safety issue
what are clinical signs of barotrauma?
,Give this one a try later!
sudden drop in oxygen saturation, SOB, tachypneic, hypotension, sudden
loss of consiousness, diminished or absent breath sounds on the affected
side -> suspect pneumothorax
ventilator monitoring?
Give this one a try later!
PEEP and pressure support level, if applicable to improve oxygenation may
be the first to adjust to improve oxygenation
what is prevention for atelectasis ?
Give this one a try later!
early mobilization
what are symptoms of an infection?
Give this one a try later!
tachycardia, tachypnea, and a hyperthermic response
Flail chest?
, Give this one a try later!
paradoxical movement of rib cage with respirations - sucking inward of
broken segment during inhalation and puffing out during exhalation
- must monitor ABGs
- needle thoracotomy for decompressing a tension pneumothorax;
decompresses the pleural space and allows for lung expansion with use of
a large bore needle
*second inter-coastal space mid-clavicular
splinting ...

minimizes risk of contractures - permanent shortening of muscles or
tendons that restrict movement
what are priority actions for medical and nursing management of ARF?
Give this one a try later!
- provide or increase oxygenation to assist in ease of breathing and
prepare for intubation mechanical ventilation
- elevate HOB
- assess the patients respiratory status by monitoring the level of
responsiveness, arterial blood gases, pulse oximetry, and vital signs
