RA 9173
Philippine Nursing Act of 2002
Definition of Health (WHO)
Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.
In this model, disease results from the interaction between the agent and the susceptible host in an environment that supports transmission of the agent from a source to that host.
Epidemiologic Triad - agent, host, environment
Describes a health grid in which a health axis and anenvironmental axis intersect. The grid demonstrates the interaction of theenvironment with the illness–wellness continuum

The individual’s state of health is one of continual change; moves back and forth from health to illness and back to health again.
THE HEALTH-ILLNESS CONTINUUM
Illness
Subjective feeling; pt’s experience of ill health
Disease
Actual alteration in the normal function of the body; objective
Stages of Illness Behavior
Symptom experience
Assumption of sick role
Medical Care Contract
Dependent Patient Role
Recovery/Rehab
Stage of Illness Behavior where pt believes that something is wrong
Symptom experience
Priority during symptom experience
Management of symptoms
Stage of Illness Behavior where pt seek advice, self mgt, or leave from work
Assumption of sick role
Stage of Illness Behavior where pt accept or reject treatment
Dependent patient role
Stage of Illness Behavior where pt is ready to accept health teachings
Recovery/Rehabilitation
Stress
nonspecific response of the body to any demand
Stressor
Factor or agent producing stress, maybe: physiological, psychological, social, environmental, developmental, spiritual or cultural and represent an unmet needs
General Adaptation Syndrome phases
Alarm, Resistance, Exhaustion
Alarm
Upon perceiving a stressor, the body reacts with a “fight-or-flight” response and the sympathetic nervous system is stimulated as the body’s resources are mobilized to meet the threat or danger.
Resistance
The body resists and compensates as the parasympathetic nervous system attempts to return many physiological functions to normal levels while body focuses resources against the stressor and remains on alert.
Exhaustion
If the stressor or stressors continue beyond the body’s capacity, the resources become exhausted and the body is susceptible to disease and death.

Local Adaptation Syndrome
Response of a body tissue, organ or part to the stress of trauma, illness or other physiological change
Inflammatory Response
stimulated by trauma or infection. This response localizes the inflammation, thus revenging its spread and promotes healing.
Cardinal signs of inflammation
Rubor (redness)
Calor (heat)
Tumor (swelling)
Dolor (pain)
Loss of function
Type of exudates: Serous
clear, thin and watery plasma. It’s normal during the inflammatory stage of wound healing
Types of exudates: Sanguinous
fresh bleeding; bloody
Serosanguineous
thin, watery and pale red to pink in color.
Seropurulent
thin, watery, cloudy and yellow to tan in color.
Purulent
thick and opaque exudate that is tan, yellow, green or brown in color; pus
Primary Intention
Uncomplicated healing of a non-infected, well-approximated wound is defined as primary healing. e.g. Surgical wounds.
Secondary Intention
occurs when the sides of the wound are not opposed, therefore healing must occur from the bottom of the wound upwards.
