18 Questions
Match the types of breathing patterns with their corresponding characteristics:
Biot's Breathing = Irregular cycle, fast & shallow respirations followed by apnea seen in brain/neuro injury. Cheyne-Stokes Respirations = Regular cycle, respirations increase & decrease until apnea, can be seen in end of life or brain injury. Kussmaul Respirations = Fast & Abnormally deep respirations seen in diabetic ketoacidosis. Apnea = Periods of cessation of breathing, life-threatening.
Match the interventions that promote circulation with their corresponding descriptions:
Elevate legs above the heart = Increases blood flow to the heart. Encourage frequent ambulation = Prevents blood stasis and promotes blood circulation. Ensure use of antiemboli stockings = Prevents blood clot formation in the legs. Teach to avoid sitting with legs crossed = Prevents compression of blood vessels in the legs.
Match the following interventions with their benefits for patients without respiratory illness:
Elevate legs above the heart = Promotes circulation. Perform ROM exercises if nonambulatory = Prevents blood stasis and promotes circulation. Teach to avoid sitting with legs crossed = Promotes circulation. Ensure use of antiemboli stockings = Prevents blood clot formation in the legs.
Match the breathing patterns with their corresponding causes:
Biot's Breathing = Brain/neuro injury. Cheyne-Stokes Respirations = End of life or brain injury. Kussmaul Respirations = Diabetic ketoacidosis. Apnea = Unknown or life-threatening conditions.
Match the interventions with their benefits for patients with respiratory illness:
Encourage frequent ambulation = Improves lung function and increases oxygenation. Perform ROM exercises if nonambulatory = Prevents respiratory complications and promotes lung function. Teach to avoid sitting with legs crossed = Prevents respiratory complications. Ensure use of antiemboli stockings = Prevents respiratory complications due to blood clot formation.
Match the breathing patterns with their corresponding consequences:
Biot's Breathing = Brain damage or death. Cheyne-Stokes Respirations = Respiratory failure or death. Kussmaul Respirations = Respiratory acidosis and death. Apnea = Brain damage or death.
Match the following respiratory rates with their corresponding descriptions:
Respiratory rate of 10 = Eupnea Respiratory rate of 30 = Tachypnea Respiratory rate of 120 = Bradypnea Heart rate of 120 = Tachycardia
Match the following breathing difficulties with their corresponding causes:
Stridor = Emergency due to partial airway obstruction Grunting = Moisture in alveoli heard in CHF patients Rhonchi = Air moving through mucus in large airways common in COPD Wheezing = Air passing through narrow airways, often on expiration, musical sound, common in asthma
Match the following anesthesia effects with their corresponding descriptions:
Excess levels = Cause anesthetic effect on nervous system Low levels = Increase respiratory rate Normal levels = Maintain eupnea Deficient levels = Lead to respiratory failure
Match the following blood gas analysis results with their corresponding interpretations:
Low arterial blood oxygen = Hypoxemia High arterial blood oxygen = Hypoxia Normal arterial blood oxygen = Eupnea Respiratory acidosis = High PaCO2
Match the following oxygen therapy methods with their corresponding indications:
Chest physiotherapy = To loosen and clear bronchial mucus Oxygen mask = To increase oxygen saturation in CHF patients Nasal cannula = To provide supplemental oxygen in COPD patients Ventilator = To support breathing in respiratory failure
Match the following respiratory sounds with their corresponding causes:
Crackles/Rales = Moisture in alveoli heard in CHF patients Rhonchi = Air moving through mucus in large airways common in COPD Wheezing = Air passing through narrow airways, often on expiration, musical sound, common in asthma Frition rub = Pleural layers inflamed
Match the following medical devices with their primary usage:
Peak expiratory flowmeter (PEFM) = Measures the peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) Incentive spirometer = Designed to help prevent respiratory complications of immobility Nebulizer = Delivers aerosol spray medication via a mouthpiece Tidal volume device = Measures the volume of air inhaled and exhaled with each normal breath
Match the following respiratory rates with their characteristics:
Eupnea = Quiet, rhythmic, and effortless breathing within the expected rate per minute for age Tachypnea = Rapid breathing rate Bradypnea = Slow breathing rate Dyspnea = Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath
Match the following medical procedures with their purposes:
Blood gas analysis = Measures oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in the blood Oxygen therapy = Provides supplemental oxygen to improve respiratory function Anesthesia administration = Induces a state of unconsciousness for medical procedures Spirometry = Measures lung function and respiratory capacity
Match the following respiratory complications with their causes:
Respiratory failure = Ventilatory or oxygenation failure Hypoxemia = Low oxygen levels in the blood Hypoxia = Low oxygen levels in the tissues Pneumonia = Infection of the lungs
Match the following breathing difficulties with their characteristics:
Dyspnea = Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath Orthopnea = Difficulty breathing while lying down Paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea = Sudden, severe shortness of breath at night Tachypnea = Rapid breathing rate
Match the following oxygen therapy methods with their administration routes:
Nasal cannula = Delivers oxygen through the nose Oxygen mask = Delivers oxygen through a face mask Ventilator = Mechanically assists breathing through an endotracheal tube Reservoir mask = Delivers oxygen through a mask with a reservoir bag
