35
Q

T/F: medications are not as important as suction

A

T

36
Q

the first and easiest way to suction

A

BBG (baby booger grabber)

37
Q

Second way to suction

A

NP (nasal pharyngeal)

38
Q

the highest you want to turn the suction to is _____ hg for peds patients

A

100

39
Q

remember with suction you need protection…

A

gown, mask, googles, gloves

40
Q

T/F: suction alone is better if it will work

A

T

41
Q

the meds are effective if the score decreases _____-_____ minutes post-tx

A

15-30 minutes

42
Q

Do not oral/PO feed if RR greater than or equal to _____ or bronchiolitis score >_____ or on a _____ _____ nasal cannular

A
  • RR > 65
  • bronchiolitis score > 6
  • high flow nasal cannula
43
Q

A 16-month old bronchiolitis patient with a baseline score of 5 is suctioned, and the post-suction score is 2. Following an albuterol trial, the RR = 42, subcostal & intercostal retractions are present and there are crackles bilaterally.What would you suggest for a plan of care?

A

Continue suctioning prn and discontinue albuterol treatments as the patient worsened post treatment.

44
Q

You are asked to evaluate a 2 year old bronchiolitis patient who hasQ4 albuterol treatments ordered. The baseline score is 3 for increased RR & wheezing. After suctioning, the RR is 26 with no retractions or wheezing. What would you suggest for the plan of care?

A

Continue suctioning since there were no wheezes post-suction; discontinue albuterol treatments

45
Q

A 20 month old bronchiolitis patient had a post suction score of 7 for RR 46, subcostal & intercostal retractions and inspiratory & expiratory wheezing. The post albuterol score was 6 for RR 45 (only change).Did the patient respond positively to the albuterol?

A

No—the drop in score was due to the drop in RR by one. Truly, this patient did not respond as breath sounds and work of breathing (retractions) did not change.

46
Q

You are evaluating a 13 month old for treatment need. The patient has already been suctioned and has both albuterol & epinephrine trials ordered. You find a RR of 62, subcostal & intercostal retractions, head-bobbing, grunting & diminished breath sounds, but no wheezing. There is no family history to suggest atopy (The genetic tendency to develop the classic allergic diseases).
Which medication would you use first?

A

Epinephrine since the patient is not wheezing and there is no family history to suggest atopy. It also may work faster.
