Pulse oximetry is the measure of oxygen in your blood. 81% is NOT normal.

A normal level of oxygen is usually 95% or higher. Some people with chronic lung disease or sleep apnea can have normal levels around 90%.

A five-year-old presents to the emergency department with epiglottitis. what is the nurse's first priority?

A five-year-old presents to the emergency department with epiglottitis

the nurse's first priority should be control of anxiety,facilitation of learning, Medications, and Hydration.

<h3>Epiglottis</h3>

The throat's epiglottis, a leaf-shaped flap, serves to keep food and liquids out of the windpipe and the lungs. When breathing, it remains open, allowing air to enter the larynx. It closes during swallowing to stop food from being inhaled into the lungs, forcing any liquids or food to travel down the esophagus and toward the stomach.

<h3>Interventions in Nursing</h3>

For a child with epiglottitis, the nursing interventions are:

  • control of anxiety:- The family should demonstrate personal activities that will help the youngster get rid of or lessen emotions of anxiety and stress that are coming from an unknown source.
  • facilitation of learning:- In addition to encouraging progress in the patient's capacity and openness to accept information, the nurse should support their ability to process and comprehend information.
  • Medications:- As directed, give antibiotics such as cefuroxime.
  • Hydration:- Since the child couldn't swallow, adjust the IV fluid as necessary.

What is the difference between a table and a pill?.
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Tablets have a longer shelf life and come in a variety of forms. They can also accommodate a higher dose of an active ingredient than a capsule. They tend to be slower acting and, in some cases, may disintegrate unevenly in your body. Capsules act quickly and most, if not all, of the drug is absorbed
