Nursing diagnosis burning cramplike pain in epigastrium and abdomen ; pain onset 1-2 hr after meals with gastric ulcer ; pain onset 2-4 hr after meals
(midmorning, mid efternoon) and middle night with duodenal ulcer

results in decreased acid production and reduction in pain
 Institute and modify pain control measures of the basis of the
patient’s response so that management can be individualized

Nausea related to acute exacerbaton of disease process as evidenced by episodes of nausea and/or vomiting (see NCP Nausea and
Nursing diagnosis vomiting )
Collaborative Problems
Potential Complications : hemorrhage secondary to eroded mucosal tissue
Nursing diagnosis
Patient goal hemorrhage secondary to eroded mucosal tissue

Nursing Interventions and Rationales Nursing Goals
 Assess for evidence of hematemesis, bright red or melena stool,  Monitor for signs of hemorrhage
abdominal pain or discomfort symptoms of shock (e.g decreased  Carry out appropriate medical and nursing interventions if hemorrhage
blood pressure, cool, clammy skin, dyspnea, tachycardia, occurs
decreased urine output) to plan appropriate interventions
 If ulcer is actively bleeding, observe NG tube aspirate or emesis
for amount and color to assess degree of bleeding
 Take vital sign every 15-30 min to determine patient’s
hemodynamic status and as indicators of shock
 Maintain IV infusion line to provide ready access for blood and
fluid replacement
 If RBC transfusion is given, observe for transfusion reaction so
appropriate actions can be taken immediately
 Monitor hematocrit and hemoglobin every 4-6 hr during active
bleeding as indicators of severity of hemorrhage and need for
fluid and blood replacement (in early phase of bleeding,
hematocrit may be falsely high or low)
 Record intake and output to monitor fluid balance
 Reassure patient and family to decrease their anxiety
 Remain calm and confident in plan of care to foster calm and
confidence in patient and family
