A Case Presentation on UTI Page 1

INTRODUCTION:
A urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common type of infection that occurs in the urinary tract
which includes the kidneys, the ureters, the bladder and the urethra. The symptoms of a UTI include
pain or a burning sensation during urination (dysuria), a frequent need to urinate, and lower
abdominal pain.
Normally, urine is sterile. It is usually free of bacteria, viruses, and fungi but does contain fluids,
salts, and waste products. An infection occurs when tiny organisms, usually bacteria from the digestive
tract, cling to the opening of the urethra and begin to multiply. The urethra is the tube that carries
urine from the bladder to outside the body. Most infections arise from one type of bacteria,
Escherichia coli (E. coli), which normally lives in the colon. Any abnormality of the urinary tract that
obstructs the flow of urine (a kidney stone, for example) sets the stage for an infection. An enlarged
prostate gland also can slow the flow of urine, thus raising the risk of infection. People with diabetes
have a higher risk of a UTI because of changes in the immune system. Any other disorder that
suppresses the immune system raises the risk of a urinary infection.
The infection is usually mild and usually resolves within four to five days. Antibiotics can be
used to help speed up the recovery time. However, some patients find that they experience repeated
UTIs, and that they require long-term treatment with antibiotics to prevent the infection returning.
Complications of a UTI are uncommon, but serious, and include kidney failure, where the
kidneys lose almost all of their functioning capability and blood poisoning, also known as sepsis These
complications usually only affect people with a pre-existing health problem, such as diabetes because
of the changes in immune system, and weakened immune system (the body’s natural defence against
infection).
UTIs are a very common type of infection particularly in women. It is estimated in the
Philippines that one woman in three will have a UTI before the age of 24, and that half of all women
will have at least one UTI during their lifetime. This is less common in men. It is estimated that every
year in the Philippines, in otherwise healthy men, only one in every 2,000 will develop a UTI.
This case presentation is done to increase our awareness with regards to infections affecting
the urinary system. This is to widen our knowledge and to have a strong background about urinary
tract infection. This case presentation will definitely help us in future purposes; this will be our
foundation when we encounter such in the field we’ve chosen.

OBJECTIVES:
General Objectives:
 This case presentation was designed to develop a holistic and patient centered nursing care and
responsibilities. This is to broaden the knowledge of the presenters as well as the audience with
regards to Urinary Tract Infection; this is also designed to enhance skills and attitudes in the
application of nursing process and management of the disease.
Specific Objectives:
-For the participants/critics, for us presenters, for the patient & significant others to have a
better understanding on the disease process.
-To identify the factors (predisposing, precipitating or etiologic agent if any) that causes the
disease.
-To identify the sign and symptoms manifested by the patient with Urinary Tract Infection and
perform further assessment to be able to recognize appropriate nursing intervention to be
rendered.
-Discuss the anatomy and physiology and how it is being altered the disease process.
-To have the pathophysiology and to trace the occurrence of Urinary Tract Infection.
-To utilize properly the nursing process (assessment, diagnosis, planning, intervention,
evaluation) as the framework for the care of the patient.
-To select appropriate nursing diagnosis for the patient with UTI based on assessment findings.
-To learn various medications, it’s condition, adverse effects & accompanying nursing
responsibilities.
-To put into action what we have learned in the school (such as nursing process) and apply our
knowledge in providing quality and individualized nursing care.
-To enhance group’s attitude, like discipline, cooperation, leadership abilities and teamwork in
making and presenting a case presentation.
-To involve the patient’s family in the implementation of nursing management throughout
hospital experienced.

GORDON’S 11 FUNCTIONAL PATTERNS:

1. HEALTH PERCEPTION-HEALTH MANAGEMENT PATTERN
Before hospitalization:
Mr. AB’s description about his health is a situation wherein he can do tasks and activities
without hindrances in his physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual living. He rates his
health 8 on a health scale, 10 as the highest and 1 as the lowest. Every time he feels bad about
his health, he increases his fluid intake, he rests and he sleeps as management. According to
him, he seeks medical advice whenever he feels something bad in his health. But at times, he
seeks for the assistance of albolaryos. One thing that proves that he seeks albolaryos is his hair
being cut in the upper part of his head, according to him, the albolaryo sucked little amount of
blood in that site using the horn of a carabao. It is believed that this process can clean the blood
of the individual/costumer.
During hospitalization:
The client said that it seems he is imprisoned and manacled with the consequences of
being unhealthy that he cannot function well and cannot longer perform his ADL’s due to his
present condition. He describes his current health problem as something which down casted
him from the normal ways of running his life which made him rate his health status as 5 in the
above mentioned health scale. Though at some intonations of his voice, he wants to insist that
he’s okay.
2. NUTRITION-METABOLIC PATTERN
The patient weighs 62 kilograms and he has a height of 5’7”. He eats three times a day
with 2-time snacks, in the morning at around 9am and in the afternoon at around 3pm.
According to him he eats foods that are being prepared; he is not choosy in terms of eating but
their usual menu according to his SO are vegetables. He made verbalized that he takes soft
drinks or juices twice a day, included to these is water. In a day, he takes approximately 4 litres
of water. According to him, he don’t take any supplemental vitamins
The patient said that he doesn’t have the appetite to eat, but, still his drinking habits
and behaviours don’t changed. According to him, though he has loss of appetite, he still needs
to eat. He needs to follow the diet given by the attending physician which is DAT and he eats
foods given by the hospital.
3. ELIMINATION PATTERN
Mr. AB did not specified how many times a day he urinates but he made mentioned that
he urinates frequently a day which measures approximately ½ cup every urination. His urine is
yellow amber in colour. He mentioned that whenever he feels that he wants to urinate, he tries
to stop that feeling and finish first what he is doing before urinating. One week prior to
hospitalization, he feels a little/slight pain during urination, the pain according to him was in the
4th level of the pain scale, 10 as the highest and 1 as the lowest. He defecates 1-2 times a day
with brown stool. He doesn’t use enemas and suppositories. He feels no discomfort during
defecation.

He urinates frequently from 12-14 times with a measurement of ½ of a cup a day with a
yellowish colour, he feels slight pain during urination, and the level of the pain in pain scale is
the same on before hospitalization. He defecates once during the 1 st shift of our stay in hospital
with yellow-brown color.
4. ACTIVITY-EXERCISE PATTERN
He considers his work being a carpenter as a form of his exercise. According to him, he
does carpentry every day. This is their form of living. Though he finds this work tiring, he don’t
have any choice but to do it since he serve as the breadwinner in their family. Taking rest
particularly lying on bed is his way to overcome his tiredness and stress. In terms of his leisure
activities, he, together with his family goes out once a month, Mr. AB believes that in this way,
the bonding of their family ties more strongly.
Because of his unwanted health problem, Mr. AB’s ability to work and to do activities
and exercises is so much affected. He is thinking on how to continue their living if he’s in
hospital suffering a disease. With his present condition, he needs assistance in performing
hygiene practices such as dressing, bathing, etc. He also needs some support and assistance in
going to the CR.
5. SEXUALITY-REPRODUCTIVE PATTERN
According to Mr. AB, he is sexually active, but recently, he and his wife engaged into
sexual intercourse twice a week. The couple doesn’t use any methods to prevent pregnancy.
Mr. AB hasn’t yet contracted a sexuality transmitted infection. He described his level of
satisfaction in his sexual relationship as 8 in a scale 10 as the highest and 1 as the lowest. He
has three children, the eldest is a 19 year old male; next to the eldest is a 14 year old boy and
the youngest is a 13 year old girl.
Due to hospitalization, the sexual activity of the couple was interrupted. According to
him, he misses having intercourse with his wife.
6. SLEEP-REST PATTERN
Mr. AB sleeps at night at around 7pm and wakes up at around 1am. He has 1hour nap
during the day usually 12noon up to 1pm in the break of his work as a carpenter. According to
him, he doesn’t have difficulty falling asleep but he wakes up very early and cannot fall asleep
again.
According to the client, he can’t easily fall asleep in the hospital because he is used to
sleep in their house and not on other houses or even hospitals. He doesn’t also have continuous
sleeping patterns (he sleeps then after few hours or minutes, he wakes up) because of
responding in his urge to micturate. But according to him, he’s okay because he does nothing in
the hospital but to sleep, sit and lay down. The client doesn’t take any sleep-inducing drugs.
7. COGNITIVE-PERCEPTUAL PATTERN

All his senses are all functioning. He is aware of his environment. He has the ability to
understand, communicate, write, remember and make decisions.
There are no changes in the functions of the patient’s senses. He still has the ability to
understand, communicate, write, remember and make decisions. He is oriented and aware of
her environment.
8. ROLE RELATIONSHIP PATTERN
Mr. AB has a good relationship in his family and his friends. He is not involved in any
organizations in their place but he has good relationship with the people around them.
The relationship and intimacy of the patient to his roles and responsibilities is lessened
and decreased due to a great situation which trapped him to continue it.
9. SELF-PERCEPTION – SELF-CONCEPT PATTERN
“Ako yung tipo ng tao na gagawin lahat ang aking makakaya para maiangat ang estado
ng aking pamilya” as verbalized by Mr. AB. According to him, he is healthy and he described
himself as strong and well rounded father to his family as well as in his society.
“Para akong ibong naputulan ng pakpak” was the verbalization of the client. He wants to
go home; He can’t let himself stay no longer in the hospital.
10. COPING STRESS TOLERANCE PATTERN
Whenever the client feels stressed or tired, He increases his fluid intake and he takes
rest and sleep. He also prays for spiritual support. According to him, the most stressful thing in
his life is when problems come in one time. He is also being stressed with his works and being
worried about their financial problems.
If he feels stressed, he just sleep, rest and relax. Sometimes, he cries his problems and
he prays for God’s protection and guidance.
11. VALUE-BELIEF PATTERN
The client believes in God and he knows that he is the main source of her strength and
hope. He is Roman Catholic; he attends masses sometimes because of busyness.
The client’s relationship to God became closer despite of his condition. He believes that
God has a great contribution in his recovery.

ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY:
Urinary system parts and their functions:

 2 kidneys - a pair of purplish-brown organs located below the ribs toward the middle of the
back. Their function is to:
o remove liquid waste from the blood in the form of urine

o keep a stable balance of salts and other substances in the blood
o produce erythropoietin, a hormone that aids the formation of red blood cells
The kidneys remove urea from the blood through tiny filtering units called nephrons.
Each nephron consists of a ball formed of small blood capillaries, called a glomerulus, and a
small tube called a renal tubule.
Urea, together with water and other waste substances, forms the urine as it passes through the
nephrons and down the renal tubules of the kidney.
 2 ureters - narrow tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder.
Muscles in the ureter walls continually tighten and relax forcing urine downward, away from the
kidneys. If urine backs up, or is allowed to stand still, a kidney infection can develop. About every 10 to
15 seconds small amounts of urine are emptied into the bladder from the ureters.
 bladder - a triangle-shaped, hollow organ located in the lower abdomen. It is held in place by
ligaments that are attached to other organs and the pelvic bones. The bladder's walls relax and
expand to store urine, and contract and flatten to empty urine through the urethra. The typical
healthy adult bladder can store up to two cups of urine for 2 to 5 hours.
 2 sphincter muscles - circular muscles that help keep urine from leaking by closing tightly like a
rubber band around the opening of the bladder.
 nerves in the bladder - alert a person when it is time to urinate, or empty the bladder.
 urethra - the tube that allows urine to pass outside the body.
The brain signals the bladder muscles to tighten, which squeezes urine out of the bladder. At
the same time, the brain signals the sphincter muscles to relax to let urine exit the bladder
through the urethra. When all the signals occur in the correct order, normal urination occurs.
