    Study Notes

    Monitoring Data

    • Pulmonary Mechanics: Includes maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP), maximum expiratory pressure (MEP), and vital capacity.
    • Respiratory Monitoring: Evaluates respiratory rate, tidal volume, minute volume, inspiratory-to-expiratory (I:E) ratio, inspiratory and expiratory pressures, and flow, volume and pressure waveforms.
    • Lung Function: Measures lung compliance, airway resistance, and work of breathing.
    • Blood Gas Analysis: Involves arterial, umbilical, and/or central venous blood gas analysis, co-oximetry, and calculation of P(A-a)O2.
    • Other Assessments: Includes electrocardiography (ECG), echocardiography, pulse oximetry, and transcutaneous oxygen/carbon dioxide (O2/CO2) monitoring.

    Clinical Information Collection

    • Patient Assessment: Observes general appearance, muscle wasting, venous distention, peripheral edema, diaphoresis, digital clubbing, cyanosis, and capillary refill. Also checks for pneumothorax, subcutaneous emphysema, consolidation, and atelectasis.
    • Monitoring Devices: Includes oxygen administration devices (nasal cannula, mask, reservoir mask, face tents, transtracheal oxygen catheter, oxygen conserving cannulas, air-entrainment devices, tracheostomy collar), CPAP devices, humidifiers (bubble, passover, cascade, wick, heat moisture exchanger), aerosol generators (pneumatic and ultrasonic nebulizers), and resuscitation devices (manual resuscitator, pneumatic demand-valve, mouth-to-valve mask).

    Respiratory Care Plan Development

    • Plan Appropriateness: Evaluates if the prescribed respiratory care plan is appropriate and suggests modifications if necessary.
    • Data Analysis: Analyze available data to determine the patient's pathophysiological state.
    • Equipment Malfunctions: Identifies and corrects malfunctions of oxygen administration devices, humidifiers, aerosol generators, resuscitation devices, ventilators, CPAP/PEEP valve assembly, artificial airways, suctioning devices, gas delivery mechanisms, and other respiratory equipment.
    • Quality Control Procedures: Includes quality control of blood gas analyzers, suctioning techniques, aerosol therapy, and bronchopulmonary hygiene techniques instruction.
    • Patient Response: Monitors and interprets patient responses to therapy, noting effects, adverse reactions, and subjective/attitudinal responses
    • Equipment types: Includes manometers, respirometers, ECG devices, vacuum systems, metered-dose inhalers (MDIs), small particle aerosol generators (SPAGs), incentive spirometers , percussors, vibrators, and various types of ventilators, and artificial airways (Oro-nasopharyngeal, endotracheal, and tracheostomy).
