Relocation Stress Syndrome - ANS ✓Relocation stress syndrome is a nursing
diagnosis characterized by symptoms such as anxiety, confusion, hopelessness,
and loneliness. It usually occurs in older adults shortly after moving from a
private residence to a nursing home or assisted-living facility.
Pain Symptoms Older Adults - ANS ✓Chronic Pain:
Assessing pain in the older adult population can be challenging. Adults over the
age of 65 experience pain more frequently than do younger adults.
Anticipatory Loss - ANS ✓Anticipatory loss occurs when a person displays loss
and grief behaviors for a loss that has yet to take place. Anticipatory loss is often
seen in the families of patients with serious and life-threatening illnesses and
may lessen the effect of the actual loss of the family member.
DNR Action - ANS ✓To prevent the improper use of cardiopulmonary
resuscitation, which is designed to prevent unexpected death, some health care
providers write Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order, or No Code, on the medical
record of a patient if the patient or surrogate has expressed a wish that there be
no attempts to resuscitate the patient
Cheyne Stokes Respirations - ANS ✓Signs of impending death: Noisy, irregular,
or Cheyne-Stokes respirations
Cheyne-Stokes respiration is an abnormal pattern of breathing characterized by
progressively deeper, and sometimes faster, breathing followed by a gradual
decrease that results in a temporary stop in breathing called an apnea

Hypocalcemia Assessment - ANS ✓Hypocalcemia refers to a calcium deficit in
ECF (serum calcium <8.9 mg/dL, ionized calcium <4.5 mg/dL). Common causes
related to a calcium deficit involve inadequate calcium intake, impaired calcium
absorption, and excessive calcium loss. Manifestations of hypocalcemia include
numbness and tingling of fingers, mouth, or feet; tetany; muscle cramps; and
seizures.
Z-Track Injection - ANS ✓Use the Z-track technique for intramuscular injections
to prevent leakage of medication into the needle track, thus minimizing
discomfort
Many of the drugs given intramuscularly can cause irritation to subcutaneous
tissues when backflow into the tissues occurs along the injection track.
Therefore, the Z-track technique is recommended for all intramuscular injections
(particularly nonvaccine injections) to ensure that medication does not leak back
along the needle track and into the subcutaneous tissue
Insomnia Stress - ANS ✓Insomnia is characterized by difficulty falling asleep,
intermittent sleep, or difficulty maintaining sleep, despite adequate opportunity
and circumstances to sleep
Many cases of insomnia are related to disruptions in circadian rhythms. This
sleep disorder can also occur during periods of stress; in situations involving
some change in the normal environment such as shift work; as a result of pain,
discomfort, or limited mobility; and as a result of the side effects of medications
Identify stress-relieving rituals that enable the patient to fall asleep more easily
Sleep & Exercise - ANS ✓Behavior therapy includes maintaining regular sleep-
wake times, avoiding naps, keeping to a regular exercise routine, and avoiding
caffeine, nicotine, and stimulating activities within several hours of bedtime
Log Rolling - ANS ✓Frequently, a patient cannot turn in bed without assistance.
Nurses need to use their knowledge of correct alignment to turn the patient from
the back onto the side, from the back onto the abdomen, and from the abdomen
onto the back
Mastering this turning technique helps nurses adhere to an every-2-hour turn
schedule for a patient experiencing decreased mobility.
