Summary

Patient is a 62-yr. old male with a cc of frequent productive cough for the past 6 months that is worse in the morning. The cough is worse with activity and relieved by rest. He has been experiencing decreased activity tolerance. Last year he routinely walked a mile a day and now he can’t walk over 20 feet without having to stop due to being short of breath. NR 601 Week 2 COPD Case Study Part 2

He has taken Robitussin DM without any relief in symptoms. He has a history of HTN for which he takes Toprol XL daily. He also takes a multivitamin daily. He is a former smoker of 20 pack-year who denies alcohol or illicit drug use. His father died at age 59 of MI & CHF. His father had a history of diabetes, HTN, and smoking. His mother is alive with a history of osteoporosis. His siblings are healthy.

ROS– Patient denies any fever, chills, or weight loss. He has no nasal congestion or post-nasal drip. Patient has shortness of breath with activity. He reports having a persistent productive cough with with-yellowish phlegm. Patient denies any chest pain or edema in his lower extremities.

PE-Upon exam patient is afebrile with a BP of 156/94, HR 66, RR 20 and o2 sat 94% on room air. His BMI is 39.23. No has clear nasal drainage. S1 and S2 with no murmurs. Lungs are clear bilaterally with faint forced expiratory wheezes in bilateral bases. Respirations unlabored. Legs without edema. NR 601 Week 2 COPD Case Study Part 2

Differential Diagnosis ranked most likely to least likely:

#1 COPD

COPD is a persistent respiratory condition that is common and preventable. Cigarette smoking is the most significant risk factor. COPD is characterized by chronic airflow limitation due to inflammation.  Structural changes and destruction of the lung parenchyma take place leading to loss of alveolar attachments to the small airways and a reduction in lung elastic recoil. These changes decrease the ability of the airways to remain open during expiration (GOLD, 2020).

Analysis:

Pertinent positives- chronic cough (6 months), progressive decrease in activity tolerance due to shortness of breath wheezing, history of smoking and was exposed to smoke as a child since his father smoked NR 601 Week 2 COPD Case Study Part 2

Pertinent negatives-afebrile, nasal turbinates without redness or edema, Oropharynx moist, no lesions or exudate, denies sore throat, no family history of COPD

#2 Asthma

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways. The inflammation is associated with bronchial hyperresponsive, constriction of the airways, and variable airflow obstruction that is reversible. This causes wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing. Contributing factors include exposure to allergens, environmental pollution, tobacco smoke, and obesity (GINA, 2019)).

Analysis: NR 601 Week 2 COPD Case Study Part 2

Pertinent positives- wheezing, on beta blocker, obesity, previous smoker and exposed to smoke as a child since father smoked, cough worse in morning, activity intolerance due to shortness of breath

Pertinent negatives-respirations unlabored, no occupational exposure (senior accountant), no     known environmental allergies, no family history of asthma

#3 Heart Failure

Heart failure (HF) is a complex syndrome that results from any structural or functional impairment of ventricular filling or ejection of blood.  Risk factors include HTN, elevated cholesterol, obesity, diet, and physical inactivity. Symptoms of HF include dyspnea, fatigue, fluid retention, and exercise intolerance. These clinical symptoms result from disorders of the pericardium, myocardium, endocardium, heart valves, or from certain metabolic abnormities (Yancy et al., 2013). NR 601 Week 2 COPD Case Study Part 2

Analysis:

Pertinent positives- shortness of breath, progressive activity intolerance, persistent productive cough, wheezing, HTN (155/94) Risk factors present: male, 62 yrs. old, history of HTN and smoking- Father has history CHF

Pertinent negatives- no edema in extremities, no JVD, heart rate 66 (no tachycardia)

Additional test or procedures:

Pulse oximetry- a simple non-invasive way to assess the patient’s arterial oxygen saturation. (GOLD, 2020). A decreased oxygen saturation may be present with COPD, Asthma, or HF. It is important to evaluate to determine if supplemental oxygen is needed.

Spirometry- Airflow limitation can be measure with spirometry. It is the most widely available and reproducible test of lung function (GOLD, 2020). This is a simple lung function test that can be used to diagnose asthma or COPD. An improvement of 12% and 200lm in the FEV1/FVC ratio after a bronchodilator indicates reversible airway obstruction. This would be helpful to differentiate asthma from COPD (Bringham & West, 2015). NR 601 Week 2 COPD Case Study Part 2

Chest x ray- A chest-xray will not diagnose asthma or COPD, but it will be used exclude the presence of some other pulmonary or cardiac diseases (GOLD, 2020). It can show heart enlargement and fluid in the lungs which would help diagnose HF.

CBC- A CBC will check for anemia, (which occurs in advanced COPD with hypoxemia), infection, or eosinophilia which would indicate an allergic or asthmatic component (GOLD, 2020).

BNP-A lower BNP can exclude the presence of HF and a higher result has a reasonably high predictive value to diagnose HF (Yancy et al., 2013).

Task #1 – Conclusion: Summarize Key Points

In this part of the Information Retrieval Paper, you will synthesize the main points from the three peer-reviewed, evidence-based articles. NR 601 Week 2 COPD Case Study Part 2

Directions:

In this section write a paragraph or two to synthesize the key points of the articles.  Consider this section a conclusion of your findings.

For full credit, each of the 3 articles needs a minimum of 3 sentences. Each article topic requires an in-text citation (3 total).

Synthesis Points from Articles (Type Below)

The first article was a retrospective study exploring the Impact of a COPD comprehensive case management program on hospital length of stay and readmission rates. COPD accounts for the majority of chronic disease hospitalizations that are associated with substantial economic and social burdens in the form of impaired quality of life and increased healthcare utilization costs. COPD comprehensive case management program is a vital intervention that can be executed to counter the consequences of COPD hospitalizations.

The COPD comprehensive case management program encompassing patient education, follow-ups, and home visits significantly reduces the length of hospital stay as well as readmission rates among COPD patients (Alshabanat et al., 2017). Consequently, nurse leaders should implement the program to improve the overall quality of care for COPD patients.

The second article was a systemic review and meta-analysis investigating the impact of health coaching on hospital readmissions and health-related quality of life among COPD patients. This systemic review and meta-analysis demonstrated that implementation of health coaching, a self-management intervention comprising of goal setting, motivational interviewing, and COPD-related health education, exceptionally reduces hospital readmissions and improves the health-related quality of life among COPD patients (Long et al., 2019).

Nurse leaders should establish the most effective health coaching components and delivery modality to accrue its benefits among COPD patients. The final article looked into the role of respiratory care education in reducing readmissions in COPD patients. This research conducted at Houston Methodist Hospital exhibited that respiratory care education in COPD patients remarkably reduces hospital readmissions (RajtakMuller & Berger, 2018). NR 601 Week 2 COPD Case Study Part 2

However, offering respiratory education to COPD patients should be a multidisciplinary approach with nurses as active and critical participants. Subsequently, nurse leaders should consider a multidisciplinary task force including respiratory therapists in the identification, development, and implementation of a care plan that educates the patients as well as their families on COPD as a disease process.

Task #2 – Reference Page

In this part of the Information Retrieval Paper, you will create the reference page for the entire paper in APA format.

Directions:

  • Develop the reference page for your Information Retrieval Paper. Make sure that references are: NR 601 Week 2 COPD Case Study Part 2
