Subjective: Masakit po pag bumabangon ako as verbalized by the patient while pointing at his incision site. Objective: Facial mask of pain Guarding behavior V/S taken as follows: Bp: 100/70 T: 37.8 P: 80 RR: 18
Acute appendicitis
Appendectomy
After 8 hours of nursing intervention patient will report that pain is relieved and controlled, will appear relaxed and will be able to sleep and rest appropriately.
Independent 1. Assess the type of pain, noting location, characteristics and severity using the pain scale of 010. 1. Useful in monitoring effectiveness of medication, progression of healing and preventing complications. 2. Reduces abdominal distention, thereby reduces tension in the RLQ area 3. Helpful in keeping the patients tissue and muscles relaxed and relieved.
After 8 hours of nursing interventions, the patient was able to demonstrate use of relaxation skills, other methods to promote comfort
Surgical wound will trigger activation of nociceptors from the tissues and will send impulses to the brain

Acute Appendicitis
Appendectomy
Tissue trauma on RLQ abdomen may provide portal of entry for pathogens through: Unnecessary exposure of the surgical site Inadequate aseptic techniques especially in wound dressing Contact with patients SOs and visitors
After 8 hours of nursing intervention, the patient and his SOs will identify the risk factors that could be present and have partial understanding about its control and will finally be free from any signs and symptoms related to infection.
Independent: 1.Identify the risk factors for possible occurrence of infection in the incision 2. Render health teachings especially in identification of environmental risk factors that could add up on infection. 1. To help the patient identify the present risk factors that may cause infection 2. To help the client modify, change or avoid some of the environmental factors present which could reduce the incidence of infection. 3. Monitoring patients vital signs could detect any early signs of infection
After 8 hours of nursing intervention, the patient was able to meet the goals with an evidence of the absence of the signs and symptoms related to infection.
Dependent 1. Administer antibiotics as ordered 1. Antibiotics will help kill and stop the proliferation and growth of the bacteria which could cause infection.
Collaborative 1. Assist client in early ambulation 1. Promotes normalization of organ function thus promote wound healing.
NURSING DIAGNOSIS Impaired skin integrity related to post surgery of the abdomen as evidenced by sutures in the abdominal area.
INFERENCE
PLANNING Goal: By the end of the shift, the client will develop and maintain optimal conditions for wound healing. Objectives: 1. After 30 minutes, the nurse will be able to assess the extent of involvement or injury. 2. After the shift, the nurse will be able to assist the client with correcting and minimizing condition and promote optimal healing of wound

EVALUATION
Situation analysis: Impaired skin integrity was due to the clients tissue trauma on the surgical incision site from his recent surgery caused by small bowel obstruction. Health Implication: The skin is a barrier to infectious agents; however, any break in the skin can readily serve as a portal of entry putting the individual at risk for potential infections. (Fundamentals of Nursing by Kozier, et.al., 7th edition, page 633)
1. Note skin color, texture, and turgor. 2. Palpate skin lesions for size, shape, consistency, texture, temperature, and hydration. 3. Determine degree or depth of injury or damage to skin. 4. Measure length, width, depth of wound. 5. Inspect surrounding skin for erythema, induration, and maceration. 6. Note odors emitted from the wound. 1. Inspect skin, describing wound characteristics and changes observed. 2. Remeasure wound and observe for complications.

The client developed and maintained optimal conditions for wound healing as evidenced by responses to interventions and teaching and actions performed and gradual healing of his wound.
