A new client has been admitted with right-sided heart failure. When assessing this client, the nurse knows to look for which fin
jarptica [38.1K]

Fluid accumulation is the primary symptom of right-sided heart failure. Your feet, ankles, and legs will swell (edema) as a result of this buildup.

There is either low blood pressure or high blood pressure (130/80 mm Hg or above). Low blood pressure may indicate advanced heart failure. There is a third heart sound, which denotes irregular blood flow via the heart. There may or may not be heart murmurs. Consequently, the right chamber can no longer pump when you develop right-side heart failure. It follows that when your heart cannot pump enough blood, blood backs up into the veins. Your abdomen, ankles, and legs may likely enlarge if this occurs.

A nurse in the intensive care unit is responding to a low-pressure limit mechanical ventilator alarm. The nurse will assess for
slega [8]

The nurse will assess for inadequate tracheostomy tube cuff inflation while responding to a low-pressure limit mechanical ventilator alarm.

  • An alarm for excessive airway pressure indicates an issue with compliance or resistance.
  • To stop the alarm and make sure the patient receives the predetermined number of breaths from the ventilator, turn up the upper limit on the alarm parameter first.

An audible and/or visual alert will trigger if the pressure inside the breathing circuit falls below the Low Airway Pressure Alarm limit specified on the ventilator. Low pressure alerts can be caused by, among other things:

  • The patient's connection to the ventilator circuit breaks.
  • inadequate tracheostomy tube cuff inflation
  • nasal cushions, prongs, or invasive non-masks that don't fit well
  • Circuit and tube connections that are loose
  • The ventilator cannot supply the patient with as much air as they need.

frozen [14]

These water hormones are usually glycoproteins, peptide and catecholamnies such as TSH, FSH, LH and insulin. these hormones need second messengers because there receptors are present on the plasma membrane.

Thus, the correct answer is option - e.  only water-soluble hormones use second messengers.
