HISTORY:
09/14/2021 – 8:40am - Mrs. Dinah L. Ligo, a 29 years old G1P0 (1-0-0-0) mother 39 weeks age of gestation was
brought to the Emergency Room at Baguio General Hospital with chief complaints of active labor pains occurring
every 15 minutes interval. Triage done by ER nurse on duty with hospital number given as O235438. Initial vital
signs taken as follows: BP - 120/80, PR - 106, RR - 22, Temp. 36.5, FHT - 138, SPO2 -92%, weight 62kgs.
Ushered to OB - ER cubicle per wheelchair. Seen and examined by Resident on duty Dr. Pee with dark line
noted in the abdomen, 38cm Fundic height measures from the symphysis pubis to the xyphoid process. Internal
examination revealing 6 cm dilatation of the cervix and 70% effaced. Bag of water still intact, no bleeding and no muscle
cramps. Dr. Pee ordered to admit to labor room to OB ward bed #2 and to secure consent for admission. Intravenous fluid to
insert 1L D5LRS to run for 16 hours, for CBC and urinalysis. Check FHT every 30 minutes. Oral medication to start HNBB 10mg
1 tablet every hour.
At 4pm - since there is a delay in the progress of labor, the OB-Gynecologist, ordered administration of Oxytocin 10

COLLABORATION
Activity 7: As a future nurse you should be able to work with your co-nurses and other health care professionals and form a
team sharing knowledge and resources to solve or provide patient care.
Concepts: referral to primary health care provider to rule out CS or continue with normal delivery of the baby.
Ex of scenario: Normally, contractions become more frequent, intense and longer as labor progresses, but after
administering oxytocin and HNBB, the contractions becomes less frequent, less intense and shorter in duration. WHAT IS
YOUR RESPONSIBILITY AS A NURSE?
Explain to the mother what is the purpose of administering HNBB and oxytocin injection in order for the mother to
comprehend and cooperate and also verbalize if there are any side effects of the medicine/drug to her system.
Assess her vital signs and FHT to have a baseline data in monitoring the progress of labor or any deviation.
Refer to medical professionals for any deviation from the normal vital signs and expected progress of labor for
possible CS procedure.
ETHICO-MORAL-LEGAL CONCERNS
Activity 8: These principles concern the ethics of caring rather than 'curing' by exploring the everyday interaction between you
as a nurse and the person in your care.
Concepts: justice, beneficence, nonmaleficence and autonomy
Example Scenario: Given the numbers of patients that are under your care in the OB ward, some patients can be
annoying and difficult to handle due to their current situation and the pain that they are going through. The nurse decided
to be nicer to other patients who are much nicer than those who are not. What do you think should have been the Nurse’s
reaction?
The nurse should treat all her patients nicely no matter how they behave because according to the ethical principle
“justice”, as a health provider we need to deliver quality care to our patients equally even if it upsets you. We take
into consideration their present situation as needing care and we are the caregivers who should be the one
understanding them always. Moreover, according to the concept of beneficence doing good for the benefit of our
client and treating well our patients foster and build trust in patient-nurse relationship.

ACTIVITY 9:
Incorporating all the data that had been presented to you and your readings:
create a concept map or table on the pathophysiology of the patient’s disease/condition.
Incorporate the risk factors present in your patient based on his/her history,
the signs and symptoms presented by your patient as shown on his/her PE and ROS,
the lab results provided by the various diagnostic exams.
Group all cues together showing how you were able to arrive to a certain nursing diagnosis/es.
Lastly, include the various medications and or procedures that were given to your patient placing them on their right places
at the map.
