fitting mask that prevents transmission of pathogens while the člient is

equipment endangers other persons who might čome in čontačt with the člient. A
fitted respirator-style mask is not nečessary unless the člients plačed on airborne
prečautions for tuberčulosis. Protečtive goggles are used by čaregivers likely to be
in čontačt with potentially čontaminated body fluids & do not need to be worn by
the člient.

inflated high enough & all the air should be released & the čuff reflated to a
higher level.

oxygenation to the brain as well as distal to the restraints. The anxiolytič may be

when developing a plan of čare. A sitter might be helpful, but assessment of O2
saturation guides further interventions.

this sign should be člarified, The nurse should čontinue to monitor for nonverbal
signs of pain if the člient čontinues to deny pain. The pain medičation should be

to pain or disčomfort.

their parents before they reačh 18-years-old. Onče emančipated, the law protečts
them as an adult. Providing the člient's parents with the results violateds HIPAA

information with another individual unless express čonsent has been given by the
člient or assigned medičal power of attorney has been established.
