INTRODUCTION
I. Introduction Pediatric community-acquired pneumonia (PCAP) Pneumonia is a general term that refers to an infection of the lungs, which can be caused by a variety of microorganisms, including viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites. Pneumonia is the infection of the pulmonary tissue, including the interstitial spaces, the alveoli, and the bronchioles. Pneumonia can be community-acquired or hospitalacquired. Community acquired pneumonia occurs either in the community setting or within the first 48 hours after hospitalization or institutionalization. Pneumonia is caused by a number of infectious agents, including viruses, bacteria and fungi. The most common are: Streptococcus pneumoniae the most common cause of bacterial pneumonia in children; Haemophilusinfluenzae type b (Hib) the second most common cause of bacterial pneumonia; respiratory syncytial virus is the most common viral cause of pneumonia. Environmental Risk Factors include: indoor air pollution caused by cooking and heating with biomass fuels (such as wood or dung), living in crowded homes, parental smoking. Signs and Symptoms vary depending on the age of the child and the cause of the pneumonia, but common ones include: fever, chills, cough, nasal congestion, unusually rapid breathing (in some cases, this is the only symptom), breathing with grunting or wheezing sounds, labored breathing that makes the rib muscles retract (when muscles under the ribcage or between ribs draw inward with each breath) and causes nasal flaring, vomiting, chest pain, abdominal pain, loss of appetite (in older kids) or poor feeding (in infants), which may lead to dehydration, in extreme cases, bluish or gray color of the lips and fingernails. Incidence: Pneumonia is the single largest cause of death in children worldwide. Every year, it kills an estimated 1.2 million children under the age of five years, accounting for 18% of all deaths of children under five years old worldwide. Pneumonia affects children and families everywhere, but is most prevalent in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa.

Physical assessment
Erik Erikson Stages of psychosocial development Early Childhood (2 to 3 years) Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt Toilet Training-Children need to develop a sense of personal control over physical skills and a sense of independence. Success leads to feelings of autonomy, failure results in feelings of shame and doubt.
Anal Stage: Age Range 1 to 3 years old The child begins to toilet train, which brings about the child's fascination in the erogenous zone of the anus. The erogenous zone is focused on the bowel and bladder control. Therefore, Freud believed that the libido was mainly focused on controlling the bladder and bowel movements. The anal stage coincides with the start of the childs ability to control their anal sphincter, and therefore their ability to give or withhold gifts at will. If the children during this stage can overcome the conflict it will result in a sense of accomplishment and independence.

The childs health is fair as describe by the mother but now its already poor. She said that in maintaining the childs health she provided the child with nutritious food as much as possible and giving all the needs of the child like nice dress and proper hygiene. She gave the child time to play with other kids. The childs immunization was complete. The child was admitted to the hospital because of cough fever for 2 weeks. The mother know the real cause of the illness because the yaya has cough and cold. It began on July 22, 2010 in the child was warm to touch. Patient was given Cefexime 2.5 ml and cetirizine 2.5 ml which give temporary relief. One day prior to admission suddenly experienced fever, temperature maximum of 39 degree Celsius, patient was
given Paracetamol suppository which gave temporary relief, associated with appearance of petechial rashes on the periorbital area. Persistence of the symptom, prompted to have the admission. The child was hospitalized last August 2012 because of cough as stated by her grandmother. They expect that the child will get well soon as soon as possible so that the child will not suffer from staying in the hospital. During her pregnancy, the mother had her complete pre-natal check-up during her pregnancy stage. She did not take any medications & no complications during pregnancy.
2.
The childs appetite is usually good but upon hospitalization the childs appetite is poor. She doesnt like to eat fruits and vegetables. They were not fond of going to fast food or restaurants.
3.

The child defecates once a day, usually every morning with soft, brown, formed & moderate in amount stool. She was toilet trained. The child doesnt have any problems in his urination. He doesnt have any trouble in his skin.
4.
Sleep-Rest Pattern
The child usually sleeps 9pm & wakes at 8am. She sleeps 11 hours a day with naps. The childs usual sleep routine was singing with his parents and listening bedtime stories. She had no usual sleep pattern problem. 5. Activity-Exercise Pattern
Walks with steady gait, runs with few falls, walks on toes, stands on one foot, jumps, kicks ball, throws ball overhand. The child could eat using spoon and fork with assistance. She doesnt want to be helped. The child needs help in toileting since she doesnt know where to defecate and urinate. She defecates and urinates on their comfort room. The child needs help to dress by herself, bath and brush his teeth.
The child watches TV for more than an hour she loves to watch cartoons. She watches with his parents. She was prohibited watching action movies to avoid being violent when he grows up.
6.
Cognitive-Perceptual Pattern
The child did not have any sensory perception deficits. She was 2 years old. She is a smart child
7.
The mother feels bad about her childs illness and she was concerned about the wellness of the child. The child verbalizes that he feels restless.
8.
The child uses appropriate words for his age. Spoken language in their home is Tagalog and English. The child has one sibling. She was the youngest. Both the childs parents do the decision making and in disciplining the child. There was no marital problem and violence in the family.
9.
Sexuality-Reproductive Pattern The child did not verbalize any sexual curiosity according to her mother.
10.
The child needs to learn to decide for himself and if greater decisions are to be made she should ask approval from his parents. There were no losses for the past year. When the child is stress he turns to her mother. When the child was frustrated he plays with her toys. She was not afraid of her mother and always try things that she is not familiar of. 11. Value-Belief Pattern
The whole family was Roman Catholic as claimed by the mother. The mother just likes to be prayed for her childs wellness.
Respiratory System
Nose or Nasal Cavity As air passes through the nasal cavities it is warmed and humidified, so that air that reaches the lungs is warmed and moist. The Nasal airways are lined with cilia and kept moist by mucous secretions. The combination of cilia and mucous helps to filter out solid particles from the air a Warm and moisten the air, which prevents damage to the delicate tissues that form the Respiratory System. The moisture in the nose helps to heat and humidify the air, increasing the amount of water vapour the air entering the lungs contains. This helps to keep the air entering the nose from drying out the lungs and other parts of our respiratory system. When air enters the respiratory system through the mouth, much less filtering is done. It is generally better to take in air through the nose. To review: The nose does the following: 1. 2. 3. Filters the air by the hairs and mucous in the nose Moistens the air Warms the air
Pharynx The pharynx is also called the throat. As we saw in the digestive system, the epiglottis closes off the trachea when we swallow. Below the epiglottis is the larynx or voice box. This contains 2 vocal cords, which vibrate when air passes by them. With our tongue and lips we convert these vibrations intospeech. The area at the top of the trachea, which contains the larynx, is called the glottis. Trachea The trachea or windpipe is made of muscle and elastic fibres with rings of cartilage. The cartilage prevents the tubes of the trachea from collapsing. The trachea is divided or branched into bronchi and then into smaller bronchioles. The bronchioles branch off into alveoli. Bronchi Similar to trachea with ciliated mucous membrane and hyaline cartilage. Lower end of trachea divides into right and left this. Bronchioles Thinner walls of smooth muscle, lined with ciliated epithelium. Subdivision of bronchi.At the end, alveolar duct and cluster of alveoli. Lungs The lungs are spongy structure where the exchange of gases takes place. Each lung is surrounded by a pair of pleural membranes. Between the membranes is pleural fluid, which reduces friction while breathing. The bronchi are divided into about a million bronchioles. The ends of the bronchioles are hollow air sacs called alveoli. There are over 700 million alveoli in the lungs. This greatly increases the surface area through which gas exchange occurs. Surrounding the alveoli are capillaries. The lungs give up their oxygen to the capillaries through the alveoli. Likewise, carbon dioxide is taken from the capillaries and into the alveoli.

CUES
PROBLEM
SCIENTIFIC REASON Ineffective airway clearance occurs when an artificial airway is used because normal mucociliary transport mechanisms are bypassed and impaired.
DESIRED OUTCOME Short term goal: After 6 hours of Nursing Intervention, the Patient breathes without using nasal flaring. Long term goal: After 3 days of nursing intervention the patient breathes normally.
INTERVENTION/ RATIONALE Independent: Auscultate breath sounds. Note adventitious breath sounds like wheezes, crackles and rhonchi. Rationale: Some degree of bronchospasm is present with obstructions in airway and may or may not be manifested in adventitious breath sounds. Keep environmental pollution to a minimum like dust, smoke and feather pillows, according to individual situation. Rationale: Precipitators of allergic type of respiratory reactions
EVALUATION STANDARD CRITERIA Outcomes partially met, the patient was able to demonstrate behavior to improved airway clearance
Objective: Nasal Flaring Abnormal breath sounds. (crackles) Productive cough (transparent) V/S taken as follows: RR-35
The patient will be able to breathes without nasal flaring with RR of 35bpm to 28bpm
that can trigger or exacerbate onset of acute episode. Encourage or assist with abdominal or pursed lip breathing exercises. Rationale: Provides patient with some means to cope with or control dyspnea and reduce air tapping. Assist with measures to improve effectiveness of cough effort. Rationale: Coughing is most effective in an upright position after chest percussion. Position appropriately and discourage use of oil-based products
around nose. Rationale: To prevent vomiting with aspiration into lungs. Obtain sputum specimen, preferable before antimicrobial therapy is initiated. Rationale: To verify appropriateness of therapy.
COLLABORATIVE: Administered analgesics. Rationale: To improve cough when pain is inhibiting effort.
CUES
PROBLEM
SCIENTIFIC REASON The patients immune system is not fully activated until sometime after birth. Limitation in the patients inflammatory response result in failure to recognize, localize, and destroy invasive bacteria thus, increasing risk for infection

Place patient in isolette/ isolation room per hospital policy placing the patient in an isolette allows close observation of the ill neonate & protects other patient from infection 5. maintain neutral thermal
environment A neutral thermal environment decreases the metabolic needs of the patient. The patient has difficulty maintaining a stable temp 6. Provide respiratory support (oxygen) resp. support may be needed during the acute phase of the infection to prevent additional physiological stress 7. Monitor lab results as obtained. Notify care giver/ physician of abnormal findings lab results provide information about the pathogen and patients response to illness and
treatment 8. administer IV fluids as ordered (D10IMB) IV fluids help maintain fluid balance 9. Administer antibiotics as ordered. Antibiotics act to inhibit the growth of bacteria and destruction of bacteria.

SCIENTIFIC REASON Fluid volume deficit, or hypovolemia, occurs from a loss of body fluid or the shift of fluids into the third space, or from a reduced fluid intake. Common sources for fluid loss are the gastrointestinal tract, polyuria, and increased perspiration. Fluid volume deficit may be an acute or chronic condition managed in the hospital outpatient center, or home
DESIRED OUTCOME Short term goal:After 8 hrs of nursing interventionthe patient will demonstrate fluid balance evidenced by individually appropriate parameters, e.g., moist mucous membranes, good skin turgor, prompt capillary refill, stable vital signs. Long term goal:After several days of nursing intervention the patient will experience fluid
INTERVENTION/ RATIONALE 1. Assess vital sign changes, e.g., increased temperature/p rolonged fever, tachycardia, orthostatic hypotension. Elevated temperature/ prolonged fever increases metabolic rate and fluid loss through evaporation. Orthostatic BP changes and increasing tachycardia
