12. PLANNINGPLANNING
DISEASE GOALS FOR TREATMENT OF PROBLEM GOALS ACHIEVED (Y/N)
Appendicitis Surgery (conventional or laparoscopic)
is indicated if appendicitis is diagnosed
and should be performed as soon as
possible to decrease risk of perforation.
Administer antibiotics and IV fluids until
surgery is performed.
Analgesic agents can be given after
diagnosis is made. These are not given
before a suspected case of appendicitis
to determine whether the patient has a
ruptured appendix or not.
