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.

Answer:

The correct answer to the question: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary diseases (COPD), include:____, would be, D: a and b are correct.

Explanation:

COPD, or best known as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonay Disorder, is the general name given to a disease in which the lungs are incapable of performing their task of oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange, because of an obstruction either of the airways, or the alveoli, which are the sacks in which the actual exchange takes place. This obstruction can happen either because of an overproduction of mucus, or because the airways become fibrous, and therefore, oxygen cannot be exchanged. The other reason is when the alveoli are damaged and destroyed and air sacks form in the lungs. In COPD, we have two types: Chronic Bronchitis, in which due to continuous coughing, and mucus production, the bronchi become inflamed and fibrous and therefore exchange is much more difficult. In the second form, we have emphysema, in which the constant coughing starts affecting the lining of the alveoli, until it can literally be destroyed and pockets of air can form inside the actual lung tissue.
