Question | Answer |
---|---|
High blood pressure or head trauma would be a ______ of placing a pt in a head down position. | Contraindication |
What rules should always be followed when giving CPT? | Never just after meals, watch pt's face, furthest bed railing up |
Prone position w/ foot of bed elevated drains what segments/lobes? | Posterior basal & lower |
Percussive Therapy is best described as: | Cupped hands trapping air as hand strikes pt's chest |
Splinting is: | Support of incision during coughing to ease pain |
Postural draining typically indicated with: | Pneumonia |
Hazards of postural drainage: | Increased intracranial pressure, transient hypoxemia, & acute airway obstruction |
How many segments in the R & L lungs? | 10 & 8 |
Supine position, pillow under knees, w/ foot of bed slightly elevated drains what segment/lobe? | Anterior basal, lower |
Pt laying 1/4 turn from prone w/ a pillow between legs, draining which segment/lobe? | Lateral, lower |
Prone w/ a pillow under pt's stomach & foot of bed elevated, draining which segment/lobe? | Posterior basal, lower |
CPT does not treat: | Plural abscess |
Race Epi (what,dose) | Bronchodilator(rescue drug),0.25-0.5ml |
Mucomyst (what,dose) | Mucolytic, reduce mucus volume & viscocity, 10% recomm. but 20% also avail., give w/ bronchodilator, stinks, don't give to nauseated pts, short-term use |
Atrovent(ipratropium bromide) (what, dose) | Anticholinergic, prevent constriction in larger intermediate airways, SVN: 0.5mg w/ 2-3ml saline, MDI: 18ug/puff - 2 puffs QID |
Combivent(ipratropium bromide & albuterol sulfate) (what, dose) | Anticholinergic(larger airways) & sympathomimetic(smaller/lower airways), MDI: 18ug ipratropium 90ug albuterol, not for pts w/ soy or peanut allergies |
Advair(fluticasone & salmeterol) (what, dose) | Corticosteroid & sympathomimetic, DPI Discus or MDI: 100/250/500ug fluticasone 50ug salmeterol/puff (1 BID) |
Xopenex(levalbuterol) (what, dose) | Sympathomimetic, smaller/lower airways SVN: 0.63/1.25mg w/ 3ml saline, MDI: 45ug/puff |
Pulmozyme(dornase alpha) (what, dose) | Proteolytic, thin infectious mucus, 2.5mg ampoule |
Spiriva(tiotropium bromide) (what, dose) | Anticholinergic, larger airways, DPI: 18ug/capsule (QD) |
Asepsis | Free from infection |
Aseptic technique | Methods used to prevent contamination |
Colonization | Presence & growth of microbes in a host |
Disinfection | Complete destruction of vegetative microorganisms - not spores |
Gram-negative | Bacteria that DO NOT retain their basic stain after alcohol wash |
Gram-positive | Bacteria that DO retain their basic stain after alcohol wash |
Nosocomial infection | Hospital acquired infection |
Pathogenic | Disease producing |
Pseudomonis aeruginosa | Gram negative bacilli known for rapid appearance in water reservoirs (ex: nebs) |
Sterilization | Process that results in the absence of living microorganisms - includes spores |
Sterile | To be absent of living microorganisms - includes spores |
Ziehl-Neelsen stain(AFB) | Acid-fast stain used to identify acid-fast organisms |
Dry Heat method | Sterilize, 160-180C, 2hrs, only glass & metals |
Ethylene Oxide (ETO) method | Sterilize, 50-56C, 30-60% humidity, 3-4hrs, items must be dry, kills by alkylation, mix w/ 10-15% CO2 otherwise explosive, don't ETO PVC, aerate plastics up to 12hrs. |
Glutaraldehyde method | Alk form 10mins disinfection - 10hrs for sterilization, Acid form 20mins disinfection - if heated to 60C will sterilize in 1 hr, denatures proteins, very irritating |
Quaternary method | Disinfectant, bactericidal activity is limited |
Gamma Radiation method | Sterilize, very effective, expensive, requires extensive facility & equipment |
Ultraviolet method | Limited use, kills most - not all - bacteria |
Betadine(iodophor) | Disinfectant, less irritating than iodine though less bactericidal |
Isopropyl alcohol | Disinfectant |
Output Sampling surveillance | Test in-use or cleaned equip, colony counts, quantitative, amounts & types compared to ambient air, excessive = positive |
Rinse Sampling surveillance | Monitor effectiveness of process method, sloshed in sterile broth, broth incubated, quantitative, sensitive to growth |
Swab Sampling surveillance | Monitor in-use equip, sterile swab on single location, swab inoculate auger plate or broth for incubation, qualitative *most common method |
Glutaraldehyde requires what to be activated? | NaHCO3 |
Steam autoclaving used what level of pressure? | 15psi |
Autoclave & glutaraldehyde are effective against? | Tuberculosis organisms |
Autoclave & ETO are effective in killing? | Spores |
What older bronchodilator has more cardiovascular effects? | Metaprel (metaproterenol or alupent) |
Hypoventilation can be caused by? | High FiO2 delivered to CO2 retainer |
What happens to FiO2 if resistance builds up in a venturi device? | Increases |
IPPB breathing issues | Breathing pattern unnatural, pt should relax & allow vent to fill lungs, exhalation passive |
IPPB sensitivity | Set auto-trigger, then slowly decrease until pt able to trigger easily |
IPPB hazards/complications | Hypocapnea, hyperventilation, decreased CO, increased ICP, pneumothorax |
After reviewing the physician's order & the CXR, what next would best help determine where CPT should be concentrated? | Ausculate & percuss |
CPT/PD contraindications | Cardiovascular instability, undrained empyema, lung abscess, hemoptysis |
High Flow devices | Air Entrainment Mask (venti mask) |
Low Flow devices | Nasal cannula, simple O2 mask, partial re-breathing mask, non-rebreather |
Suction pressure should not exceed | 120 when end of suction tube occluded |
Autoclave | Sterilization, 15psi @ 121C for 15 min, very effective, limited use on certain materials due to high heat |
