Question

a client who is receiving mechanical ventilation is anxious and is ""fighting"" the ventilator. which action should the nurse take first?

Answer 1

The nurse should firstly try to reduce the anxiety of the patient who is anxious and is ""fighting"" the ventilator and teach about how to breath with the mechanical ventilation on.

Anxiety is the response to stress. The person suffers with extreme tension and fear of something. The general symptoms of anxiety are: nervousness, breathlessness, sweating, trembling, sudden weakness, etc.

Mechanical ventilation is the process of providing artificial breaths to the patient when he./she is unable to breathe on their own. This is usually required when a person has some severe disease or right after the surgery. The ventilation can be accompanied by severe infections.
