- The patient presented with difficulty breathing and productive cough. Nursing assessment found pale appearance, dyspnea, use of accessory muscles for breathing, and respiratory rate of 41 cycles per minute.
- The nursing diagnosis was ineffective airway clearance related to secretions in the bronchi. The pathophysiology involved irritant inhalation causing inflammatory response and increased secretions.
- The short term goal was to maintain airway patency and reduce congestion through various nursing interventions over 4 hours. The long term goal was to decrease the respiratory rate to 12-20 cycles per minute over 2 days.
