Q

Many people with COPD can feel breathless, even
when doing simple daily tasks. This can be frightening and debilitating, however there is a checklist of
simple things that you can do to help you deal with breathlessness and improve your quality of life.

Q

Muscle relaxation

A
  1. Find a comfortable lying or sitting position. Think
    about how your feeling
  2. Close your eyes and practice a few minutes of
    breathing control
  3. Starting at the bottom and working up tense the
    muscles of your feet, lower legs, thighs, buttocks,
    tummy, back, shoulders, arms, hands, neck and face
    for 4-5 seconds before relaxing each. Only Tense one
    area at a time
  4. Notice how much more relaxed your muscles feel.
    Stay in this position for a few minutes
  5. When you’re ready, open your eyes and take a few
    deep breaths. Let yourself become more aware of
    your surroundings and sit up slowly.

  2. Imagine that you are in your favorite place
    4.Imagine how it sounds, smells and feels

Q
  • It is important for people with COPD to remain as active as
    possible. Staying active helps maintain lung health, clear
    lung secretions and phlegm, whilst improving fitness and
    health.

Q

Being active also helps you feel less breathless when
performing your normal daily activities and improves your
sense of well-being.
* If you are thinking of increasing your exercise level you
should check with your doctor first, as they can advise you
on appropriate activities.
*Try to build up your exercise level slowly and don’t make
too dramatic a change in one go.

A

Hypoxia.

97
Q

Atrial and nodal arrhythmias are
the most common and occur if the patient is breathing
air while suctioned. Pre-oxygenation with 100% oxygen
abolishes these arrhythmias. Vagal stimulation,
however, can occur and may result in significant
bradycardia or even cardiac and respiratory arrest.

A

Cardiac arrhylhmias.

COMPLICATIONS OF
SUCTIONING ARE:

A

Tracheobronchial trauma
Bronchial obstruction
Hypoxia.

PROMOTE A CORRECT
TECHNIQUE:

A

1Select flow rate to achieve required fractional inspired
oxygen (FIO2).
2Check operation of bag prior to connection to the
patient.
3Hyperventilate following connection.

ventilator.

100
Q

The potential complications of bagging include:

A

1Barotrauma due to high airway pressure.
2Hypotension and decrease in cardiac output
3Raised intracranial pressure (ICP).

5Hyperventilation and loss of respiratory drive due to a
fast rate.
