Ineffective airway clearance related to increased amount or viscosity of secretionsas evidenced byChanges in rate and depth of respirationAbnormal breath soundsIneffective coughDyspnea
At the end of 8 hours, the patient WillDemonstrate patent airway, with fluid secretions easily expectorated
Intervention Rationale
1. Auscultated chest for character of breath sounds and presence of secretions.
2. Assist client with and provide instruction in effective deep breathing, coughing in upright position (sitting), and splinting of incision.
3. Observe amount and character of sputum and aspirated secretions. Investigate changes, as indicated.
Noisy respirations, rhonchi, and wheezes are indicative of retained secretions or airway obstruction.
Upright position favors maximal lung expansion, and splinting improves force of cough effort to mobilize and remove secretions. Splinting may be done by nurse placing hands anteriorly and posteriorly over chest wall and by client, with pillows, as strength improves
Increased amounts of colorless (or blood-streaked) or watery secretions are normal initially and should decrease as recovery progresses.

INTERVENTION
1. Determine pain history, for example, location of
pain, frequency, duration, and intensity using a
rating scale (scale of 0–10), or verbal rating scale
—“no pain” to “excruciating pain”; and
relief measures used. Believe client’s report.

2. Determine timing and precipitants of “breakthrough” pain when using around-the-clock agents, whether oral, intravenous (IV), topical, transmucosal, epidural, or patch medications.
2. Evaluate painful effects of particular therapies, such as surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, or biotherapy. Provide information to client and SO about what to expect.

1. Monitor daily food intake and have client keep food diary, as indicated. .
2. Measure height, weight, and skinfold thickness, or other anthropometric measurements, as appropriate. Ascertain amount of recent weight loss. Weigh daily or as indicated.
3. Assess skin and mucous membranes for pallor, delayed wound healing, and enlarged parotid glands.
4. Encourage client to eat high-calorie, nutrient-rich diet, with adequate fluid intake. Encourage
