Increased CO²

17
Q

Benzocaine topical anesthetic can cause this serious reaction

A

Methemoglobinemia (Cyanosis & Chocolate Brown blood)

Call rapid

18
Q

Assess how often after endoscopic test

A

15 min for first 2 hrs

19
Q

Prescription needed for ___ L or more of oxygen

A

4L/ min

20
Q

Type of oxygen delivery mask used for hypercapnia

A

Venture

21
Q

Humiditfy oxygen at this level

A

4L/min

22
Q

Nasal Cannula, simple face mask, partial rebreather, and non-rebreather

This type of oxygen delivery system

A

Low-Flow

Requires patient to breath in room air also

23
Q

Nasal Cannula provides these many liters of oxygen

A

1 L 24% - 6 L 44%

24
Q

Simple face mask oxygen amount delivered

A

5L 40% - 8L 60%

25
Q

Non-rebreather mask

Valves should be (closed / open) during Inhalation & (closed / open) during exhaling

Caution:

A

Closed = Inhalation

Open = exhaling

Suffocation can occur with kinks in the bag/ oxygen source disconnects

26
Q

Partial rebreather mask

Oxygen rates

A

6 - 11 L/min

60 - 75%

27
Q

Venturi mask, aerosol mask, face tent, tracheostomy collar, T-piece

This type of oxygen delivery system

A

High flow

28
Q

___ mask works by pulling in a proportional amount of room air for each liter flow of oxygen

A

Venti (most accurate)

29
Q

Which high flow mask type uses humidity

A

All but venturi

Face tent, aerosol mask, trach collar, T piece

30
Q

Used with these types of patients

A

Open collapsed alveoli / Hold open upper airways

Atelectasis, cardiac-enduced pulmonary edema, COPD, SLEEP APENA

32
Q

No Valsalva maneuver, no sniff / blow nose, don’t sneeze with mouth closed

No NSAIDS

For this problem…

A

Broken nose

33
Q

For Epitaxis this position

A
