11 Diabetes Nanda Nursing Diagnosis

11 Diabetes Nanda Nursing Diagnosis

Diabetes mellitus, or simply diabetes, is a group of metabolic diseases in which a person has high blood sugar, either because the pancreas does not produce enough insulin, or because cells do not respond to the insulin that is produced.[2] This high blood sugar produces the classical symptoms of polyuria (frequent urination), polydipsia (increased thirst) and polyphagia (increased hunger).

There are three main types of diabetes mellitus (DM).

Type 1 DM results from the body's failure to produce insulin, and presently requires the person to inject insulin or wear an insulin pump. This form was previously referred to as "insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus" (IDDM) or "juvenile diabetes".
Type 2 DM results from insulin resistance, a condition in which cells fail to use insulin properly, sometimes combined with an absolute insulin deficiency. This form was previously referred to as non insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) or "adult-onset diabetes".
The third main form, gestational diabetes occurs when pregnant women without a previous diagnosis of diabetes develop a high blood glucose level. It may precede development of type 2 DM.


Common nursing diagnosis found in Diabetes Mellitus

Imbalanced Nutrition: More than Body Requirements, Fear, Risk for Injury, Activity Intolerance, Deficient Knowledge, Risk for Impaired Skin Integrity, Ineffective Coping, Deficient knowledge (diagnosis and treatment), Disturbed sensory perception: Visual, tactile, Imbalanced nutrition: Less than body requirements, Impaired urinary elimination, Ineffective tissue perfusion: Renal, cardiopulmonary, peripheral, Risk for infection, Sexual dysfunction

4 Pneumonia Nursing Diagnosis

4 Pneumonia Nursing Diagnosis

What are the nursing diagnosis for pneumonia


Impaired gas exchange related to effects of alveolar-capillary membrane changes.


Ineffective airway clearance related to effects of infection, excessive tracheobronchial secretions, fatigue and decreased energy, chest discomfort and muscle weakness.


Clients with pneumonia may have one or more of the following:

Acute pain related to the effects of inflammations of parietal pleura, coughing

Deficient fluid volume related to increased respiratory rate.

Deficient fluid volume related to fever, infection and increased metabolic rate.

Disturbed sleep pattern related to pain, dyspnea, unfamiliar environment (hospitalization).

Potential for pleural effusion.
