NURSING VERSION
1. Fail chest - ANS ✓Multiple rib fractures that cause
paradoxical breathing
2. fail chest manifestations - ANS ✓Paradoxical movement
of chest wall, respiratory distress. May be associated
hemothorax, pneumothorax, pulmonary contusion
3. fail chest treatment - ANS ✓O2 as needed to maintain
O2 saturation, analgesia. Stabilize flail segment with
positive pressure ventilation (intubation and mechanical
ventilation). Treat associated injuries. Surgical fixation.
4. hemothorax - ANS ✓blood in the pleural cavity
5. hemothorax symptoms - ANS ✓Dyspnea, diminished or
absent breath sounds, dullness to percussion, decreased
Hgb, shock depending on blood volume lost
6. hemothorax treatment - ANS ✓Chest tube insertion
with chest drainage system. Autotransfusion of
collected blood, treatment of hypovolemia as necessary
7. pneumothorax - ANS ✓air in the pleural cavity
NR 341
,2
8. pneumothorax symptoms - ANS ✓Dyspnea, decreased
movement of involved chest wall, diminished or absent
breath sounds on the affected side, hyperresonance to
percussion
9. pneumothorax treatment - ANS ✓chest tube placement
10. Superficial (first-degree) burn - ANS ✓burns that
affect only the epidermis, characterized by skin that is
red but not blistered or actually burned through
11. Deep (second-degree) burn - ANS ✓Destroys the
epidermis, dermis, and accessory organs of the skin
12. Third- and fourth-degree burns - ANS ✓Dry, waxy
white, leathery, or hard skin. Visible thrombosed
vessels. Insensitivity to pain because of nerve
destruction. Possible involvement of muscles, tendons,
and bones
All skin elements and local nerve endings destroyed.
Coagulation necrosis present. Surgical intervention required
for healing
13. Cranial Nerve 1: Olfactory - ANS ✓smell
NR 341
, 3
14. Cranial Nerve II: Optic - ANS ✓-Function: sensory -
carries impulse for vision
-Testing procedure: eye chart testing, visual field testing
15. Cranial Nerve III: Oculomotor - ANS ✓--Function:
motor - fibers to the superior, inferior and medial rectus
muscles of the eye and to the smooth muscle controlling
lens shape. Medial and vertical eye movements; sensory
- proprioception of the eye
-Testing procedure: pupil sizes are compared for shape and
equality, pupillary reflex is tested; visual tracking is tested
16. Cranial Nerve 4: Trochlear - ANS ✓eye movement
17. Cranial Nerve 5: Trigeminal - ANS ✓Function- facial
sensation to hot/cold; light touch, chewing, branches:
ophthalmis, maxiallry, mandibular
Test- Respective testing of 3 divisions. C;inch jaw & check
masseter & temporalis muscles; jaw and corneal reflex.
18. Cranial Nerve 6: Abducens - ANS ✓lateral eye
movement
19. Cranial Nerve 7: Facial - ANS ✓facial expression
