The nursing care plan assessed a patient at risk for impaired respiratory function due to dyspnea, use of accessory muscles, abnormal ABG values, cyanosis, low oxygen saturation, and tachycardia. The plan was for the patient to maintain effective respiratory function as evidenced by the ability to breathe comfortably, baseline respiratory rate and depth, pulse oximetry or ABG values within normal levels, and resolved dyspnea. Nursing interventions included monitoring respiration, oxygen saturation, and signs of airway obstruction during and after a conscious sedation procedure until the patient returned to baseline.
