Nursing Care Plan for Diabetes Insipidus

The client was experiencing excessive thirst and producing a large volume of dilute urine. The nurse diagnosed the client with a fluid volume deficit based on the subjective and objective assessment findings. The plan was for the client to receive hypotonic intravenous fluids to restore fluid volume at a functional level as evidenced by adequate urinary output, normal vital signs, and good skin turgor. The nurse would independently assess input and output and monitor the client's response.
