Mr. Rivera is a 72-year-old patient with end stage COPD who is in the care of Hospice. He has a history of smoking, hypertension, obesity, and type 2 Diabetes. He is on Oxygen 2L per nasal cannula around the clock. His wife and 2 adult children help with his care. Develop a concept map for Mr. Rivera. Consider the patients Ethnic background (he and his family are from Mexico) and family dynamics. Please use the concept map form provided.

Subjective Statement:
“I can’t catch my breath.”
Objective Assessments:
Decreased oxygen saturation
Increased respiratory rate
Use of accessory muscles for breathing
Sources of Diagnostic Data:
Pulmonary function tests
Chest X-ray
Arterial blood gas analysis
Electrocardiogram
Complete blood count
Possible Nursing Diagnoses:
Ineffective airway clearance related to increased sputum production and thickening as evidenced by decreased oxygen saturation and increased respiratory rate
Impaired gas exchange related to reduced lung function as evidenced by decreased oxygen saturation and increased respiratory rate
Activity intolerance related to shortness of breath as evidenced by decreased activity level and increased respiratory rate
Nursing Interventions:
Assist with positioning for optimal breathing
Encourage deep breathing and coughing exercises
Monitor oxygen saturation and adjust oxygen delivery as needed
Medical Interventions:
Oxygen therapy
Bronchodilators
Diuretics
Patient Education:
Importance of smoking cessation
Medication regimen and side effects
Use of oxygen therapy and proper oxygen safety precautions
