Assessment
Health promotion Identification of people at risk for
osteoporosis and recognition of problems associated with osteoporosis form the basis for nursing assessment
Health history: osteopenia and osteoporosis, family history, previous fractures, dietary consumption of calcium, exercise patterns, onset of menopause, and use of corticosteroids as well as alcohol, smoking, and caffeine intake
Any symptoms the patient is experiencing, such as back pain, constipation, or altered body image, are explored
Physical examination : disclose a fracture, kyphosis of the thoracic spine, or shortened stature.
Problems in mobility and breathing may exist as a result of changes in posture and weakened muscles
Nursing Diagnoses
The major nursing diagnoses for the patient who experiences a spontaneous vertebral fracture related to osteoporosis may include the following:
Deficient knowledge about the osteoporotic process and treatment regimen
Acute pain related to fracture and muscle spasm
Risk for constipation related to immobility or development of illeus (intestinal obstruction)
Risk for injury: additional fractures related to osteoporosis
Planning and Goals
Knowledge about osteoporosis and the treatment regimen
Relief of pain Improved bowel elimination Absence of additional fractures
Nursing Interventions
PROMOTING UNDERSTANDING OF OSTEOPOROSIS AND THE TREATMENT REGIMEN
1. Patient teaching focuses on factors influencing the development of osteoporosis, interventions to arrest or slow the process, and measures to relieve symptoms
Adequate dietary or supplemental calcium and vitamin D, regular weight-bearing exercise, and modification of lifestyle, if necessary (eg, cessation of smoking, reduced use of caffeine and alcohol), help to maintain bone mass
Diet, exercise, and physical activity are the primary keys to developing high-density bones that are resistant to osteoporosis
It is emphasized that all people continue to need sufficient calcium, vitamin D, sunshine, and weight-bearing exercise to slow the progression of osteoporosis
Patient teaching related to medication therapy is important
Because gastrointestinal symptoms and abdominal distention are frequent side effects of calcium supplements, the nurse instructs the patient to take the calcium supplements with meals
Drink adequate fluids to reduce the risk of renal calculi
Medication If HRT (hormone replacement therapy) is
prescribed, the nurse teaches the patient about the importance of compliance and periodic screening for breast and endometrial cancer.
Alendronate requires compliance: it must be taken on an empty stomach with water, and then the patient must not consume foods or liquids or assume a reclining position for 30 to 60 minutes.
Nasal calcitonin is administered daily, alternating the nares. An adequate daily intake of dietary calcium and vitamin D is needed along with these prescribed medications.
RELIEVING PAIN Istirahat dalam posisi supine atau
miring Matras tempat tidur harus kaku dan
tidak kendur. Fleksi lutut relaxing back muscles. Penghangat lokal dan masase ringan
muscle relaxation. Hindari gerakan memutar tubuh,
pindahkan badan secara lurus/ sejajar.
Ajarkan gerakan mekanika tubuh dan postur yang benar
Lumbosacral corset membantu aktivitas
Pasien melanjutkan aktivitasnya sehingga nyeri berkurang.
Vertebroplasty alternatif pilihan
IMPROVING BOWEL ELIMINATION Constipation is a problem related to
immobility and medications. Early institution of a high-fiber diet,
increased fluids, and the use of prescribed stool softeners help to prevent or minimize constipation.
If the vertebral collapse involves the T10–L2 vertebrae, the patient may develop an ileus.
The nurse therefore monitors the patient’s intake, bowel sounds, and bowel activity.
PREVENTING INJURY
Aktivitas fisik memperkuat otot, menjaga keseimbangan, mencegah atropy, mencegah retardasi demineraliasi tulang yg berlebihan
Isometric exercises memperkuat otot Ners meningkatkan kemampuan perawat
dalam berjalan, bodi mekanik dan postur tubuh.
Daily weight-bearing activity dan berjemur sinar matahari meningkatkan kemampuan tubuh untuk memproduksi vitamin D
Hindari aktivitas berat.
