PaCO2 32-48 mmHg - correct answer ✔✔32-48 mmHg
Thoracentesis is also known as... - correct answer ✔✔Pleural tap, is an invasive
procedure to remove fluid or air from the pleural space for diagnostic or
therapeutic purposes.
Used to obtain specimen of pleural fluid for diagnosis, remove pleural fluid, or
instill medication. Chest x-ray is always obtained after procedure to check for
pneumothorax.
What is the flow rate and % of O2 delivered through high flow nasal cannula? -
correct answer ✔✔6-15L, 24-80%
What is the flow rate and % of O2 delivered through simple face mask? - correct
answer ✔✔6-12L, 35-50%
What are expected findings for patient in respiratory distress? - correct answer
✔✔Increased RR, increased pulse, restlessness, SOB, decreased O2, anxiety,
coughing, decreased breath sounds.
What are indications for nasal cannula? - correct answer ✔✔Allow freedom of
movement, useful for low concentrations of o2, for claustrophobic patients.
,What are indications for high flow nasal cannula? - correct answer ✔✔For higher
concentrations of o2, for claustrophobic pt's, must be humidified, unable to
eat/drink.
What is flow rate and % of O2 delivered through venturi mask? - correct answer
✔✔4-12L, 50% MAX
What is flow rate and % of O2 delivered through partial rebreather? - correct
answer ✔✔10-15L, 60-90%
What is flow rate and % of O2 delivered through non-rebreather? - correct answer
✔✔10-15L, 100%
Which type of mask delivers a specific FiO2? - correct answer ✔✔Venturi mask
What is purpose of humidification with oxygen delivery? - correct answer ✔✔To
keep mucosa from drying out (used with higher flow rates of O2).
What are early signs of respiratory distress? - correct answer ✔✔Restlessness,
confusion, increased RR, increased HR, disoriented
What is normal range for low wall suction? - correct answer ✔✔80-120
What are indications for simple face mask? - correct answer ✔✔Short-term use,
must fit snugly, unable to eat/drink, must use higher concentration of o2.
,What are indications for partial rebreather? - correct answer ✔✔Short-term use,
monitor pt closely, must fit snugly, unable to eat/drink, must use higher
concentrations of o2, must be humidified, one vent open, flow rate to keep
reservoir bag inflated.
What is flow rate and % of O2 delivered through nasal cannula? - correct answer
✔✔1-6L, 24-44%
How does the nurse determine the need for supplemental oxygen? - correct
answer ✔✔Assess loc, pulse ox, mood, listen to lungs, confusion, restlessness.
What are indications for venturi mask? - correct answer ✔✔Delivers precise
concentrations of o2, watch air entrapment port, good for COPD pt's, must fit
snugly.
What are indications for non-rebreather? - correct answer ✔✔Short-term use,
monitor pt closely, must fit snugly, unable to eat/drink, must use higher
concentrations of o2, must be humidified, all vents closed, flow rate to keep
reservoir bag inflated
Upper Airways - correct answer ✔✔Nose
Pharynx
Epiglottis
Larynx
Trachea
Bifurcation
, Lower Airways - correct answer ✔✔Carina
Right and left bronchi
Bronchioles
Alveolar sac
Nasal Fracture - correct answer ✔✔Nose can be broken during sports, accidents,
fights and falls.
Swelling makes it difficult to tell if nose is broken initially.
After swelling decreased a broken nose may appear crooked and possibly broken.
We need to be aware of any obstructions that might occur.
A fractured nose may have... - correct answer ✔✔Injured bone
Cartilage
Nerves
Skin or mucosa (nasal lining)
Nasal Bone - correct answer ✔✔Support between the eyes.
Cartilages are flexible - correct answer ✔✔Support shape of nose but you can
fracture the cartilage as well.
Bilateral Nose Break - correct answer ✔✔Nose looks more flat.
Complex Nose Break - correct answer ✔✔Involves the yes and teeth.
