I. Introduction
a. vervie$ o" the case
'ciaticais a set of symptoms includin% pain that may be caused by %eneral
compression or irritation of one of five spinal nerve roots that %ive rise to each sciatic
nerve( or by compression or irritation of the left or ri%ht or both sciatic nerves. The pain
is felt in the lower bac)( buttoc)( or various parts of the le% and foot. "n addition to pain(
which is sometimes severe( there may be numbness( muscular wea)ness( pins and
needles or tin%lin% and difficulty in movin% or controllin% the le%. Typically( the symptoms
are only felt on one side of the body. Pain can be severe in prolon%ed e*posure to cold
weather.
'lthou%h sciatica is a relatively common form of low bac) pain and le% pain( the true
meanin% of the term is often misunderstood. Sciatica is a set of symptoms rather than a
dia%nosis for what is irritatin% the root of the nerve( causin% the pain. This point is
important( because treatment for sciatica or sciatic symptoms often differs( dependin%
upon the underlyin% cause of the symptoms and pain levels. Sciatica is also referred to
as Lumbar +adiculopathy( which involves compression of the sciatic nerve roots caused
by a herniated ,torn or protrudin% disc in the lower bac).
(. ()ective o" the study
This case study aims to present all the details about patients condition( its causative
factors( and its dama%e to human physiolo%y and so with its underlyin% complication if
left untreated. This can be achieved throu%h research( with the use of the clients
hospital records( article referred and other materials and interviewin% the client durin%
hospitali/ation also to formulate a complete and comprehensive definition of the causes.
0nderstand the medical principles that accompany Sciatica. 0sed insi%ht on appropriate
nursin% care and mana%ement that a client with the same ailments which is needed in
the future.

c. 'cope & *imitation o" the study
The scope of this study shows the overview of the patients condition( the anatomy
and patholo%y of the system affected by the said condition( the different dia%nostic test
and the interpretation of each result( the dru% study of the different dru%s administered
to the client to aid her condition( the appropriate nursin% mana%ement as well as its
rationale for the wellness of the client and lastly the nursin% interventions %iven durin%
the duration of our rotation. The study is limited only on the basic conditions of Sciatica
that was manifested by the client. The nursin% interventions %iven were only
fundamental care to the client just prior to our limited )nowled%e and s)ills and more
importantly( the study ensures the confidentiality of all the information divul%ed by thepatient.

IV. Developmental Data
#reud,s heory o" Psychose0ual Development
Genital phaseThe fifth and last sta%e of psycho-se*ual development( the %enital sta%e( lasts
from puberty onward ,i.e. startin% at 7; years of a%e. "t is said to continue until
development stops( which is supposedly at 7> years of a%ewhen adulthood starts. This
sta%e represents a major portion of life and the basic tas) for the individual is
detachment from parents. "t is also the time when the individual tries to come to terms
with unresolved residues of early childhood. "n this sta%e( the focus is a%ain on the
%enitals( li)e in the phallic sta%e( but this time the ener%y is e*pressed in terms of adultse*uality. 'nother crucial difference between these two sta%es is that( while phallic
%ratification is lin)ed with satisfaction of primary drives( the e%o in the %enital sta%e is
well-developed. "t uses secondary( process thin)in%( which allows for symbolic
%ratification. This symbolic %ratification may include the formation of love relationships(
development of families( or acceptance of responsibilities associated with adulthood.

There are many important thin%s you can do to help minimi/e the li)elihood of
potential dama%e associated with serious complications as a result of Sciatica. Stay
informed about your condition and about new and developin% therapies. 2et support from
family( friends( counselors and other patients to maintain the very best Muality of life.Tal)
with your physician about your particular situation and what to loo) for. Kor) closely with
your healthcare providers( and do what is necessary to safe%uard your health( you can
develop a plan for what can be done to prevent complications or to treat complications if
they occur. Hoth patients and physicians have every reason to believe that the
understandin% of sciatica and the ability to mana%e sciatica and its complications will
continue to improve. This offers a very real promise that the outcomes also will continue to
improve.
II. %valuation & Implication
The si%nificance of this study promul%ates a comprehensive learnin%( s)ills and
responsibilities on the said case. "t includes a thorou%h collaborative discussion and
interaction between me( as a student nurse and my client at the #edical Kard at 'P#C.
$ifferent nursin% assessment and interventions( both ideal and actual was presented in
order to show a comparison and variability of each procedure done. ot only on the nursin%
part was presented( a comprehensive medical and dia%nostic procedures was alsocompared( both actual and ideal to show the essence of every care %iven. $urin% the
discussion of anatomy and physiolo%y( and its pathophysiolo%y related to the condition( the
case will thorou%hly deviate from the normal flow of the story and yet further analysis is
reMuired since no actual Pathophysiolo%y was thorou%hly discussed to e*plain the theory
presented. 'll the essential data reMuired are presented and tabulari/ed in order to ease up
the readers upon readin%.
The whole discussion will truly %ive innovations to the related education and field studies
and will somewhat aid the readers to enli%hten their minds about sciatica.
's a student nurse e*posed in the clinical area( )nowin% the si%nificance of each
nursin% practice will promote a %reat alteration in our future profession. 1very case
encountered whether complicated or not deals a lot for us because we deal with life here
and yet simple problem can lead onto hu%e complication if no intervention will be done

immediately. " really appreciate the si%nificance of this case in relation to my chosen field of
studies for it made my mind twist for awhile leavin% my head open-ended Muestion of how a
simple trauma can cause a serious e*perience and cause of sciatica. Hut later on( " develop
and find the answer to my Muestion upon further studyin%.
!andlin% and %ivin% care to a client under this condition truly challen%e my )nowled%e( s)ills
and attitude as a student nurse vital si%ns( especially the blood pressure was the most
si%nificant responsibility to be done. 't the clinical area( shift to shift monitorin% of inta)e
and output was also done to provide and monitor the metabolism of my client. +e%ular
monitorin% of "D fluid was also done to maintain fluid balance and replenish the clients body
in a desired manner and as prescribed. !ealth teachin% and demonstratin% the proper
breathin% e*ercise( includin% the rationale of each procedure done was also shared to my
client to show competitiveness in my tas) and chosen course.
The study will provide data that can be potentially used up in durin% a future
research related to sciatica. Throu%h the comprehensive discussion and comparison of
every actual and ideal care %iven( it will be helpful in doin% client education on patient under
the same manner. 'lthou%h a new innovation of the said topic is presented( " also
recommend a further research for a better data and enhancements of the topic. The said
topic can also be used as a basis for studies and maybe helpful enou%h in the upcomin%
more studies
