Nursing intervention that would be the first priority for the unconscious patient will be to Maintain a patent airway.
<h3>What is a patent airway?</h3>
A patent airway is one that is wide open and unobstructed, allowing the patient to breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. A patent airway does not imply that a patient has normal breathing; it merely means that oxygen can be given to the patient in an emergency without the need for surgical repair of the airway. Speaking and alert patients should have a patent airway and be able to breathe with the aid of a nasal cannula, a face mask, or a nebulizer.
Simply explained, airflow moving to and from the respiratory system through the oral and nasal passages is what is meant by airway patency. Anatomical or physiological changes that restrict airflow, as well as foreign objects like tracheostomy tubes, may have an effect on the patency of the airways.
