Balloon keeps them in place

28
Q

A
29
Q

Transtracheal oxygen delivery

A

A method of oxygen delivery for the patient with a tracheostomy is the tracheal catheter which is inserted directly into the trachea between the second and third tracheal cartilages how much transtracheal catheter does not interfere with drinking eating or talking oxygen is delivered throughout the entire Respitory cycle 1-2 L

30
Q

Obturator

A

Used when changing inner cannula of trach

31
Q

Ostomy irrigation

A

Hey colostomy irrigation requires special equipment attach a tone to tubing lubricate the con insert the con into the stoma do a top of sleeve do not force the cone into the stoma. Use gentle pressure to hold a tip and place in stoma why are you hold con in place allow solution to flow slowly into the: patient complains of cramping stop flow without removing a call it’s so cramps subside instruct patient to sit about 15 to 20 minutes while we train solution flows into toilet Patient cannot sit this long it is acceptable to close the end of the irrigation sleeve with a clamp and allow the patient to be up and walking drain sleeve rinse and remove it I was very patient and results of irrigation ash toilet perform colostomy care document. From step 7

Slow and gradual to prevent dumping syndrome (caused by rapid infusion)
Verify placement of tube

41
Q

Gastric lavage

A

Used in cases of poisoning
Room temp meds instilled in stomach and then suctioned out
Repeated until ordered amt of solution is used
Removed solution must be evaluated and documented

42
Q

Enemas (1)

A

Can be pre filled and let lubricated
Introduction of solution into the colon the defecation of patient with constipation
Various reasons cleansing colon before surgery or abdominal surgery or fecal impaction
.

43
Q

Enema (2)

A
44
Q

Hemorrhoids

Swollen inflamed veins in anus and lower rectum
Can result from straining during bowel movements/pregnancy
Goal is to decrease pain, prevent elimination problems, prevent further damage
Maintain high fiber diet adequate fluid intake
Use lubricate for any insertion

45
Q

Urostomy care

A

Bladder removed

46
Q

Flatulence

A

The presence of air or gas in the intestinal track typically occurs in person consumes Gas producing liquids and food or decreased peristalsis
Many cause distention of stomach and abdomen

47

A

Pts with COPD Respiratory effort driven by hypoxia. Give O2 w/caution (2liters)

48
Q

Signs and symptoms of hypoxia

A
49
Q

Why ausculatae lung sounds

A

To verify adequate oxygenation and patency of the airway

50
Q

Oxymizer

A

Similar to nasal cannula in delivery
collects and conserves oxygen allowing higher percent of oxygen to be delivered
can be set as high as 15 liters

51
Q

What is tracheostomy

A

An artificial opening in trachea

52
Q

Primary responsibility for Trach care

A

Minimize infection risk by evaluating the patient
for excess secretions suction as often as necessary
provide constant airway humidification
change or clean respiratory therapy equipment every eight hours
Remove water that condenses in equipment tubing
provides frequent mouth care apply moisturizing agents to the dry cracked lips
Maintain nutritional levels
Patients with a tracheostomy may drink fluids and eat once the initial healing phase of the new tracheostomy has passed

53
Q

Endotracheal tube

A

Tube inserted thru mouth and into upper airway to provide a patent airway
O2 is administered via ET tube via oxygen setup or ventilator
Pt with ET tube are allowed nothing by mouth
It is necessary to provide parenteral or enteral nourishment
Suctioning can be performed thru ET tube
Used for emergency/short term

54
Q

T tube/Trach collar

A

Attached to Trach to deliver to deliver oxygen or moisture
It is T shaped the collar covers open end of the tracheostomy tube and has adjustable strap that extends around the neck

55
Q

Urinary catheters

A

used for treatment and diagnosis
used to maintain urinary flow, to divert urine flow
to facilitate healing after surgery and to introduce medication
to dilate or prevent narrowing of some portions of the urinary track
used for intermittent and continuous urinary drainage
*****Can be placed in the bladder ureter or the kidney

56
Q

Nursing interventions for a patient with urinary drainage system

A

Check for infection and trauma
follow aseptic technique when inserting a catheter
keep collection bag off of the floor
Record fluid intake and urinary output
check drainage system for proper placement and function
regularly encourage patient to drink plenty of fluids to flush the urinary tract
do not open drainage system after it is in place unless there is a drs order open
irrigation of the catheter as necessary and then only with an order from the doctor

57
Q

Catheter care

A

Patient with a Catheter iS especially vulnerable to urinary tract infections
encourage oral fluid intake of at least 2000 mL a day
Have patient ambulate‘s if possible to facilitate urine flow
Avoid kinks or compression of the drainage tube to prevent pooling of urine
Teach signs and symptoms of urinary track infection which are urgency frequency hesitancy burning sensation bladder spasms
Patient should receive routine catheter care and perineal hygiene at least two times per day to prevent urinary track infection

58
Q

Gastric decompression

A

The purpose of gastric decompression is to remove the air and fluids that build up when gastrointestinal motility is slowed
It is used frequently after surgery to help with distention that may occur and to prevent nausea and vomiting

59
Q

Removal of nasogastric tube

A

Assemble equipment reassure patient that nasogastric tube removal is less distressing than insertion
evaluate patient’s abdomen for bowel sounds evaluate patient’s nasal and oral cavity
if tube is attached to suction turn off suction and disconnect tubing
place towel or waterproof pad across patients chess
instruct patient to take deep breath and hold it pinch tube with fingers or clamp
place tubing in a plastic bag
provide oral and nasal care
position patient for comfort
dispose of tube and equipment
measure drainage and characteristics of drainage
inspect condition of nares and oral cavity
document any abnormalities

60
Q

Ostomy

A

An artificial opening
The site of the opening is called a stoma
Ostomies can be created because of trauma to the intestine, severe inflammation or diseases
they can be temporary or permanent
is it dependent on the reason they are present

61
Q

Bowel elimination

A

Elimination of bowel where is defecation is a basic human needs and is essential for normal body function
Paul elimination depends on several factors
A balanced diet including high fiber foods daily fluid intake 2000 to 3000 mL and activity
Every patient should have a bowel movement at least every 1 to 3 days
Give patients as much privacy as possible avoid continually checking on the patient

62
Q

Self catheterization

A

for a patient who has a spinal cord injuries
or other neurological disorders that interfere with urinary elimination promote independence for the patient
Clean technique can be use rather than sterile technique at home
