Question 1
Type: MCSA
The Patient Who Had Surgery Yesterday Reports His Chest Feels Tight. Assessment
Reveals Respiratory Rate Of 29, Inspiratory Wheezes, Stridor, And An Oxygenation
Saturation Of 80%. The Nurse Would Consider This Patient To Be Which Priority For
Transfer To The Intensive Care Unit (ICU)?
1. Priority 1
2. Priority 2
3. Priority 3
4. Priority 4
ANS: 1
Rationale 1: This Patient Is Exhibiting Signs Of An Acute Respiratory Event For Which
Intubation Or Other Intensive Treatment May Be Necessary. Priority 1 Patients Are
Acutely Ill And Need Intensive Treatment And Monitoring Not Provided Outside Of The
ICU.
Rationale 2: Priority 2 Refers To Patients Needing Intensive Monitoring And May
Potentially Need Additional Interventions. They Are Typically Not Evolving An Acute
Event As Is The Case With This Patient.
Rationale 3: Priority 3 Patients Are Critically Ill But Have Little Chance Of Recovery
From Their Illnesses. Limits Are Placed On Therapeutic Interventions And They Can Be
Cared For In Areas Other Than The ICU If Necessary.
Rationale 4: Priority 4 Patients Have No Signs Or Symptoms That Indicate Intensive
Monitoring Or Treatment Are Necessary.
