,incubation period

organisms growing and multiplying
As Needed Care (PRN Care)
Give this one a try later!
Offer individual hygiene measures as needed.
Change clothing and bed linens of diaphoretic patients.
Provide oral care every 2 hours if indicated.
Bronchovesicular:
Give this one a try later!
medium pitch and sound during expiration, heard over the upper anterior

purpose of wound dressings
Give this one a try later!
, Provide physical, psychological, and aesthetic comfort
Prevent, eliminate, or control infection Absorb drainage
Maintain moisture balance of the wound
Protect the wound from further injury Protect the skin surrounding the
wound
Debride (remove damaged/necrotic tissue), if appropriate
Stimulate and/or optimize the healing response
Consider ease of use and cost-effectiveness
Peak Expiratory Flow Rate (PEFR)
Give this one a try later!
maximum flow attained during the forced expiratory maneuver
Inflammatory Phase
Give this one a try later!
• Follows hemostasis and lasts about 2 to 3 days
• White blood cells, predominantly leukocytes and macrophages, move to
the wound .
• Macrophages enter the wound area and remain for an extended period.
• They ingest debris and release growth factors that attract fibroblasts to fill
in the wound.
• The patient has a generalized body response.
Function of the Skin
Give this one a try later!
, Level of patient participation in hygiene program
Elimination of, reduction in, or compensation for factors interfering with
independent execution of hygiene measures
Changes related to specific skin problems and independent patient
management of prescribed treatment program
Oxygen Delivery Systems
Give this one a try later!
• Nasal cannula - administers low or high flow amounts of oxygen
• Nasopharyngeal catheter
• Transtracheal catheter
• Simple mask
• Partial rebreather mask -provides a conservation of oxygen by mixing
exhaled air and 100% oxygen in a mixed bag
• Nonrebreather mask - provides the highest concentration of oxygen
• Venturi mask - provides the most precise amount of oxygen
• Tent
Maturation Phase
Give this one a try later!
• Final stage of healing; begins about 3 weeks after the injury, possibly
continuing for months or years.
• Collagen is remodeled.
• New collagen tissue is deposited.
• Scar becomes a flat, thin, white line.
