DATE PERFORMED: NOV 8 2010 FINDINGS: gas dilatation of the small bowel loops noted some air in the colon. Soft tissue densities are remarkable. No abnormal calcification seen. COMMENT: Consider partial small bowel obstruction

FINDINGS: subtle upper and lingular reticular lesions noted. PTB vs. Pneumonia Heart, diaphragms, costophrenic sulci and bony cage are unremarkable. Ngt is in place.

Complete Gut Obstruction Intestinal obstruction is a partial

or complete blockage of the bowel that results in the failure of the intestinal contents to pass through.

Causes - Ileus, a condition in which the bowel doesn't work correctly but there is no structural problem Hernias Impacted feces (stool Foreign bodies (ingested materials that obstruct the intestines) Abnormal tissue growth Symptoms Abdominal distention Abdominal fullness, gas Abdominal pain and cramping Breath odor Constipation Vomiting

Internal hernia

Impairment of the passage of material through the bowel

Cessation of passage of flatus and feces

Distension of the proximal intestine with solids, fluid and gas

Pain, an increase in abdominal girth, and increased tension in the intestinal wall

Necrosis and perforation of the bowel

1. Activation of local and systemic inflammatory responses 2. Translocation of bacteria through the wall of the intestine.

1. Physical exam Your doctor will ask about your medical history and your symptoms. He or she will also do a physical exam to assess your situation. The doctor may suspect intestinal obstruction if your abdomen is swollen or tender or if there's a lump in your abdomen. 2. Imaging tests To confirm a diagnosis of intestinal obstruction, your doctor may recommend abdominal X-ray or computerized tomography (CT) scans. These tests also help your doctor determine if the obstruction is paralytic ileus or if it's a mechanical obstruction, and if it's a partial or a complete obstruction.

1. Hospitalization to stabilize your condition - Placing an intravenous (IV) line into a vein in your arm so that fluids can be given - Putting a nasogastric (NG) tube through your nose and into your stomach to suck air and fluid out to relieve abdominal swelling - Placing a thin, flexible tube (catheter) into your bladder to drain urine and collect it for testing 2. Treatment for a complete mechanical obstruction Complete obstruction, in which nothing can pass through your intestine, usually requires surgery to relieve the blockage. The procedure you undergo will depend on what's causing the obstruction and which part of your intestine is affected. Surgery typically involves removing the obstruction, as well as any section of your intestine that has died. Complete obstruction of the small bowel is preferentially treated with early laparotomy

3. Treatment for a partial mechanical obstruction If you have mechanical obstruction in which some food and fluid can still get through (partial obstruction), you may recover after you've been stabilized in the hospital. You may not require further treatment. Your doctor may also recommend a special low-fiber diet that is easier for your partially blocked intestine to process. If the obstruction does not clear on its own, you may need surgery to relieve the obstruction. 4. Treatment for paralytic ileus If your doctor determines that your signs and symptoms are caused by paralytic ileus, he or she may monitor your condition for a day or two in the hospital. Paralytic ileus is often a temporary condition that gets better on its own. If paralytic ileus doesn't improve within several days, your doctor may prescribe medication that causes muscle contractions, which can help move food and fluids through your intestines.

Name drug
Cefoxitin(Manowel) 1 gram/IV ANST IV q8 Anti infectives; Antibiotic; secondgeneration Cephalosporin

Mechanism of Action
Inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to one or more of the penicillinbinding proteins (PBPs) which in turn inhibits the final transpeptidation step of peptidoglycan synthesis in bacterial cell walls, thus inhibiting cell wall biosynthesis. Bacteria eventually lyse due to ongoing activity of cell wall autolytic enzymes (autolysins and murein hydrolases) while cell wall assembly is arrested.

Indication
Peri-operative prophylaxis.

Side Effects/ Contraindication


Nausea; vomiting; diarrhea; hypersensitivity reactions; nephrotoxicity; convulsions; CNS toxicity; hepatic dysfunction; hematologic disorders; thrombophlebitis. Contraindicated to hypersensitivity to cephalosporins.

Nursing Responsibilities
Determine history of hypersensitivity reactions to cephalosporins, penicillins, and history of allergies, particularly to drugs, before therapy is initiated. Report onset of loose stools or diarrhea. Monitor I&O rates and pattern Report any

Name drug

Mechanism of Action

Indication

Side Effects/ Contraindication

Nursing Responsibilities

Pantoprazole (Pantoloc) 40mg/IV OD Antacids, Antireflux Agents & Antiulcerants. Proton-pump Inhibitor

Inhibits the secretion of hydrochloric acid in the stomach by specific action on the proton pumps of the parietal cells.

Maintenance of healing of GERD associated with history of erosive esophagitis.

Headache, diarrhea. Edema, fever, onset of depression, blurred vision. Contraindicated to patients with known hypersensitivity to any of the constituents of Pantoloc or of the combination partners. Mild gastrointestinal complaints eg, nervous dyspepsia.

-Note indications for therapy, onset, characteristics of symptoms. -Record abdominal assessment, urea breath, or endoscopic findings if available.

Mechanism of Action

Indication

Side Effects/ Contraindication Drowsiness, GI Bleeding, Exfoliative, Dermatitis, StevensJohnsons Syndrome, Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis, Anaphylaxis Concurrent use with aspirin may effectiveness, adverse GI effects with aspirin, potassium supplements, corticosteroids, or alcohol, chronic use with acetaminophen may risk of adverse renal reactions, bleeding risk with arnica, chacomile, clove.

Nursing Responsibilities

Ketorolac (Toradol) Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agents, nonopiod analgesics Every 6 hours

Inhibits prostaglandin synthesis, producing peripherally mediated analgesia, Also has antipyretic and antiinflammatory properties. Antiinflammatory, Pain relief

Analgesia for moderate to severe acute pain. Alternative to Narcotic Analgesic.

(Pre-administration assessment) Patients who have asthma, aspirininduced allergy, and nasal polyps are at increased risk for developing hypersensitivity reactions.

Cues Subjective: --Objective: Post surgical incision Risk Factors: Environmental factor Decrease wound healing time Malnutrition (NANDA Edition11)

Nursing Diagnosis Risk for infection related to post surgical incision

Background Knowledge At increased risk for being invaded by pathogenic organisms

Goal After an 8 hours of nursing intervention the client should: Short Term identify the risk factors present in the clients condition client should partially understand the infection and its risk factors Long Term Effective prevention of infection Clients full understanding to the risk of infection

Intervention Assess the clients perception, level of understanding and needs

Rationale to identify and assess the different nursing intervention needed and to be done

Evaluation After the 8 hours of nursing intervention: goals met client have increased his level of understanding about the risks for infection

(NANDA Edition 11)

Obtain clients vital signs and pain scale

- to obtain a baseline data and assess the effectiveness of the nursing intervention - fever maybe secondary to infection
