That she is intaking a sufficient amount of oxygen with adequate tidal volume so that her organs remain perfused. If she is not taking in sufficient oxygen she will goninto shock due to the lack of oxygen before seizing, going into Cardiac Arrest, and expiring.
You need to provide some form of supplementary oxygen if she does not have adequate tidal volume and her Spo2 has the potential to get worse so you'd automatically hook her up to oxygen via an NRB. If her respirations begin to fail you provide positive pressure ventilation via BVM.
Answer: Compartment syndrome occurs due to the buildup of pressure caused by internal bleeding or swelling of tissues. Signs that would alert a nurse if a patient was developing compartment syndrome are pain, pallor (pale skin tone), paresthesia (numbness feeling), pulselessness (faint pulse) and paralysis (weakness with movements).
Explanation:
Answer:
<em>His decreased residual volume and decreased lung compliance contribute to his altered ventilation.
</em>
Explanation:
Pneumoconioses are distinguished by reduced residual volume and impaired compliance with the lungs.
Pneumoconiosis involves asbestosis, silicosis, and the pneumoconiosis (CWP) of coal workers.
The most prevalent mineral dusts proven to cause pneumoconiosis in the workplace are asbestos, silica (rock and sand dust), and coal dust.
Cough and shortness of breath are by far the most common symptoms of pneumoconiosis. The threat is usually greater when people are exposed to high levels and/or long periods of time from mineral dusts.
One risk factor is the insufficient or inconsistent usage of personal protective equipment (PPE) such as respirators (specially designed breathing masks), as avoiding inhalation of dusts would also avoid pneumoconiosis.
False. There can be other types of peer pressure as in good influences. Let's say your best friend always gets straight A's, has good manners, does sports, and follows rules. That kind of peer pressure is positive and can rub off on you.
