Case: Annette is a 28-year-old, Gravida 4, Para 3, gestational age: 38 weeks. She arrived at the facility one day ago, with complaints of a fever, cough, and shortness of breath for the previous two days. She was admitted into an isolation area in the facility for monitoring and was given oxygen due to her shortness of breath. Upon admission, she was not in labor, and her cervix was 3/50/-1. She was tested for COVID-19 upon admission and was positive. She has been stable for the last 24 hours, is no longer on oxygen, and is wearing a mask.
Annette has been complaining of pain and having contractions for the last 2 hours. 15 minutes ago, her membranes spontaneously ruptured. SVE at the time revealed she is 8/75/0. Meconium stained fluid noted upon rupture of membranes.
Brief Medical History:
6 prenatal care visits
3 vaginal births (has a 6-year-old, 4-year-old, and a 2-year-old)
Current meds:
PNV daily
Folic acid daily
Iron supplementation daily
Acetaminophen 1000mg PO PRN q 6 hours for fever over 100.4
Positive for COVID-19 (diagnosed yesterday)

PROBLEM?BASED CARE PLAN EXAMPLES
The following are examples of how a student may complete a Problem?Based Care Plan using Lippincott Advisor. These examples can be used when creating a care plan for a patient in the clinical setting, while working through a vSim, and incorporating case?based learning such as an Interactive Case Study.
In this example, the student is working through a case study provided by the instructor. The patient is a 78?year?old male admitted for shortness of breath due to a medical diagnosis of heart failure. The student receives the patient’s history and assessment findings to include activity intolerance, but with clear lung sounds and edema to lower extremities. The student is required to create a care plan for this patient. One example uses a traditional care plan with a linear approach and the second example uses a concept map.
Please note these examples are for demonstration purposes. They provide potential responses.

WHAT ASSESSMENT DATA DOES THE NURSE FIND AS PERTINENT (RECOGNIZE CUES)?
Ø Elevated pulse rate (beyond 100)
Ø Fever beyond >100.4°F
Ø Elevated respiratory rate > 30 breaths/min
Ø Low oxygen saturation ((< 93%) Ø SVE 8/75/0 WHAT IS THE DISEASE PROCESS CAUSING THESE ASSESSMENT FINDINGS (ANALYZE CUES)? The patient has a corona virus infection along the respiratory tract and the lungs. The infection is causing an inflammatory response in the endothelial cells and lung tissues, resulting in fever and impaired air passage thus inadequate air supply to the lungs. lung inflammation causes elevated respiratory rate and the low oxygen saturation. The patient is 38 weeks pregnant, and already experiencing cervical contractions, thus the SVE is 8/75/0. WHAT IS THE MAIN PROBLEM WITH THE PATIENT THE NURSE CAN TREAT (PRIORITIZE HYPOTHESES)? Cervical contractions WHAT IS THE GOAL FOR THE PATIENT (GENERATE SOLUTIONS & TAKE ACTION)? CREATE SPECIFIC, MEASURABLE, ACHIEVABLE, REALISTIC, AND TIMETABLE (SMART) OUTCOMES. · The patient will be able to breath with ease by the end of the day · The oxygen saturation levels will improve by the end of the day · The patient will have uneventful vaginal delivery · The risk of transmitting corona virus will be successfully controlled by the end of delivery. WHAT INTERVENTIONS WILL THE NURSE IMPLEMENT WHEN CARING FOR THIS PATIENT (GENERATE SOLUTIONS & TAKE ACTION)? INCLUDE THE EVIDENCE. LIST INTERVENTIONS IN ORDER OF PRIORITY. INCLUDE COLLABORATIVE AND NURSE?INITIATED INTERVENTIONS. Ø Administer oxygen therapy. Rationale: Oxygen therapy increases oxygen saturation and helps to meet cellular needs Ø Monitor the patient vitals regularly Rationale: to assess for deterioration. Ø Put the patient in isolation in a highly ventilated room and provide a mask to wear during the delivery process Rationale: to reduce the risk of transmitting corona virus to the care providers and the baby (Nolan et al., 2020). HOW WILL THE NURSE EVALUATE THE PATIENT’S RESPONSE (EVALUATE OUTCOMES)? AND WHAT WAS THE PATIENT’S RESPONSE TO THE INTERVENTIONS? Ø Monitor the patient’s vitals (oxygen saturation, heart rate, respiration rate, blood pressure and temperature) Ø Observe for signs and symptoms of distress (Trevisanuto et al.,2020).
