Admitting Dx (Cite References) Medical, Surgical, Social
History and OB History
Pt had prior pre-term delivery, client had an induced delivery with
Pitocin at term of 40weeks and 3 days. Baby was born vaginally
with vacuum assisted and weight 9lbs and 2oz. Client had an
episiotomy done due to prolonged/hypotonic UCs and macrocosmic
baby delivered. Client had lost >500mL of blood loss due to
dysfunctional labor and exhaustion. Newborn APGAR score was 9
and indicative of term baby. Admitting Dx is:
Hypotonic Uterine dysfunction- when pressure of UC is
insufficient (IUPC pressure <25mm Hg) to promote cervical dilation
and effacement (Durham and Chapman, 2019).
Induction of labor-labor that’s deliberately stimulation of UCs
before the onset of spontaneous labor to facilitate a vaginal delivery
(Durham and Chapman, 2019).
Dystocia- abnormal labor that results from abnormalities of the
powers, passenger, or passage (Durham and Chapman, 2019).
Dysfunctional labor- abnormal UCs that prevent the normal
progress of cervical dilation or descent of the fetus (Durham and
Chapman, 2019).
Oxytocin – a Uterotonic drug, that stimulates smooth muscle
producing intermittent contractions (Durham and Chapman, 2019).

Erickson’s Developmental Stage Related to pt. & Cite
References (1)
In Erickson’s theory of development, P.J is in the
“Intimacy vs Isolation,” ages 19-40. A period of conflicts,
loving relationships with others and success leads to
fulfilling relationships (Slater, 2003). P.J. has many friends
who lives near her and lots of family around her living
status. Friends are very supportive and love to drop by to
visit P.J. This means she has strong, successful relations
with friends and family, leading towards success at
resolving conflicts though she just had a term baby with
complications throughout her labor and delivery, she is
motivated to be a good mother.
Patient Education (In Pt.) & Discharge Planning (home need) 1
Patient is being discharged 10/14/2018. Did not experienced trouble getting
the baby to latch but was given lactation consult. The dietician was
consulted to give proper teaching about losing weight that was gained during
the pregnancy and diet to follow to help restore body image and healing was
due to the vaginal delivery. Patient was given consult by the physician about
medication and importance of mobility. Following are discharge instructions
about signs to notify the physician. Fever greater than 100.4 F for 2 or more
days. Check for vaginal discharge with large clots, increased amount of
bleeding, change to previous lochia color, any bright red bleeding even after
10 days and any foul odor. Report any incision pain or episiotomy pain that
does not resolve with analgesics, foul-smelling discharge, normal lochia
flow patterns, any unusual edema. No heavy lifting for next 3 weeks. Do not
lift anything other than the infant. Do not sit with legs crossed for a prolong
time to prevent thrombophlebitis. Limit stair climbing for next few weeks.
Perineal area should be cleaned front to the back after each voiding and
bowel movement. Blot dry after each wash. Rest when the infant is sleeping
(Durham & Chapman, 2019)
