Scenario: A bowel resection was done 3 days agoto treat an abscess caused by diverticulitis. The patient now has atemporary colostomy to divert stool from the inflamed bowel andallow it to rest and heal. The patient is drowsy but awakens easilywith verbal stimuli. Vital signs are all stable. He states he ismaintaining his pain at 3/10 without activity (on a 0-10 painintensity scale), which he says is a manageable level, by using hispatient-controlled analgesia (PCA) pump sparingly. He reports thatas long as he does not move his pain is manageable. He is hesitantto do anything that causes increased pain and does not like to usehis PCA due to his fear of addiction. His stoma is located on hisleft lower quadrant and is rosy red. There is a scant amount ofdrainage in his colostomy pouch. His abdominal dressing is cleanand dry. He is voiding adequate amounts of urine and is NPO. He hasa nasogastric tube to low intermittent suction. He is receivingLactated Ringer’s solution via a peripheral IV.
