(Print)
helps to protect respiratory mucosa; not recommended for 4L or less
hyperoxygenate for a minimum of
help loosen & mobilize secretions
oxygenated capillary blood passes through body tissues
open narrowed airways
result in decreased airway narrowing during expiration & prevent collapse of small airways; creates smaller opening for air movement
belly breathing; helps to control breathing
movement of air in & out of lungs
acts as reservoir; used with MDI
max suctioning for adults
alveoli collapse
decrease inflammation in airways
lower chambers of heart
upper chambers of heart
death of heart tissue due to lack of O2
insufficient O2 in blood
measures vol. of air exhaled or inhaled
soft, high-pitched intermittent popping sounds; indicate fluid
if disconnected from drainage unit, submerge in bottle of sterile saline or water; clamping could cause PTX
depress cough reflex
used to measure severity of asthma & degree of mismanagement
used to maintain a patent airway & remove secretions
uses dry powder form of med; actuated by patient's inspiration
amt of blood pumped per min. SV X HR
natural pacemaker of heart
propel trapped material toward upper airway to be expelled via cough
inadequate amount of O2 available to cells
max amount of time to suction
phospholipid; helps to prevent alveoli collapse
used to administer O2 via mechanical ventilator
provides continuous mild air pressure to keep airways open
amount of blood forced out of the LV with each contraction
delivers highest concentration of O2 via a low flow mask; used in emergent situations
alternative to means of this is important in patients with tracheostomy
continuous musical sounds; due to constriction , such as asthma
bronchodilator; may cause tremors, palpitations, HTN
gas exchange
best position for dyspnea to help promote respiration
used during tracheal suctioning
max amt of air forcefully exhaled
measures peripheral arterial oxyHgb saturation of arterial blood (SpO2)
measure CO2 level in expired gas
in skeletal & cardiac muscle fibers; released after heart injury
promotes improved oxygenation of posterior dependent areas of lungs
important part of preventing respiratory infections
21% of oxygen
heart is unable to pump sufficient blood supply
small air sacs; site of gas exchange
proved effective in reducing cardiac arrest related deaths
inserting needle into pleural space to aspirate fluid air or both
drugs that facilitate the removal of respiratory tract secretions by thinning them
major risk factor in cardiopulmonary diseases
to be done prior to suctioning the patient
must monitor serum levels; bronchodilator'
decreased O2 supply to the heart due to insufficient blood supply
