Oxygentation- Respiratory & Cardiac
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Identify individual, environmental, & pathological factors that influence oxygenation | air pollution pollens & allergens high blood pressure cigarette smoking obesity diabetes lack of exercise medications/drug use stress medical/family history smoking drugs & alcohol nutrition |
describe a focused physical assessment in relation to oxygenation | observe & inspect skin for pallor, palpate lungs, ausculate breath sounds, observe rate & pattern of respiration, inspect the chest to detect obvious chest deformities , wounds or masses, percuss |
describe a focused physical assessment in relation to breathing | observe the rate & pattern of respiration observe the assessory muscles palpate percuss auscultate |
describe a focused physical assessment in relation to circulation | inspect skin for pallor, inspect for edema, capillary refill, palpate & check pulses on both sides, check for dorsi flexion, ausculate for heart sounds in aoric, pulmonic, tricuspid and mitral locations |
describe a focused physical assessment in relation to gas exchange | |
interpret diagnostic testing related to oxygentation | pulse oximetry-greater than 95% is normal, below 93% indicates a need for oxygen |
interpret diagnostic testing related to breathing | Pulmonary function tests by use of tidal volume, vital capacity, forced expiratory volume Spirometry-gives graphic representation of lung volumes & flows |
interpret diagnostic testing related to circulation | Complete Blood Count Blood Chemistry tests |
interpret diagnostic testing related to gas exchange | arterial blood levels of O2, CO2, and pH PaO2 norm: 80-100 mm Hg PaCO2 norm: 35-45 mm Hg pH norm: 7.35-7.45 Hypoventilation-a PaCO2 lower than 35 Hyperventilation-a PaCO2 above 45 |
develop a nursing diagnoses related to alteration in oxygentation | Ineffective airway clearance |
develop a nursing diagnoses related to alteration in breathing | Ineffective breathing pattern |
develop a nursing diagnoses related to alteration in circulation | Ineffective tissue perfusion |
develop a nursing diagnoses related to alteration in gas exchange | Impaired gas exchange |
plan outcomes and patient centered care for maintaing and improving oxygenation | Pt will demonstrate knowledge regarding prevention of respiratory dysfunction Pts tissues will have adequate oxygenation Pt will mobilize pulmonary secretions Pt will effectively cope with changes in self concept & lifestyle |
identify nursing procedures that promote safety and involve other members of the health care team related to oxygenation, breathing, perfusion, & gas exchange. | Assess the pts response regularly assess the pts color, alertness, heart rate, breathing effort inform pt of the importance of the procedure |
describe methods to evaluate adequacy of oxygenation, breathing, perfusion, & gas exhange | |
modify outcomes based on patient centered care and safety related to oxygenation. | |

What is a syncopal expisode? | passing out |
What is dyspnea? | labored breathing & breathlessness |
What is Hemoptysis | coughing up blood |
What is the purpose of a PFT? (pulmonary function test) | to measure the airway & amt of air you can get into your lungs |
What does ABG monitoring do? | monitoring of acid base balance |
Is a consent form needed for a bronchioscopy? | yes |
What type of pt will use pursed lip breathing? | COPD |
What is chest physiotherapy? | clears excessive secretions from airway by Percussion, Vibration, Drainage (postural) |
What is the conduction system? | elecrical activity-SA node, bundle of HIS, etc |
What are the pumping chambers? | atria, ventrical valves |
What do the coronary arteries do? | carry oxygenated blood to heart lies outside the heart |
