You enter a patient's room and find the patient not breathing, no pulse, and unresponsive. You have called for help. What is the next step?
New standards in CPR emphasize chest compressions over airway, so the next step after calling for help is to check the pulse and begin chest compressions. Chest compressions should be given immediately (30 for an adult patient), and then followed by opening the airway and beginning respirations. Ventilation is only initiated when the airway is open or patent, as oxygen is not needed until the patient is breathing.
The correct hand placement for chest compressions is the:
Answer(s): D
The correct hand placement for chest compressions is the lower half of the sternum. To determine the proper placement the nurse would want to locate the notch where the rib margin meets the sternum. Place the middle finger on the notch and index finger next to it. Next place the heel of the opposite hand on the lower half of the sternum close to the index finger. Place the first hand on top of the hand on the sternum and begin chest compressions.
What is the proper technique for opening the airway on a trauma patient?
To open the airway of any patient that might have a neck injury the nurse would perform a jaw thrust maneuver. All of the other options do not protect the neck from further injury.
The most appropriate place to check the pulse on a 1-month-old infant is:
Brachial pulse is the appropriate pulse for a 1 month old infant. It is difficult to check the carotid pulse on an infant due to the short, fat neck. Popliteal and radial pulses are also difficult to palpate.
You are encouraging your postoperative patient to cough and take deep breaths. The patient questions why it is so important to do this. Your response would include the understanding that retaining pulmonary secretions can lead to:
Coughing and deep breath exercises help prevent pneumonia in the postoperative patient. Pneumonia is inflammation of lung tissue that causes productive cough, dyspnea and crackles. Postoperative complications related to pneumonia can be prevented if the patient is encouraged to cough and breathe deeply.
