    The patient reported difficulty walking after getting off a jeep due to neuromuscular skeletal impairment. On examination, the patient had limited range of motion and decreased muscle strength and inability to purposefully move. After 4 hours of nursing intervention focusing on encouraging participation in recreational activities, instructing in range of motion exercises, and assisting with self-care activities, the patient was able to regain or maintain mobility at the highest possible level.

    Nursing Diagnosis Impaired physical mobility related to neuromuscular skeletal impairment Subjective !

    Nabangga"an ko ug ta#i pagpadulong namo sakay ug jeep$ as verbali%ed by the patient& Objective 'imited range of motion Decreased muscle strength Inability to move purposely

    Scientific Analysis A fracture is a break in the continuity of bone& A fracture occurs (hen the stress placed on a bone is greater than the bone can absorb& )he stress may be mechanical *trauma+ or related to a disease process *pathologic+& ,uscles$ blood vessels$ nerves$ tendons$ joints and body organs may be injured (hen fracture occurs& -omplication of fractures include problems associated (ith immobility *muscle atrophy$ joint contracture$ pressure sores+$ infection$ shock$ venous stasis and thromboembolism$ pulmonary emboli and fat emboli and bone union problems&

    Objective After . hours of nursing intervention the patient (ill regain or maintain mobility at the highest possible level&

    Nursing Intervention Assess degree of mobility produced by injury or treatment and note patient/s perception of immobility&

    Rationale 0atient may be restricted by self"vie( or self" perception out of proportion (ith actual physical limitations re1uiring interventions to promote progress to(ard (ellness& 0rovides opportunity for release of energy$ refocuses attention$ enhances patient/s self control or self" (orth and aids in reducing social isolation& Increases blood flo( to muscle and bone to improve muscle tone$ maintain joint mobility2 prevent contractures or atrophy and calcium resorption from disease& Improve muscle strength and

    Evaluation After . hours of nursing intervention the patient (as able to regain or maintain mobility at the highest possible level&
