Several questions were asked about pain as a diagnosis
of nurse: is an acute pain diagnosis of the nurse or it needs
team work is an acute pain etiologically factor for some other
reaction previously treated by nurse is a pain summary of nurses
diagnoses embracing several of actual diagnoses or high-risk diagnoses
The answers for of all those questions could be positive, depending
of situation. For example: In nursing of patient with acute myocardial
infarction, data should be collected about possible worsening
of patients condition or possible complications, performing some
procedures (opiate analgesia prescript by physician) and in addition
doing usual nursing interventions-relation to patient or patient
education. Role of nurse as described previously, imply that acute
pain is problem for medical team. Some of numerous problems solved
by nurse itself are also diagnoses of nurse. For example: inability
for taking care of oneself, inability of moving, hypoventilation,
disturbances of sleeping.
