    Dolores, a 35-year-old woman, was experiencing weakness and inability to tolerate fluids due to nausea and vomiting. She was diagnosed with fluid volume deficiency due to hypertonic dehydration, as indicated by elevated serum sodium, increased urine specific gravity, and inability to react to thirst. The nursing care plan included monitoring vital signs, administering IV fluids and electrolytes under supervision, and collaborating with other departments to check urine and stool. The short-term goal was for Dolores to show improvement in strength and ability to respond to thirst within 48 hours. The long-term goal was for her to return to her baseline health with no further signs of dehydration after a week of observation.
