Nursing Care Plan for Dengue

This nursing care plan is for a 12-year-old male patient admitted with dengue fever and epigastric pain. The nursing diagnosis identified acute pain and discomfort related to dengue. Interventions included establishing rapport, monitoring vital signs and intake/output, observing the patient's pain level, teaching relaxation techniques, and administering medication as needed. The expected outcome was that the patient would report relief of pain and be able to demonstrate relaxation skills to help cope with discomfort within 8 hours.
