A nurse is questioned about a long-acting beta2-agonist drug by a patient who experiences persistent, recurrent asthma exacerbations. As prophylactic, the glucocorticoid is used to stop exacerbations.

  • Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease that affects a lot of people. In wealthy nations, it is viewed as a major cause of morbidity and a major contributor to the high cost of healthcare.
  • The two main pathogenic characteristics of asthmatics' airways are inflammation and hyperresponsiveness.
  • Treatment for asthma should be intensified gradually in order to regulate the condition, both for symptom relief and to avoid exacerbations.
  • This methodical approach, which begins with low dose inhaled corticosteroids and progresses, if necessary, to inhaled corticosteroids combined with long-acting -agonists, will control the majority of instances of asthma.

the nurse is preparing to irrigate a client's indwelling urinary catheter using an open technique. what action should the nurse
Ymorist [56]

The nurse should first put on gloves before drawing up the irrigation solution into the syringe in order to irrigate an indwelling urinary catheter.

The fluid is then infused using an aseptic method after the syringe is connected to the catheter. The client's catheter needs to be attached to the drainage tube after the irrigation solution has been administered. When intake and output measurements are given, the urinary drainage bag can be emptied, and the irrigating fluid can then be deducted from the output.

A basic human function, the evacuation of urine, can be hampered by disease, surgery, and other circumstances. In individuals who are unable to void naturally, urinary catheterization may be performed to promote urine elimination. It might be necessary to catheterize the urine:

1. When there is sudden urinary retention

2. When intake and outflow are being tracked

3. For preoperative management

4. to speed up healing in patients with incontinence who have open sacral and perineal wounds

5. for patients undergoing extended bed rest

6. For clients in need of care at the end of life
