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