Diagnosis A1: Fluid Volume excess related to Compromise d regulatory mechanism secondary to renal failure
Planning P1: After the 8 hour of nursing intervention, the patient will display appropriate urinary output with specific gravity/laborato ry studies near normal; stable weight, vital signs within the patients normal range and absence of edema
Intervention Initiate NPI V/S monitored q4 and recorded especially RR and PR Record accurate intake and output (I&O).
Evaluation Goal met. The patient displayed appropriat e urinary output, stable vital signs within the patients normal range and absence of edema.
-Accurate I&O is necessary for determining renal function and fluid replacement needs and reducing risk of fluid overload -Edema occurs primarily in dependent tissues of the body, e.g., hands, feet, lumbosacral area, patient can gain up to 10 lb (4.5 kg) of fluid before pitting edema is detected.

grade of 1 out of 5 from the Grading Motor Strength test. V/S taken as follows: Temp: 36.5C PR: 83 bpm, 2+ RR: 20 cpm, bilateral chest expansio n. BP: 140/120 mmHg
t is usually calculated to replace output from all sources plus estimated insensible losses. -Given early in oliguric phase of Renal Failure in an effort to convert to nonoliguric phase, flush the tubular lumen of debris, reduce hyperkalemi a, and promote adequate urine volume. -May be given to treat hypertensio n by counteractin g effects of decreased renal blood flow and/or circulating volme overload.
