Which of the following heart chambers is correctly associated with the blood vessel that enters or leaves it?
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

Blood enters the heart through the superior vena cava and the inferior vena cava into the right atrium. When the right atrium contracts, this poor oxygen blood flows to the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve. The valve then closes and the right ventricle contracts ejecting blood through the pulmonary trunk and pulmonary arteries to the lungs to be oxygenated.

Pulmonary veins carry oxygen-rich blood from the lungs into the left atrium. Then the atrium contracts and blood flows from your left atrium into your left ventricle through the mitral valve. The valve then closes, the left ventricle contracts and blood leaves the heart through the aortic valve, into the aorta and to the body.

A five-year-old presents to the emergency department with epiglottitis. what is the nurse's first priority?
fredd [130]

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.
