NSG 6440 Week 6 Discussion
Discussion:
This week’s content discussed common psychiatric disorders in the Adult and Older Adult client. Often times a secondary diagnosis is masked due to their psychiatric disorder. Review the following case study and answer the following questions.
Mr. White is a 72-year-old man, with a history of hypertension, COPD and moderate dementia, who presents with 4 days of increased confusion, nighttime restlessness, visual hallucinations, and urinary incontinence. His physical exam is unremarkable except for tachypnea, a mildly enlarged prostate, inattentiveness, and a worsening of his MMSE score from a baseline of 18 to 12 today.
Mr. White’s presentation is most consistent with an acute delirium (acute change in cognition, perceptual derangement, waxing and waning consciousness, and inattention).
- What is the most likely diagnosis to frequently cause acute delirium in patients with dementia?
- What additional testing should you consider if any?
- What are treatment options to consider with this patient?
Submission Details:
- Post your response to the Discussion Area by the due date assigned. Respond to atleast two posts by the end of the week.
