Chapter 1: Introduction
I. Objectives
General Objectives
This research focuses on the advancement of our skills in administering and enhance
our understanding regarding to acute pyelonephritis.
Specific Objectives
1. To be able to establish good relationship with the patient,
significant others, staff and member of the health care team.
2. To be able to identify and provide measures to manage the patients
present health problem.
3. To be able to provide a quality nursing care of the patient based on
the prioritization of needs.
4. To prevent complication of Acute Pyelonephritis.
5. To render patients the quality nursing care all throughout the stay
of the patient in the hospital.
6. To understand the structures and normal function of the body organ
involved.
7. To be familiar with the client’s medications that includes the
therapeutic and adverse effects and the significance to the
disease/condition.

hematogenous spread and is less common and usually occurs in patients with ureteral
obstructions or immunocomprised and debilitate patients. Most patients will get acute
pyelonephritis through ascending infection. Ascending infection happens through
several steps. Bacterial will first attach to urethral mucosal wither through
instrumentation or UTI which occur more frequently in females. UTIs are more
common in females than in male due to shorter urethras, hormonal changes, and close
distance to the anus, urinary tract obstruction caused by something such as a kidney
stone can also lead to acute pyelonephritis. An outflow obstruction of urine can lead
to incomplete emptying and urinary stasis which causes bacteria to multiply without
being flushed out. A less common cause of acute pyelonephritis is vesicoureteral
reflux, which is a congenital condition where urine flows backward from the bladder
to the kidneys.
Cognitive
- To initiate specific idea for plan of care and intervention to provide the
needs of the clients primary regarding to any decision or activities
affecting their care based on the assessment of the disease.
Psychomotor
- Apply the nursing process to identify nursing problems and provide the
proper nursing care plan. Assess efficacy of performed nursing
interventions.
- Provide and document important interventions to the client
Affective
- Develop therapeutic communication to the patient and to her family,
practice nice way on how to get along with the patient in respectful and
proper manners.

III. HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS
Last December 2, the patient suddenly experienced pain on the right lower
quadrant of her abdomen wherein she assumes that this is a sign of impending
miscarriage.
After that day, the patient immediately decided to seek health care at Ospital ng
Lungsod ng San Jose Delmonte because she cannot tolerate the pain and also in fear
of losing her child.
During her stay in the hospital, she was admitted and accompanied by her auntie.
They were asked to perform laboratory results such as CBC, U/A, UTZ
She had BCG vaccine and other immunizations were unrecalled. She had 1 dose
of tetanus toxoid and HIV on her pre-natal check ups. Her previous hospitalization is
due to Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) when she was 15, where she had to take
antibiotic. She had no record of blood transfusion prior to her condition. In terms of
psychiatric status, she had no violence, drug overdose, but she once had the idea of
suicidal attempt due to sadness.

III. Review of System
ANATOMY OF THE KIDNEY
28
NURSING CARE OF THE CLIENT WITH ACUTE PYELONEPHRITIS IN PREGNANCY
The kidney, as a major excretory organ, is crucial in maintaining an optimal
internal environment. The kidney eliminates a variety of metabolic products (urea,
uric acid, and creatinine) and conserves and excretes water and electrolytes. It also
stimulates erythrocyte production by producing the erythropoietin.
The kidneys are 11 centimeters long, paired, reddish brown organs situated on the
posterior wall of the abdominal cavity, one on each side of the vertebral column and
capped by the adrenal gland. Due to the presence of the liver, the right kidney is
slightly lower than the left kidney. The kidneys are located between muscles of the
back and the peritoneal cavity.
The functional unit of the kidney is called the nephron. There are approximately 1
million nephrons in each kidney. Each nephron is consisting of two parts: a
glomerulus (a network of capillaries) and a tubule. The tubule is an elongated hollow
duct with the proximal end forming a double walled cap known as the Bowman’s
capsule. Another part of the tubule twists and folds and another straightens after
folding back in itself and yet another one forms characteristic loops. These are the
proximal and distal convoluted tubules and the loop of Henle.
The urinary bladder,a muscular sac in the pelvis, just above and behind the pubic
bone. When empty, the bladder is about the size and shape of a pear.
ANATOMY OF THE URINARY BLADDER
29
NURSING CARE OF THE CLIENT WITH ACUTE PYELONEPHRITIS IN PREGNANCY
Urine is made in the kidneys and travels down two tubes called ureters to the
bladder. The bladder stores urine, allowing urination to be infrequent and controlled.
The bladder is lined by layers of muscle tissue that stretch to hold urine. The normal
capacity of the bladder is 400-600 mL. like the stomach, is an expandable saclike
organ that contracts when it is empty. The inner lining of the bladder tucks into the
folds and expands out to accommodate liquid.
The bladder is connected to the kidneys by two long tubes called ureters. When
urine is produced by the kidneys, it travels down the ureters to the bladder, where it is
stored.

Day 0 (December 3,2019)
Patient XX, 15 years old female [ G1P-0] was been admitted at Ospital ng

by her auntie with a chief complain of pain in RLQ with 3 days of fever. She was
admitted to OB ward under the service of Dr. Y.
Vital signs of the patient were monitored every 1 hours; the patient is in 1 cm
(I.E). the patient has been under complete bed rest and monitoring every shift.
Laboratory test were ordered for patient such as Complete Blood Count with Platelet
Count and U&E urea and electrolytes (blood test). Patient diet was tolerated.
The doctor ordered IVF of D5LR 1Liter 15 gtts/min to run every 8 hours inserted
aseptically as venoclysis with D5W 500 plus 4 amps of Isoxsuprine 10 gtts/ minutes
