Question Answered step-by-step for the scenario you will need to find an acceptable and comparabletherapy for the patient to satisfy their needs based off of their history, diagnosis and the therapy they have been receiving as an inpatient in the hospital. Provide modification and reason for the modificationScenario 1: Mr. Frank has been admitted to the hospital 3 times in the last 5 months; all admissions have been related to secretion complications. The first admission last October was for bronchitis; the second admission, which occurred in November, was for pneumonia; the third admission in early February was for severe shortness of breath (he was found to have significant atelectasis from a mucus plug). During his hospital stay Mr. Frank has been receiving SVN treatment of albuterol, ipratropium bromide and dornase alfa Q4 hours while in the hospital. He has also been receiving percussive therapy via the Vest system Q 8 hours. Mr. Frank is scheduled to be discharged in 2 days, but during his discharge planning meeting it is brought up that his insurance will not cover either the dornase alfa or Vest system at home. The team looks to you to suggest acceptable substitutes to his therapies to control his secretions and prevent readmission. Health Science Science Nursing Share QuestionEmailCopy link Comments (0)
