Shortness of breath, paitents may also use inhalded bronchodilators. Emphysema and Chronic Bronchitis is a form of COPD. When adminstring oxgen the patient may experience hypoventilation or even respiratory arrest. Be alreat when giving oxygen to a COPD patient. Oxygen should not be withheld for COPD patients in shock, altered mental status or in severe respiratior distress.

a cough that is present for atleast 3 months per year for atleast 2 years. Produces phlegm and auscultation of breath sounds may reveal wheezing or crackles.

Air traps in the patients lungs resulting in barrel chest. An apperance of pink in the skin resulting from an increase number of red blood cells in hemoglobin.

upper respirtory tract infection. Common cold symptons. Fever and cough with the production of thick, colored sputum (containing pus). Chills. Complaints of Dyspnea, pain that increases with breathing or coughing, Crackles and dimished sounds.

Diffculty breathing and chest pain that increases with breathing. May cough up bloody sputum. Calf tenderness, recent history of surgery. prolonged bed rest, and phlebitis of the leg veins. (rapid pulse and signs of shock)

Shortness of breath, tingling in the mouth and fingers.

Dimished breath sounds on one side, distened neck veins as the vena cava is collapsed, low blood pressure, and deviation of the trachea to the other side

weakness or altered mental status, anxitey and restlessness, pale, cool and clammy skin. rapid, weak pulse.

intense pain such as crushing, pressing, tight, viselike, heavy, aching, or constricting. anterior chest and often radiates to the neck, jaw, either arm or shoulder (more often left). Pain last for several minutes often more than 30 and relived with rest or nitro.

tearing, ripping or searing abdominal or back pain that localizes to the back. usually older and my have a history of hypertension or a known aneurysm. sensation of needing to move their bowls.

you should perform 5 cycles of cpr, check a pulse and reanalyze.

Continuous CPR is provided, Approximately 8-10 breaths per minute.

At least one inch to the side.

crowning is evident, bloody show, contractions are strong, less than 2 minutes apart, and last 60-90 seconds, need to move bowels, strong urge to push.

one minute after birth and repeated 5 minutes after birth

apperance, pulse, grimace, activity, respirations

Apperance: blue=0, pink with blue extremties=1 pink=2

Pulse: absent=0, less than 100 beats=1, more than 100=2

Grimace: no response=0, grimace=1, Vigorous cry= 2

Activity: limp=0, some flexion=1, flexed limbs= 2

Respirations: not breathing=0, weak respirations=1, crying=2

Suction the babies mouth and transport the mother while supporting the babies head

Transport the patient on left side with with the hips elevated, and high concentrate oxygen

3 minutes, and put hand in vagina and elevate the babies head off the vagina so they can breathe

put mother on left side, elevate hips and provide high concentration oxygen.

elevate the mothers hips with pillows, or place in knee chest position. put hand in vagina and elevate the babies head, rapid transport and high concentration oxygen

defined as blood loss greater than 500 ml after delivery

begin 4-6 weeks in pregnancy, amenorrhea (abesent of menstrual periods) localized abdominal pain that may radiate to the shoulder area. Ectopic pregnancy is often mistaken for appendicitis.

Epinephrine response, Arteries constrict to maintain blood pressure, reducing flow to skin, gut and muscle, increased heart rate. Rapid and thready  pulse. cool, pale, clammy skin. Thrist, weakness, Fainting or dizzyness. Anxiety, rapid shallow breathing. Delayed capillary refilling time. Blood pressure may be normal

Decompensation, cardiac output falls  to half of normal. Hypotension, deteriorated mental status, combativness, restlessness, rapid, shallow respirations
