Classifying Altered Elimination
Bowel Dysfunction
alteration of neuromuscular function
electrolyte imbalance
contractile function
peritonitis
reduced activity in large intestine
delay in stool elimination
manifestations
distention of abdomen
gas pain
constipation
treatment
manifestations
pain
pressure
nausea/vomiting
edema
fever
distention
lab findings
increased hematocrit
ketosis, acidosis
hypokalemia, hypochloremia
mechanisms
increased fiber for diarrhea
increased fluids
exercise
electrical stimulation
surgery
pharmacological methods
alteration of patency
gas pain
obstruction
tumors
polyps
impacted feces
pressure exceeding tissue
perforation
distention of abdomen
alteration of motility
impact large intestine
increase
impair nutrition (insufficient nutrient and water absorption)
decrease
prolonged storage time (loss of nutrition and water and waste may return to bloodstream)
manifestations
constipation
IBS
diarrhea
gastroparesis
Urinary Dysfunction
Alterations of motility
stasis of filtrate in renal tubules
stasis of urine in bladder
occurs due to low flow rate, sodium concentration and low pH
Leads to
bacterial infections
favoring of precipitation
blockages
Glomerulonephritis
RBC trapping presence
Acute tubular necrosis
sloughing of tubular cells
pyelonephritis
abundant WBC presence
Treatment
first identify manifestations
signs/symptoms

physical examination
review medical history
diagnostic testing
administration of supplemental fluids
control fluid balance
diuretics
pharmacological methods
Alterations of neuromuscular function
urinary retention
incotinence
impairment of PNS and CNS
impairment of AP to transduction of nerve impulse
Alterations of patency
obstruction
ischemia
necrosis
renal failure
Alterations of perfusion
inadequate arterial blood supply
infarction
ischemia
decreased oxygen --> renal damage
Define
Elimination is once nutrients have been extracted from foods and liquids ingested, they are excreted from the body
Normal urinary function
regulation of body fluid and balance between acids and bases via kidney
once nutrients are absorbed, fluid and waste secretion occur via urine from bladder through the urethra
