Define Portal of Entry - how infectious agent enters another person's body (a new host)
Define Susceptible Host - anyone at risk of the infectious agent
- age
- increased acuity
What are factors that
- invasive procedures
could increase a client's - immunocompromised
risk of being a Susceptible - complex treatments
Host?
What is Percutaneous Puncture wound by sharp object or needle
Exposure
What is Permucosal Exposure? From body fluids or blood that splashes onto mucous
membranes
What is Non-Intact Skin Through eczema, open wound, lesion or scratch
Exposure?
1) wash exposed area
2) first aid assistance & obtain proper forms
What is the procedure if
3) inform supervisor/manager, occupational health & IPAC team
exposure to blood & bodily 4) complete risk assessment within 2 hours
fluids occurs? 5) follow treatment & report incident (according to agency policy
Local Infection:
- small area of body
- near portal of entry
- ex: UTI, staph infection
Identify & describe the types Focal Infection:
of infections - secondary location
- ex: if staph spreads to bloodstream & affects heart
Systemic Infection:
- when it spreads throughout entire body
- Infectious disease
Identify classifications of - Iatrogenic disease
diseases - Zoonotic disease
, - caused
by direct effect of pathogen
Define Infectious disease - communicable
- can be contagious (spread easily)
- result of a medical procedure
Define Iatrogenic disease
- occur after wound treatments, catheterization or surgery
Define Zoonotic disease - transmitted from animals to humans
- Explainany positioning instructions
- Designate specific times throughout shift where NAP
Delegation of positioning a
(nursing assistive personnel) must reposition patient
patient in bed
- Provide information regarding patient's individual/personal
needs
- verify ROM
- obtain additional help as needed
- verify orders for position changes
Procedure when - keep patient's body aligned
assisting with - account for all tubing, drains & equipment
positioning a patient in - increase frequency of repositioning if patient reports discomfort
bed for PATIENT'S
- supervise & aid assistive personnel
SAFETY:
- explain what to report back to the nurse
Prone position lying on abdomen, head turned to one side, arms positioned,
toes elevated, arm in flexed position at level of shoulders
Fowler's position head of bed raised 45-60 degrees, pillows for arm support (if no
control), roll under thighs, calves/ankles supported with roll,
roll at bottom of feet,
, lying flat on back, lumbar roll, pronated forearms on
Supine position pillow, upper-arms parallel to body, trochanter roll
parallel to lateral surface of thighs, feet supported
with trochanter roll, fingers & thumb around roll
lying on left side, right knee drawn up, pillow under
Sim's position
knee, left arm parallel to the back, feet supported with
roll, pillow under arm (hugging)
Trendelenburg position patient's feet and legs are higher than the head (15-30 degree
incline)
Lateral position the client lies on one side or the other; side-lying position
- use of correct musculoskeletal & nervous systems
to complete tasks safely & efficiently
Define body mechanics - avoiding strain on any muscle or joint
- maintain balance, posture & body alignment during
lifting, bending, moving & performing ADL
- mechanical lifts are essential when patient's unable assist
- checkpoints when transferring a patient
- wider base of support
- lower centre of gravity
- divide balanced activity between arms & legs
Principles of Body Mechanics - leverage, rolling, turning or pivoting require less work than
lifting
- use transfer sheets to reduce friction & force to reposition
patient
- good body mechanics = reduced fatigue
- alternate rest & activity periods
- work at height of taller nurse (hip height) when transferring
patient
- the relationship of one body part to another along a horizontal
or vertical line
Define body - positioning of joints, ligaments, tendons & muscles while
alignment/balance standing, sitting or lying
- achieved when wide base of support is present & when
centre of gravity falls within base of support
What is the result of correct Reduction of strain on musculoskeletal structures
alignment?
- decreased metabolic rate
Metabolic complications of - impacts fluid, electrolyte, calcium imbalances (reabsorption
immobility from bones) & GI upset
- decreased appetite & constipation
