    The document details a patient admitted to the hospital for pneumonia with an ineffective airway. The nursing diagnosis identifies ineffective airway clearance related to increased sputum production from pneumonia. The expected outcome is for the patient to have an effective cough and clear lung sounds by a target date, and the prioritized interventions include assessing respiration, listening to lung sounds, treating with prescribed medications, elevating the head of the bed, increasing fluids, and teaching proper breathing and cough techniques.
