The technique made by the nurse is  keeping sterile field above waist level.

<h3>Which technique is made by the nurse to insert an indwelling urinary catheter?</h3>

Similar to an intermittent catheter, an indwelling urinary catheter is implanted, but it is left in place. A water-filled balloon keeps the catheter in the bladder and prevents it from escaping. These catheters are frequently referred to as Foley catheters.

The sole approved usage for indwelling urinary catheters is short-term, or fewer than 30 days (EAUN recommends no longer than 14 days.) Urine incontinence (UI) and urinary retention are two frequent bladder dysfunctions for which the catheter is implanted for continuous bladder drainage.

In order to produce a sterile field, sterile surgical drapes must be placed around the patient's surgical site and on the stand that will contain the sterile instruments and other supplies required for the procedure. The maintenance of a sterile environment is crucial to the prevention of infection. These collection of procedures that are followed before, during, and after invasive procedures help to lower the risk of post-procedure infection by reducing the number of potentially contagious microbes.

Hence, The technique made by the nurse is  keeping sterile field above waist level.

A 68-year-old female who was admitted with shortness of breath. On your arrival, the patient appears drowsy and is on 10L of oxy
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Arterial blood gas (ABG) results from a 68-year-old woman with difficulty breathing show:

  • Oxygenation (PaO₂): hypoxemia
  • pH: acidosis
  • PaCO₂: Hypercapnia
  • HCO₃⁻: normal

whose interpretation is: <u>respiratory acidosis</u>.

Hypercapnia can produce symptoms such as confusion, drowsiness or lethargy, headache, nausea and vomiting and, in severe states, can cause severe unconsciousness and coma.

Explanation:

Respiratory acidosis is due to a failure in the breathing process that produces <u>hypoventilation</u>, decreasing the partial pressure of oxygen (PaO₂) —hypoxemia— and increasing the partial pressure of CO₂ (PaCO₂), called hypercapnia.

  • <u><em>Acidosis</em></u><em> is the result of the accumulation of CO₂ in the body, which is reflected as a decrease in </em><em>pH</em><em> below 7.35, with no change in bicarbonate content.</em>
  • <u><em>Hypoxemia</em></u><em> is the decrease of PaO₂ below 60 mmHg.</em>
  • <u><em>Hypercapnia</em></u><em> is the increase of PaCO₂ in ABG above 45 mmHg.</em>
  • <em>Normal </em><em>bicarbonate</em><em> </em><em>(HCO₃⁻) </em><em>values range from 22 to 28 mEq/L in ABG. This compound can be altered in metabolic acidosis.</em>

<u>Hypercapnia mainly affects the nervous system</u>, producing symptoms that alter the state of consciousness of the affected, also producing headache and even nausea and vomiting.
