Explanation / Answer

Q2. a)

Nasal Cannula: It is easy to apply and does not interfere with patients eating or taking ability

Simple face mask: It covers nose & mouth as well as the advantages is simple to use & inexpensive

Partial Rebreather Mask: it increases FiO2 by recycling the expired O2 The advantages is to supply moderate O2

Non- rebreather mask: Delivers highest possible conc of O2 as well as one way valve containing

Venture mask: constant flow of air with uniform O2 concentration

transtracheal catheter: advantages of oxygen concentrator along it can never-ending delivery of portable oxygen

Tacheostomy collar : provides a small, secure connection to the airway with nebulizer system

T- bar: allow delivery of fresh oxygen each time in each cycle

Safety precautions to be observed when performing endotracheal suctioning:

Always preoxygenate the patient

Never suction for more than 10 seconds at a time.

Always be certain suction is turned on before inserting the catheter

Always maintain sterility of the suction catheter and supplies

Five symptoms that indicate the patient should be accesed for possible hypoxia :

Nursing responsibilities for the patient undergoing pulse oximetry:

Nurses should take consideration of the factors that might affect SpO2 readings, such as anaemia, peripheral vasoconstriction, dark skin tone & skin discoloration.

If patient movement is the problem, it is required for the nurse to move the probe or select a different probe.

It is further advised to use the bridge of the nose if the patient has compromised circulation in his extremities.

Thus these considerations will be useful for the nurses during such care
