Cues/Needs Nursing Diagnosis Scientific Explanation Goals and Objectives Nursing Intervention Rationale Evaluation Short Term Independent Short Term

The document discusses constipation in Parkinson's disease patients. It provides the nursing diagnosis of constipation due to medication and reduced activity. The causes of constipation in Parkinson's are multifaceted, including physical weakness, lifestyle risks like low fluid intake, and side effects of medications. Nursing interventions include encouraging fluid intake, fiber consumption, daily activity, and sitz baths. The short term goals are for the patient to understand causes and interventions, state relief from discomfort, and maintain normal stool passage. The long term goal is for the patient to demonstrate lifestyle changes to prevent recurrence and know what actions to take if problems reoccur.
