Impaired Physical Mobility

The patient has impaired physical mobility related to neuromuscular impairment, as evidenced by an inability to move independently and limited range of motion. After 4 hours of nursing intervention, the patient was able to demonstrate techniques to resume activities and maintain position and skin integrity without contractures, foot drops, or decubitus. The nursing interventions included assessing immobility, monitoring nerve function, maintaining an exercise program, preventing venous stasis and foot drop, and providing skin care and safety education to improve circulation and prevent accidents.
