Guidelines to prevent disease transmission for patients with infections.

Used for infections like RSV and Scabies requiring gowns and gloves.

For diseases like Strep Throat; involves wearing a surgical mask.

For highly contagious diseases requiring an N95 mask and negative pressure rooms.

Used for immunocompromised clients; involves positive airflow and no plants.

Wear gloves when contacting blood, bodily fluids, or non-intact skin.

Critical to perform hand hygiene before and after client interaction to reduce germs.

Infections from medical care like CAUTI and SSI; costly with serious implications.

Issues like decreased air exchange, pneumonia risk, atelectasis, and thicker sputum.

Conditions such as malnutrition, constipation, GERD, and impaction.

Problems including urinary retention and renal calculi.

Issues like loss of mobility affecting self-esteem, roles, and isolation.

Conditions like osteoporosis, muscle atrophy, and joint contractures.

Bending a joint, reducing the angle between bones.

Straightening a joint to increase the angle between bones.

Abduction is moving away from the body; adduction is moving towards the body.

Fever, chills, increased pulse, malaise, fatigue, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, cramping, diarrhea, enlarged lymph nodes.

Includes redness, warmth, edema, pain, loss of use of the affected area.

First stage: Serous (clear). Second stage: Sanguineous (RBC). Third stage: Purulent (leukocytes and bacteria).

Actions include proper handwashing, sterilization, and isolating infected patients.

Include multidisciplinary assessment, non-skid footwear, adequate lighting, and fall education.

Applied to prevent harm; must be snug but not too tight. Requires monitoring.

Remove persons in danger, activate alarms, and close doors/windows.

Two identifiers are required to confirm patient identity.

Call for help, protect the head, clear dangerous objects, monitor airway and vitals.

No smoking, keep flames away, and turn off O2 in fires.

Stand close to the object, keep abdominal muscles contracted, and avoid twisting.

Normal BP is 120/80 mm Hg.

Stage 1: 130-139/80-89 mm Hg; Stage 2: >140/>90 mm Hg; Crisis: >180/>120 mm Hg.

Diagnosed by a significant BP drop upon changing positions.

Cessation of breathing often due to opioid overdose or heart failure.

Cyclical breathing pattern ranging from shallow to deep with pauses.

Deep, rapid, and regular breathing often seen in diabetic ketoacidosis.

The common sites to check pulse: Temporal, Carotid, Brachial, Femoral, Popliteal, Dorsalis Pedis, Posterior Tibial.

Documentation scale: 0 = Absent, +1 = Weak, +2 = Normal, +3 = Strong, +4 = Bounding.

Normal levels of oxygen in blood range from 95% to 100%.

Actions include auscultating lungs, providing higher flow oxygen, monitoring for respiratory arrest, and possible intubation.

Common sites include Temporal, Axillary, Rectal, Tympanic, and Oral.

Active ROM involves client movement; Passive ROM is without client's help.

Patient lies flat on their back, face up.

Crutches should be 1-2 inches below axilla with a 15-30 degree elbow angle.

Ensure equipment is locked; support under arms or use a gait belt.

Complications include DVT, pressure injuries, and cardiac issues due to decreased movement.

Reposition every 2 hours, use cushions, monitor symptoms, assist with movement.

Rectal is the most accurate; Temporal is easy but less precise.
