not effective for current episode. Increased work of breathing leads to hypoxia. Keep in mind that triggers can include, animals, premenstrual in women, stress, NSAID use, beta-blockers, and Nocturnal triggers that occur between 3:00-7:00 AM relating to circadian rhythm, exercise, smoking, and vaping. (Dlugasch & Story, 2024) Keep in mind that the subjective findings are what the patient tells you their symptoms are and you would document them how the patient describes them to you. In this case: wheezing, shortness of breath, waking up at night due to difficulty breathing, wheezing and dry cough, no chest pain or fever. Other subjective information would be: Any increased stress? Use of OTC meds such as NSAIDS? How often do you vape? Does it contain nicotine? How long have you vaped? What usually triggers your asthma? Does this feel like it has in the past? Does your dog sleep in your room or on your bed? Objective findings are what you find on your exam, this is what you as the provider can see, feel, and hear on examination. Other objective data for this patient would be to examine nail beds, look for use of accessory muscles What asthma step/classification would Thomas fall into? (10 points) Thomas would fall into mild persistent due to symptoms>2 days per week but not daily, nighttime awakenings 3-4 times a month, SABA use >2 days per week but not daily and mild limitation on activities. (National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, 2020) A pulmonary function test is conducted. What two results would be consistent with the classification Thomas is in? (10 points) The results that would be consistent with the classification Thomas is in would be FEV >80% or FEV/FVC normal. The stepwise approach is meant to assist and not replace the clinical decision-making required to meet individual patient needs. The level of severity is determined by both impairment and risk (National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, 2020) Describe the effects of an inhaled corticosteroid on asthma pathophysiology and symptomatology; provide reference. (20 points) Inhaled corticosteroids inhibit the initial inflammatory events such as vasodilation, vascular permeability, and leukocyte emigration. They reduce the number of inflammatory cells and the various cytokines they produce. Glucocorticoids increase beta-2 receptors on airway smooth muscle and reduce mucus gland secretions. (Dlugasch & Story, 2024) Develop a treatment plan for this client with rationales for each: Prescription pharmacological therapy changes (if indicated); be specific. Should he also stay on his SABA? Provide rationales. (20 points) Add ICS to his SABA. Do not stop the SABA. ICS should be used daily. Treatment with regular daily low-dose ICS with as-needed SBA is highly effective in reducing asthma symptoms and reducing the risk of asthma-related exacerbations, hospitalizations, and death. (Global Initiative for Asthma, 2022). Thorough patient education; include when to follow up. (20 points) Take all medication as directed. Report any exacerbations. Report use of rescue inhaler >4 times a day Cessation of smoking/vaping Regular physical activity Avoid known triggers and NSAID use Follow a healthy diet (Global Initiative for Asthma, 2022). Return to clinic if symptoms do not improve or worsen. Keep regular follow-up appointments every 3-6 months. If symptoms become severe report to nearest ER. 10 points for APA-formatted References Dlugasch, L. & Story, L. (2024). Applied Pathophysiology for the Advanced Practice Nurse. (2nd ed).
