Nursing Care Plan Patient's Name: L. Fajardo Age: 19 Y.O Address

1. The nursing care plan is for a 19-year-old male patient named L. Fajardo who is experiencing decreased cardiac output related to altered heart contractility as evidenced by pulmonary congestion and cardiomegaly. 2. The plan includes monitoring the patient's vital signs, administering medications and supplemental oxygen as needed, and instructing the patient on effective coughing and deep breathing to clear airways and facilitate oxygen delivery. 3. The desired short-term outcomes are for the patient to report decreased episodes of dyspnea and angina, participate in activities that reduce cardiac workload, and display stable vital signs within acceptable limits with no dysrhythmias or symptoms of heart failure.
