Assessment Subjective:

Diagnosis Activity Intolerance related to immobility secondary to pneumonia

Scientific Rationale

Planning After 8 hours f nursing intervention, the patient will maintain activity level within capabilities, s evidenced by normal heart rate, blood pressure during activity, and absence of shortness of breath, weakness, and fatigue

Intervention >established rapport on the client >vitals signs monitored and recorded >assessed patients level of mobility

Objective:

>Assessed nutritional status

>taught passive ROM exercise Therapeutic intervention: >encouraged adequate rest periods, especially before ambulation, diagnostic procedures and meals >Anticipate

Scientific Rationale -to establish trust and cooperation on the client -to obtain the baseline data and to monitor changes -to define what patient is capable of, which is necessary before setting realistic goals -adequate energy reserves are required for activity -to promote strength and joint range of motion

Evaluation

-to reduce cardiac workload

-to minimize

patients needs >encouraged ageverbalization of feeling regarding limitations

activity -to acknowledge that living with activity intolerance is both physically and emotionally difficult aids in coping

Patient education: >taught the significant others to recognize signs of physical overactivity >taught the importance of continued care once at home -to promote awareness of when to reduce activity -to maintain strength, range of notion, and endurance gain

**monitor patients sleep pattern and amount of sleep achieved over the past few days. Difficulties sleeping need to be addressed before activity progression can be achieved.
