NCP CR Impaired Spontaneous Ventilation
Subjective Cues:
She was admitted last April 1, 2015due
to a decrease in sensorium. Though she
was conscious during that time, she
experienced vomiting, difficulty of
breathing, bowel and urinary
incontinence. Her BP already reached
240/100. She was managed under
antihypertensive medications.

Nursing Diagnosis
Impaired
spontaneous
ventilation related to
brain injury
secondary to Acute
CVD
Background Knowledge
According to NANDA,
impaired spontaneous
ventilation is a decrease in
energy reserves that
results in an individuals
inability to maintain
breathing adequate to
support life.
An airway problem is
always the priority problem
that the nurse should
address immediately.
Cerebrovascular disease is
a sudden impairment of
cerebral circulation in one
or more of the blood
vessels supplying the
brain. This pathology either
causes hemorrhage from a
tear in the vessel wall or
impairs the cerebral
circulation by a partial or
complete occlusion of the
vessel lumen with transient
or permanent effects.
Respiratory impairment is
one of the life-threatening
effects that it have caused.

Nursing Diagnosis
Ineffective cerebral
tissue perfusion
related to frequent
episodes of increased
BP secondary to
Acute CVD
Background Knowledge
According to Doenges,
ineffective cerebral tissue
perfusion is a state in which
a decrease in cerebral
oxygen supply results in the
failure of the nourishment
of tissues in the capillary
level.
Cerebrovascular disease is
a sudden impairment of
cerebral circulation in one
or more of the blood
vessels supplying the
brain. This pathology either
causes hemorrhage from a
tear in the vessel wall or
impairs the cerebral
circulation by a partial or
complete occlusion of the
vessel lumen with transient
or permanent effects.

Moyet, possible
complication: sepsis is
described when a person is
experiencing or at high risk
to experience a systemic
response to the presence of
pathogenic bacteria,
viruses, fungi, or their
toxins. The microorganisms
may or may not be present
in the bloodstream.
Sepsis is SIRS plus the
presence of an infection.
Systemic inflammatory
response syndrome is
described as a
systemic level of acute
inflammations as
manifested by elevated
WBC count,
hypo/hyperthermia,
tachypnea and tachycardia.
