Document Content and Description Below
SEPSIS CASE STUDY- Betty Louise-Betty Louise is an 82-year-old female who has been feeling more fatigued for the last couple days and has had a fever for the last 24 hours. She reports feeling full mo... re often and has noticed a pink tinge in her urine when she urinates. She denies dysuria but admits to an increase in urinary frequency for over a week. Her daughter brought her to the emergency department (ED) when her mom did not know what day it was and could not tell her if she had eaten or drank anything all day. Currently, Betty Louise is alert and has no history of dementia. Social History: Betty Louise lives at home. She is widowed and has a son and daughter who are actively involved with her on a daily basis. When her daughter, who is an RN, stopped by today, Betty Louise had a dizzy spell and fell into the side of the closet door hitting her elbow hard enough to cause a skin tear and bleeding. She did not hit her head, only her elbow, but had to sit down because she remained dizzy. [Show More]
