Doug has been seen in the ER for his anxiety that has escalated to a panic attack. He thought he was dying because his symptoms were very similar to a heart attack with tingling in his fingers, pain in his chest, and difficulty breathing. He was even starting to feel out of sorts due to his lack of oxygen related to his low SPO2 levels related to his hyperventilation. In class we discussed it being caused by respiratory alkalosis. In the left column there are items that will require follow up by either the nurse or Doug to maintain a successful plan of care upon discharge. If they are for the nurse she must educate Doug, if they are for Doug, he must comply with the plan...either way if they require follow up, place a check in the FOLLOW UP Column, if they don't place a check in the N/A Column. Each item will have one check in one of the columns.
