Part I-Patient Care Scenarios NOC Nurse Report Patient #1: Herbie Saunders Patient Report: What Do You Notice? Clinical Significance: “Herbie Saunders is a 62-year-old male who came in last night for a CHF exacerbation. His doctor is Dr. Davis and he’s a full code. He’s alert and oriented and can make his needs known. He’s on tele, normal sinus rhythm with occasional PVCs. His pressures are fine, heart rate is in the 70s. Lungs are clear in the uppers with crackles in the bases. He’s coughing up a small amount of white frothy secretions. He’s been on room air since he arrived, oxygen sats are in the low-mid 90s. He got 40 mg IV Lasix last night in the ED; I think you might have something scheduled during your shift but I haven’t given anything overnight. He has a 20 gauge in his right forearm. I’m not sure how he gets around since he’s been in bed since he got here.” Most Recent Vital Signs @ 0357 What Do You Notice?
