NUR 172 exam 1
4 elements of malpractice - ANS-Duty
Breach of duty
Injury
Causation
amino acids - ANS-tissue repair
muscle growing
wound healing
Back check valve - ANS-under chamber above first port, allows fluid to flow ONE WAY, doesn't
back into other solution.
Calculations - ANS-mL/hr → IV pump
Infusion time in hr
Total mL/time in hour
carbohydrates - ANS-spares protein
necessary calories for energy
decrease ketosis
hepatic function
Central line dressing and needleless cap/access port changed - ANS-WEEKLY
Code of ethics - ANS-The principles that used in ethical and moral decision making
Elastomeric pump: balloon pump - ANS-Analgesic, ABX, chemotherapy
One time use, prefilled from pharmacy
Evidence based practice (EBP) - ANS-Clinical expertise
Patient preference
Evidence based research
health care law - ANS-Scope of practice
Public health/infection control
Consent
Advanced directives
HYPERTONIC solutions - ANS-D5/0.9% NaCl
D10/W
D5/LR
TPN
25% Albumin
D60/W
hypertonic solutions - ANS-we want higher concentration in the veins than outside the cell
the cell pressure is low concentration
this forces fluid to move out the cell and into the veins
intracellular --> intravascular
blood pressure increases because of the fluid in the way.
watch fluids as it can lead to circulatory overload
