CLINICAL REASONING
CYCLE

ID- xxxxx

INTRODUCTION
 The main purpose of the study is to learn
the application of clinical reasoning cycle
in assessing the patient who have
potentialities to develop multiple health
complication (Hunter,& Arthur, 2016).
 The study will cover the identification of
one potential health issue that the
patient is likely to develop by assessing
his past history, vital sign and
observation.
 The study will give detail about the
SMART goal and action taken to improve
the health outcome of the patient.

SITUATION OF PATIENT AND
COLLECTION OF INFORMATION
 Mr Joni is 56 years old man lives with is
family.
 He works full time as mechanical engineer
and do overtime of 50hours/week.
 He smokes one pack of cigarettes per week
and have unhealthy eating habits.
 His blood pressure, BGL and total
cholesterol are 142/96mmHg, 9.6mmol/L
and 9.2mmol/L.
 Therefore, the identified health
complication that he is likely to develop is
Type 2 diabetes

PROCESS OF INFORMATION AND
IDENTIFICATION OF PROBLEM
Pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes
Type 2 diabetes
Physical
inactivity,
smoking, high
sugar diet
Loss of function
of beta cell of
Langerhans
High blood
glucose level -
HYPERGLYCEMIA
Glucose is not
able to move to
cell
Unable to
secrete insulin
Low appetite,
heart stroke and
dysfunction of
organs
Dependent on
insulin
Thus, need care
plan

CONSEQUENCE OF THE ISSUE
IDENTIFIED
 Risk of cardiovascular complication
 Nerve damage
 Kidney damage
 Impaired vision
 Low appetite
 Amputation (Brown & Kuk, 2015).

ESTABLISHMENT OF GOAL
Goal1. Specific Measurable achievable Realistic Timely
Mr Joni will become
physical activity and
eat healthy food.
To engage Mr Joni in
physical activity
Mr Joni will exercise for
15 min for the first ten
days. Next 20 day he
will increase the time
for exercise to 30
mins.
It can be measured by
regular monitoring of
the time for physical
activity.
It is attainable by
encouraging and
educating Mr Joni
about the importance
of physical activity as
evident in the study of
Agboola et al. (2016).
The author has
described that person
can be effectively
engaged in physical
activity if they are
motivated towards it.
From the study of Yom-
Tov et al. (2017), it is
inferred that by
motivating and
encouraging the
person for physical
activity, has engaged
80% of the people and
improved their health.
Thus, the goal is
realistic.
The intervention will
be given for a period
of 3 months.

ESTABLISHMENT OF GOAL
Goal 2. Specific Measurable achievable Realistic Timely
Mr Joni will be
adapt to the
healthy eating
habit
Will give a diet
plan to lower the
risk of diabetes.
He will eat
healthy food,
which will be
lower in sugar
and fats.
The daily record
will be
maintained
about quantity
and type of food
consumed
He is adapt to
the healthy
eating habit by
encouraging and
educating
(Jannasch
Kröger,
& Schulze,
2017).
From the study
of Jannasch
Kröger and
Schulze (2017) it
was observed
that by the
intervention of
giving healthy
diet plan has
proved to lower
the risk of type 2
diabetes.
The diet plan will
be made,
followed for 3
months.

ACTION PLAN
Following action can be taken by the
nurse to lower the risk of type 2
diabetes.
 Will give pharmacological intervention
to maintain the blood glucose level
 Educate patient regarding importance
of physical exercise
 Motivate patient to adopt healthy
eating habit (Stevens et al., 2015).
 Will plan a healthy diet plan for Mr
Joni.
 Will make record of lifestyle of Mr Joni.

EVALUATION OF THE OUTCOME
To evaluate the outcome, following measure can be taken
 Perform physical assessment and record the vital sign every 15th day
from the initiation of care plan.
 Check for the progress of the intervention towards goal
 Check daily eating habit (Turner et al., 2018).

REFLECTION ON THE PROCESS
AND NEW LEARNING
I could have suggested
nutritionist and
physiotherapist to the
patient.
Use of clinical reasoning
cycle
Ways to assess patient with
multiplication issue

CONCLUSION
 The case study deal with patient having multiple health complication for
which there is the need to develop a care plan by using clinical
reasoning cycle.
 Patient is found with potentiality to develop Type 2 diabetes.
 The strategy of monitoring blood glucose level in weekly basis will help
to determine that patient and nurse intervention have been successful.
 I have learned the way to use clinical reasoning cycle in making a care
plan for the patient.
