What is A PULSE OXIMETER
A DEVICE WITH A SENSOR THAT MEASURES OXYGEN SATURATION OF THE BLOOD
|
What is hypercapnia
an excess of carbon dioxide in the blood
|
What is percussion
a chest physiotherapy technique that involves rhythmic clapping of cupped hands over various segments of the lungs to mobilize secretions
|
What is hyperoxygenate
It is important to _____________________ the patient before suctioning and to assess the patient before, during, and after the procedure.
|
What is evaluating the patient's tolerance of the various positions
What should you assess before and during postural drainage?
|
What is NORMAL RANGE FOR SPO2
95-100%
|
What is hyperventilation
excessively rapid or deep breathing
|
What is suction
negative force used to withdraw air, fluid, or secretions out of a body cavity or part
|
What is What is the benefit of removing secretions from the airway and not allowing them to accumulate?
reduces the risk for respiratory infections and atelectasis
|
What is -Immediately withdraw the suction catheter and administer oxygen and breaths from a manual resuscitation bag as needed.
-In an emergency, you can deliver oxygen directly through the catheter by disconnecting the suction and attaching oxygen at the prescribed flow rate.
What should you do if my patient shows respiratory distress when suctioning?
|
What is atelectasis
airlessness or collapse of a lung, usually as a result of hypoventilation or obstruction
|
What is hypoxemia
a diminished amount (reduced saturation) of oxygen in arterial blood
|
What is vibration
a chest physiotherapy technique that involves applying pressure and a shaking movement of the hand to various areas over the lungs to mobilize pulmonary secretions
|
What is the benefit of removing secretions from the airway and not allowing them to accumulate?
reduces the risk for respiratory infections and atelectasis
|
What is increase oral hydration
What intervention should you implement if the patient has thick pulmonary secretions?
|
What is chest physiotherapy (CPT)
a method of mobilizing pulmonary secretions by positioning the patient's head downward to incline the trachea below the affected area and then applying percussion and vibration techniques; often used synonymously with postural drainage, although that term technically refers to drainage by gravity without percussion and vibration
|
What is hypoxia
a reduced supply of oxygen to tissues below physiological levels despite adequate perfusion of the tissue by blood
|
What is the purpose of suctioning
clears secretions from the airway of patients who cannot mobilize and expectorate them without assistance
|
What is slowly and deeply in an alternating manner
How do you instruct the patient to breath during percussion?
|
What is confirm probe placement
confirm 02 delivery system is functioning place patient in semifowlers position encourage deep breathing stay with patient and provide emotional supposrt to devrease anxiety
Interventions for hypoxemic patients
|
What is Peek flow
measures expiratory efforts
|
What is spirometry
Measures inspiration and expiration
|
What is complications caused by suctioning
-hypoxia,
-injury to the airway -nosocomial infections -cardiac dysrhythmias, |
What is the breasts, sternum, spinal column, and kidneys
Avoid percussion over
|
What is Venturi mask
covers patients nose and mouth
delivers FiO2 of 24%-50% at fow rates of 4 to 12L/min via different size adaptors. which allows specific amounts of air to mix with oxygen |
