Nursing Intervention
1. Monitor dietary intake, fluid intake and output, weight, serum electrolytes, and hydration status.
2. Make sure that the diet is free from causative agent but inclusive of essential nutrients, such as
protein, fats, vitamins, and minerals.
3. Maintain NPO status during initial treatment of celiac crisis or during diagnostic testing.
4. Provide parenteral nutrition as prescribed.
5. Provide meticulous skin care after each loose stool and apply lubricant to prevent skin breakdown.
6. Encourage small frequent meals, but do not force eating if the child has anorexia.
7. Use meticulous hand washing techniques and other procedures to prevent transmission of infection.
8. Assess for fever, cough, irritability, or other signs of infection.
9. Teach the parents to develop an awareness of the child’s condition and behavior; recognize changes
and care for the child accordingly.
10. Explain that the toddler may cling to infantile habits for security. Allow this behavior, it may
disappear as the physical condition improves.
11. Stress that the disorder is lifelong; however, changes in the mucosal lining of the intestine and in
general clinical conditions are reversible when dietary gluten is avoided.
