Nursing Care for Fluid Volume Deficit

The patient was admitted to the hospital due to episodes of loose watery stools with particles and moderate abdominal tenderness, weakness, dry lips, and sunken eyes indicating signs of dehydration and malnutrition from fluid loss. The nursing diagnosis was fluid volume deficit related to active fluid loss from diarrhea. The short-term goal was for the patient to restore normal circulating body fluids by the end of the shift through monitoring, assessment, oral care, encouragement of fluid intake, regulation of IV fluids if needed, and comfort measures. The long-term goal was for the patient to maintain optimal fluid balance and hydration after 1 day of care through decreased diarrhea, less abdominal issues, and normalized appearance.
