after reconstitution, may be either higher or lower than the previous level before the invasion of the stressor.

A

Level of Stability

44
Q

the nurse examines the client’s basic makeup and identifies known, unknown, and universal stressors.

A

Step 1: Assessment

45
Q

Predispositions are considered, as they influence how the client deals with stressors. Neuman’s five variables (physiological, psychological, sociocultural, developmental, and spiritual) are used to assess predispositions and stressors.

A

Step 1: Assessment

46
Q

The client’s perception of these stressors is discussed, and the nurse provides input. Stressors are identified as interpersonal, intrapersonal, or extrapersonal.

A

Step 1: Assessment

47
Q

ex: PATIENT PROFILE

A

Step 1: Assessment

48
Q

A nurse assesses a patient who has been diagnosed with hypertension (high blood pressure). The assessment includes gathering information about the patient’s medical history, lifestyle factors (such as diet and exercise), and current stressors. The nurse also considers the patient’s physiological variables (e.g., blood pressure, heart rate), psychological variables (e.g., anxiety levels), sociocultural variables (e.g., family support), developmental variables (e.g., age-related factors), and spiritual variables (e.g., religious beliefs). The patient’s perception of stressors related to managing hypertension is discussed, and the nurse provides education on stress management techniques.

A

Step 1: Assessment

48
Q

Based on the assessment, the nurse formulates a nursing diagnosis for the patient, such as “Ineffective Health Management related to lack of knowledge about hypertension.” Collaboratively with the patient, the nurse establishes goals, such as “Patient will achieve and maintain target blood pressure levels through lifestyle modifications.” The nurse then plans interventions, which may include teaching the patient about dietary changes, exercise routines, and medication adherence. The nurse implements these interventions by providing education, monitoring the patient’s progress, and offering support.

A

Step 2: Diagnosis, Planning, Implementation

48
Q

describes the context of the whole client as a system.

A

Step 2: Diagnosis, Planning, Implementation

48
Q

Interventions are planned and carried out at three levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention.

A

Step 2: Diagnosis, Planning, Implementation

48
Q

Goals are determined collaboratively with the client.

A

Step 2: Diagnosis, Planning, Implementation

49
Q

involves assessing nursing outcomes, including changes in intrapersonal, interpersonal, and extrapersonal factors.

A

Step 3: Evaluation

50
Q

Any changes in the nature of the stressors are examined, as they determine the success of nursing interventions.

A

Step 3: Evaluation

51
Q

After several weeks of implementing the nursing interventions, the nurse evaluates the patient’s progress. The evaluation includes assessing changes in the patient’s blood pressure (intrapersonal factor) and interactions with family members regarding lifestyle changes (interpersonal factor). The nurse also examines any changes in the patient’s overall stress level and perception of managing hypertension (extrapersonal factors). If the patient has successfully lowered their blood pressure and adapted to lifestyle changes, the nursing interventions are considered effective. However, if there is no significant change, the nurse may need to collect additional data and adjust the plan accordingly.

A

Step 3: Evaluation

51
Q

If no change has occurred, further data collection is required, and the nursing process is repeated.

A

Step 3: Evaluation

52
Q

theory assertations: Each client system is unique and composed of various factors within a range of responses.

A

BETTY NEUMAN

53
Q

theory assertations: Stressors can be known, unknown, or universal and can disturb a client’s stability level.

A

BETTY NEUMAN

54
Q

TA: The interrelationships of client variables affect the protection provided by the flexible line of defense against stressors.

A

BETTY NEUMAN

55
Q

TA: When the flexible line of defense cannot protect against a stressor, it breaks through the normal line of defense.

A

BETTY NEUMAN

56
Q

TA: There’s a normal line of defense that serves as a standard for measuring health deviation.

A

BETTY NEUMAN

57
Q

TA: Clients are dynamic composites of variables, with wellness on a continuum of available energy.

A

BETTY NEUMAN

58
Q

TA: Internal resistance factors called lines of resistance stabilize and realign the client to wellness.
