The patient is at risk for ineffective tissue perfusion related to postpartum hemorrhage due to low lab results and vital signs. The nursing diagnosis is risk for ineffective tissue perfusion related to postpartum hemorrhage. The plan is to assess skin color, temperature, moisture and perfusion changes to determine the location and type of perfusion problem. Interventions include monitoring fluids, encouraging early ambulation, emphasizing avoiding blood thinners and smoking, and administering medications to improve perfusion as needed. The goal is for the patient to demonstrate adequate perfusion and stable vital signs after 8 hours of nursing intervention.
