This is the core measure for pneumonia
Antibiotic administration within 4 hours
Blood cultures for ICU admission
Clamping a chest tube before the pneumothorax has resolved could result in this complication
Tension pneumothorax
These are the levels of oxygenation where medicare will pay for home health and therapy
Sp O2 < 88%
PO2 < 55%
These would be the tests results for a patient with latent TB. Include the PPD, chest xray and sputum findings
PPD - positive
CXR - negative
Sputum - negative
(Pt. is infected but walled off = no bacteria in sputum)
This ABG finding indicates impending respiratory failure for a patient who is status asthmaticus
PO2 decrease
PCO2 increase
pH decrease
(resp. acidosis)
This should be taught to all patients with allergic rhinitis
Identify and avoid triggers
This is an indicator of impending sepsis
Hypotension
This controls the level of suction from a chest tube
Level of water in the suction chamber
This is right side heart failure resulting from COPD
Cor Pulmonale
This test is ued to diagnosed obstructive sleep apnea
Polysomnography (Sleep Study)
This drug to treat TB can treat peripheral neuropathy and should be administered to prevent this complication.
Isoniazid (INH)
Vitamin B6 (Thyroxidine)
This class of medication is used a maintenance inhaler and decreases airway inflammation.
Inhaled Corticosteroids
These are interventions to prevent ventilator associated pneumonia
Elevate HOB
Oral care
Closed suctioning system
Bubbling in this chest tube chamber may indicate an air leak in the system
Water seal chamber
This is the pulmonary function test most indicative of COPD
Decreased FEV-1
These are 3 possible etiologies of epistaxis
Trauma
Nasal sprays
Street drugs
Coagulopathy
This level of inducation would indicate a positive TB for a person with no TB risk factors.
15 mm
This class of medicaiton is used as a rescue inhaler
Beta 2 Agonist Short Acting
(Ex: Albuterol)
This device is use to prevent post-op pneumonia
Incentive Spirometer
These are assessment findings associated with a tension pneumothorax
Hypotension
Tracheal deviation
This public health concern can result when a patient with active TB does not complete therapy
Multidrug Resistant TB
This is the nursing priority for a patient with epistaxis who has posterior nasal packing
Monitor airway
Oxygenation
This device is used for an asthma patient to monitor their own lung function
Peak flow meter
This breathing technique can help decrease air trapping
Pursed lip breathing
These are assessment findings suspected in pneumonia:
Fremitus
Percussion
Auscultation
Fremitus - increased
Percussion - dullness
Auscultation - diminished, crackles, ronchi or bronchial breath sounds
These are assessment findings expected during an asthma exacerbation
Fremitus
Percussion
Auscultation
Fremitus - Decrease
Percussion - Hyperresonant
Auscultation - Diminished or wheezing
These are classic symptoms of active TB
Fever spike in the late evening
Hemoptosis
Chills, night sweats
Weight loss
These are assessment findings expected in a pneumothorax
Fremitus
Percussion
Auscultation
Fremitus - Decrease
Percussion - Hyperresonant
Auscultation - Absent breath sounds
These are assessment findings expected during a COPD exacerbation
Fremitus
Percussion
Auscultation
Fremitus - Decrease
Percussion - Hyperresonant
Auscultation - Dimished breath sounds, wheezing
This treatment for obstructive sleep apnea involves a specifically fitted mask to apply pressure and keep the airway
CPAP or BiPAP
