RENAL DISORDERS TASK: Create a conceptual map using the case scenarios as guide. Conceptual map should include pathophysiology, medical diagnosis, signs and symptoms, and risk factors, if any. Nursing diagnosis, nursing interventions, medical management (medication and procedures), expected outcomes A 37- year old man with chronic renal failure who was secondary to chronic glomerulonephritis had been on peritoneal dialysis for approximately 6 months without any episode of peritonitis. In December 2019, he was admitted to the hospital for fever, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and cloudy dialysate several hours after eating stinky tofu. The peritoneal effluent culture yielded Aeromonas Sobria. The patient was given levofloxacin for 10 days. The patient symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal pain were relieved and the cloudy effluent turned to be clear. Unfortunately, peritoneal dialysis catheter was blocked because of fibrin clot formation in the setting of inflammation, and finally it was removed.
