Primary Diagnosis
•Anasarca: massive edema. ▫Edema occurs when fluid accumulates in
body cavities or extracellular tissue spaces. fluid buildup in the tissue around the body.
▫May be d/t kidney disease, acute glomerulonephritis (related to acute renal failure), thyroid disease, some medications, and other diagnoses.
▫MNT: sodium and fluid restriction, diuretics. ▫ Input and output should be monitored to
note any decrease in fluid retention.
Secondary Diagnoses• Lower extremity cellulitis and lymphedema:• Lower extremity cellulitis:▫ Inflammatory response, often d/t S. aureus or S. pyogenes infection▫ Typically occurs on lower limbs. Painful swelling, blisters / ulcers▫ Risk factors: obesity, skin trauma / wounds, leg ulcers, foot fungal infections▫ Tx: elevate the leg, keep the area clean, pain relievers, antibiotics
• Lymphedema: ▫ Poor lymph drainage (from leg)▫ Secondary d/t an existing infection▫ Symmetrical lymphedema: typically d/t low albumin, kidney disease▫ Tx: compression, leg elevation, manual drainage
Additional History
•Hypothyroidism
•COPD•GERD•Osteoporosis•Pressure ulcer•Hypokalemia•UTI
• Hx blunt head trauma• ARF• Asthma: acute
exacerbation
• Anxiety
• Spinal stenosis
• Eczema
• Legally blind• Intractable L. ankle
Significant Medications• Protein powder: 1 scoop BID• Lasix: Antihypertensive loop diuretic. ▫ Depletes potassium, can increase blood glucose
• Synthroid: Thyroid hormone▫ May increase glucose levels, grapefruit interaction, do not take with calcium
supplements• Actonel: Osteoporosis treatment▫ Calcium intake should be 1500 mg, Vitamin D intake 800 IU
• Vitamin D3: Calcium regulator▫ Can cause increased thirst, dry mouth▫ Use caution with decreased renal or cardiac function
• Serevent: Asthma, COPD treatment▫ Can cause hypokalemia, stomach ache, N/V, throat irritation, decreased salivation
• Lactulos, Miralax, Colace : Stool softeners/ laxatives

Amounts are in cc
Dietary Data
•Appetite: eats 75-100% of meals•No snacks•No allergies•Current diet order: NAS, 1500 cc fluid▫1 scoop protein powder BID
Nutrition Diagnosis
PES: Increased protein needs related to leg cellulitis and lymphedema as evidenced by albumin (1.9 gm/dL).
Dietary intervention adjustments:• Increased protein needs (1.5 g/kg adjusted body wt)•Monitor sodium 2000 mg/day or less•Monitor calcium to meet 1200 mg/day
Intervention
•Follow up:▫Patient knowledgeable about need for protein
Asks for double portions of meat for some meals Eats an egg daily Protein powder with applesauce BID
▫Fluid restriction – Avoiding Xerostomia: Eats oranges slowly morning and night Mints, gum Sips water slowly
•Re-educate staff on supplement preparation
