Who reveices venturi mask?
COPD patient
What is the primary respiratory drive for a patient with COPD?
Hypoxic drive.
Why copd patient cannot apply oxygen more than 4 liter per minute?
because elasticity of alveoli is diminished in patient with COPD therefore administering more than 4liters/minute will collapse alveoli and patient may die.
Which end goes up when placing a bedpan?
When placing a bedpan, the wider end should be positioned at the patient's feet, while the narrower end should be positioned toward the head. This design allows for better comfort and ease of use for the patient. Additionally, ensuring proper placement helps prevent spills and enhances the patient's experience during use.
What is the normal pulse for a COPD patient?
intermittent temperature according to the condition
When administering oxygen in a patient with COPD you should?
When administering oxygen to a patient with COPD, it is essential to start with low flow rates, typically between 1 to 2 liters per minute, to avoid suppressing their respiratory drive. Monitor the patient's oxygen saturation closely and aim for a target SpO2 of 88-92%. Careful titration is important to prevent hypercapnia and potential respiratory acidosis. Always consult with a healthcare provider regarding specific oxygen therapy protocols for COPD patients.
Where should the operatory light be positioned during dental treatment?
36 inches or approx 3 ft from the patient's face.
What is the maximum percentage of oxygen a COPD patient should receive in an emergency and why?
In an emergency, the maximum percentage of oxygen a COPD patient should typically receive is around 24-28%, often administered through a venturi mask. This is important because excessive oxygen can lead to carbon dioxide retention (hypercapnia) due to the patient's altered respiratory drive, potentially resulting in respiratory failure. Monitoring of oxygen saturation is crucial to ensure adequate oxygenation while preventing complications.
What is the goal O2 sat for end stage COPD patient?
88 to 93 o2
What would be the best rate of O2 for a patient with COPD?
2 liters per minute
How is the patient positioned for a cone biopsy?
The procedure is performed with the patient lying on her back with her legs in stirrups.
Which projection has the patient positioned at the right angles of the film?
Lateral
