Hyperthermia and Ineffective Airway Clearance related to Bronchitis

Nursing Diagnosis and Interventions for Bronchitis:

1. Ineffective airway clearance related to increased production of secretions.

Goal: The client does not feel shortness of breath and no sputum.

Expected outcomes:

• Maintain a patent airway with breath sounds clean or clear.
• Shows behavior to improve airway clearance, for example: an effective cough.

Interventions:

• Assess the respiratory function, breath sounds, the speed of the rhythm.
• Assess a comfortable position for a client.
• Suggest to cough effectively.
• Collaboration: Provision mukolitik, Give the drug as an indication.

Rationale:

• Assist the breathing pattern changes.
• Breathing can facilitate the circulation in the body.
• Cough teach effectively so patients independently.
• To lower airway spasm.
• Lowering the mucosal edema and smooth muscle spasm.

2. Hyperthermia related to the inflammatory process.

Goal: The client can reach the normal temperature.

Expected outcomes:

• Normal body temperature (36.5 to 37.5 0C-0C)

Interventions:

• Give a warm compress or cold pack in accordance with the client's approval.
• Encourage clients to use clothing that is thin and absorbs perspiration.
• Dressing damp or wet with sweat that much.
• Give a thin blanket.
• Collaboration: Give antipyretics.

Rationale:

• Warm compresses help dilate the pores of the skin surface so as to accelerate heat dissipation.
• Clothing that is thin, does not hinder the body's heat loss.
• Clothes are damp / wet will cause inconvenience to the client.
• Thick blanket that will hinder the body's heat loss.
• Can help you lose body heat.
