<span>The most common airway obstruction is the tongue. It blocks the upper airway causing asphyxiation in many patients who are comatose or have suffered cardiopulmonary arrest. An airway obstruction is considered to be life-threatening and should get immediate medical attention. The severity of the obstruction varies on a case to case basis and a people should be aware how to properly perform first aid to avoid further complications. If a person has not been able to breathe a possible tracheotomy will be performed by the rescuer as a quick response. This is to enable the passage of air back to the brain. </span>

Neko [114]

A nurse is caring for a 4 year old client with a closed head injury. Changes in vital signs and altered mental status are some clinical manifestations would suggest deterioration in this client's condition.

Clinical signs of deterioration in this patient's condition are :

  • changes in vital signs
  • altered mental status
  • increased intracranial pressure
  • altered pupillary response, postural
  • bradycardia, decreased motor response
  • decreased sensory response
  • Cheyne-Stokes respiration
  • coma

A closed head injury is an injury to the head that does not cause a skull fracture.

Strenuous movement can damage the  brain and soft tissues. This can cause bleeding and swelling in the head.  

Deterioration is a process of progressive degradation.  

The main factors influencing the risk of exacerbation in  patients with brain injury are age, anticoagulant therapy, and early GCS.  

These studies also showed that the presence of the centerline shift/mass effect indicated adverse outcomes. In contrast, patients with isolated subarachnoid hemorrhage (iSAH) have the lowest risk of side effects.
