Nursing Care Plan For Ineffective Airway Clearance

The nurse assessed the client who was having difficulty breathing due to pleural effusion. The nurse's short term goals were for the client to achieve successful T-piece weaning and sustain normal respiratory rate and pattern within 8 hours. Interventions included assessing respiratory status, suctioning as needed, positioning the client, and allaying restlessness. The evaluation showed that after 8 hours the client was able to complete T-piece weaning and maintain a normal respiratory rate and decreased secretions.
