- INTRODUCTION Schizophrenia is a psychotic disorder (or a group of disorders) marked by severely impaired thinking, emotions, and behaviors. Schizophrenic patients are typically unable to filter sensory stimuli and may have enhanced perceptions of sounds, colors, and other features of their environment. Most schizophrenics, if untreated, gradually withdraw from interactions with other people, and lose their ability to take care of personal needs and grooming. Clinical Manifestations The symptoms of schizophrenia are divided into two major categories: A. The positive symptoms include: delusions and its types, hallucinations, loose associations and bizarre or disorganized behavior B. The negative symptoms includes: restricted emotions, anhedonia, avolition, alogia, catatonia and social withdrawal. Diagnostic Test
- Clinical diagnosis is developed on historical information and thorough mental status examination. No laboratory findings have been identified that are diagnostic of schizophrenia. Routine battery of laboratory test may be useful in ruling out possible organic etiologies, including CBC, urinalysis, liver function tests, thyroid function test, RPR, HIV test, serum ceruloplasmin ( rules out an inherited disease, wilson’s disease, in which the body retains excessive amounts of copper), PET scan, CT scan, and MRI. Rating scale assessment: Scale for the assessment of negative symptoms. Scale for the assessment of positive symptoms. Brief psychiatric rating scale Treatment A comprehensive treatment program can include: Antipsychotic medication Education & support, for both ill individuals and families Social skills training Rehabilitation to improve activities of daily living Vocational and recreational support Cognitive therapy Nursing Interventions: A. Strengthening Differentiation Provide patient with honest and consistent feedback in a non threatening manner. Avoid challenging the content of patient’s behavior Focus interactions on patient’s behavior. Administer drugs as prescribed while monitoring and documenting patient’s response to drug regimen. Use simple and clear language when speaking with the patient. Explain all procedures, test and activities to patient before starting them B. Promoting Socialization Encourage patient to talk about feelings in the context of a trusting, supportive relationship. Allow patient to reveal delusions to you without engaging in power struggle over the content or the entire reality of the delusions. Use supportive, emphatic approach to focus on patient’s feelings about troubling events or conflicts. Provide opportunities for socialization and encourage participation in group activities.
- Be aware of personal space and use touch judiciously. Help patient to identify behaviors that alienate significant others and family members. C. Ensuring Safety Monitor patient for behaviors that indicate increased anxiety and agitation. Collaborate patient to identify anxious behaviors as well as causes. Establish consistent limits on patients behavior and clearly communicate these limits to patients, family member, and health care providers. Secure all potential weapons and articles from patients room and the unit environment that could be used to inflict injury. Determine the need for external control, including seclusion or restraints. Communicate the decision to patient and put plan into action. Frequently monitor the patient within guidelines of facility’s policy on restrictive devices and assess the patients level of agitation. When patient’s level of agitation begins to decrease and self control regained, establish a behavioral agreement that identifies specific behaviors that indicate self control against are escalation agitation. ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY I. Structures A. The neurologic system consists of two main divisions, the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is composed of both central and peripheral elements. 1. The CNS is composed of the brain and spinal cord. 2. The PNS is composed of the 12 pairs of the cranial nerves and the 31 pairs of the spinal nerves. 3. The ANS is comprised of visceral efferent (motor) and the visceral afferent (sensory) nuclei in the brain and spinal cord. Its peripheral division is made up of visceral efferent and afferent nerve fibers as well as autonomic and sensory ganglia. B. The brain is covered by three membranes. 1. The dura matter is a fibrous, connective tissue structure containing several blood vessels. 2. The arachnoid membrane is a delicate serous membrane. 3. The pia matter is a vascular membrane. C. The spinal cord extends from the medulla oblongata to the lower border of the first lumbar vertebrae. It contains millions of nerve fibers, and it consists of 31 nerves – 8 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, and 5 sacral. D. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) forms in the lateral ventricles in the choroid plexus of the pia matter. It flows through the foramen of Monro into to the third ventricle, then through the aqueduct of Sylvius to the fourth ventricle. CSF exits the fourth ventricle by the foramen of Magendie and the two foramens of Luska. It then flows into the cistema magna, and finally it circulates to the subarachnoid
- space of the spinal cord, bathing both the brain and the spinal cord. Fluid is absorbed by the arachnoid membrane. II. Function A. CNS 1. Brain The cerebrum is the center for consciousness, thought, memory, sensory input, and motor activity; it consists of two hemispheres (left and right) and four lobes, each with specific functions. The frontal lobe controls voluntary muscle movements and contains motor areas, including the area for speech; it also contains the centers for personality, behavioral, autonomic and intellectual functions and those for emotional and cardiac responses. The temporal lobe is the center for taste, hearing and smell, and in the brain’s dominant hemisphere, the center for interpreting spoken language. The parietal lobe coordinates and interprets sensory information from the opposite side of the body. The occipital lobe interprets visual stimuli. The thalamus further organizes cerebral function by transmitting impulses to and from the cerebrum. It also is responsible for primitive emotional responses, such as fear, and for distinguishing between pleasant and unpleasant stimuli. Lying beneath the thalamus, the hypothalamus is an automatic center that regulates blood pressure, temperature, libido, appetite, breathing, sleeping patterns, and peripheral nerve discharges associated with certain behavior and emotional expression. It also helps control pituitary secretion and stress reactions. The cerebellum or hindbrain, controls smooth muscle movements, coordinates sensory impulses with muscle activity, and maintains muscle tone and equilibrium. The brain stem, which includes the mesencephalon, pons, and medulla oblongata, relays nerve impulses between the brain and spinal cord. 2. The spinal cord forms a two-way conductor pathway between the brain stem and the PNS. It is also the reflex center for motor activities that do not involve brain control.
- B. The PNS connects the CNS to remote body regions and conducts signals to and from these areas and the spinal cord. C. The ANS regulates body functions such as digestion, respiration, and cardiovascular function. Supervised chiefly by the hypothalamus, the ANS contains two divisions. 1. The sympathetic nervous system serves as an emergency preparedness system, the “flight-for-fight” response. Sympathetic impulses increase greatly when the body is under physical or emotional stress causing bronchiole dilation, dilation of the heart and voluntary muscle blood vessels, stronger and faster heart contractions, peripheral blood vessel constriction, decreased peristalsis, and increased perspiration. Sympathetic stimuli are mediated by norepinephrine. 2. The parasympathetic nervous system is the dominant controller for most visceral effectors for most of the time. Parasympathetic impulses are mediated by acetylcholine.

- bradycardia patient has been on maintenance therapy LIST OF IDENTIFIED PROBLEMS ACCORDING TO PRIORITY 1. Disturbed thought processes related to inability to trust evidenced by delusional thinking. 2. Social Isolation related to alteration in mental status 3. Situational low self-esteem related to cognitive impairment NURSING CARE PLAN Assessment Nursing Diagnosis Planning Interventions Rationale Evaluation
- Subjective: Objective: >inability to trust >lack of interest Disturbed thought processes related to inability to trust evidenced by delusional thinking. After 1-2 days of rendering nursing interventions, the patient will be able to develop trusting relationship with nurse Be sincere and honest when communicating with the client. Avoid vague or evasive remarks. Be consistent in setting expectations, enforcing rules, and so forth. Do not make promises that you cannot keep. Encourage the client to talk with you, but do not pry for information. Explain procedures, and try t o be sure the client understands the procedures before carrying them out. Initially, do not argue with the client or try to convince the client that the delusions are false or unreal. Delusional clients are extremely sensitive about others and can recognize insincerity. Evasive comments or hesitation reinforces mistrust or delusions. Clear, consistent limits provide a secure structure for the client. Broken promises reinforce the client’s mistrust of others. Probing increases the client’s suspicion and interferes with the therapeutic relationship. When the client has full knowledge of procedures, he or she is less likely to feel tricked by the staff. Logical argument does not dispel delusional ideas and can interfere with the development of trust After 2 days of rendering nursing interventions, the patient was develop trusting relationship with nurse Assessment Nursing Diagnosis Planning Interventions Rationale Evaluation
- Subjective: Objective: >uncommunicative >seeks to be alone > projects hostility >sad/dull affect Social Isolation related to alteration in mental status After 1-2 days of rendering nursing interventions, client will identify feelings of isolation >establish a therapeutic relationship by being emotionally present and authentic >observe for barriers to social interaction >provide positive reinforcement when the client seeks out others >discuss causes of perceived or actual isolation >being emotionally present and authentic fosters growth in relationships and decrease isolation >adequate information should be gathered so appropriate interventions can be planned >social support contributes to positive well being >the individual’s experience of illness; the circumstances of everyday living that influence a quality of life After 1-2 days of rendering nursing interventions, client will identify feelings of isolation
- Assessment Nursing Diagnosis Planning Interventions Rationale Evaluation Subjective: Objective: > lacking eye contact >little interest in activities >lack of social interaction Situational low self-esteem related to cognitive impairment After 2-3 hours of rendering nursing interventions, the patient will verbalize understanding of things that precipitate current situation and demonstrate behaviors that show positive self- esteem. Encourage client to express honest feelings in relation to loss of prior level of functioning Revise methods for assisting client to express feelings properly. Encourage client’s attempts to communicate. If verbalizations are not understandable, express to client what you think he intended to say. It is necessary to reorient client frequently. Encourage reminiscence and discussion of life review Encourage to participate in activities Offer support and empathy Client may be fixed in anger stage of grieving process, which is turned inward on the self, resulting in diminished self-esteem. To explore the feelings of the client thereby allowing him to acknowledge his own strength and weakness The ability to communicate effectively with others may enhance self-esteem Help client resume progression through the grief process associated with disappointing life events and increase self- esteem Positive feedback from group members will increase self-esteem Focus on accomplishments to lift self-esteem After 3 hours of rendering nursing interventions, the patient was verbalized understanding of things that precipitate current situation and demonstrated behaviors that show positive self-esteem. DISCHARGE PLAN Medication:
