Formulate nursing care plan using the nursing process as a framework of care. ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OVERVIEW ▪ The respiratory system performs its functions through pulmonary ventilation, respiration, and perfusion. ▪ Normal functioning depends on three essential factors: 1. The integrity of the airway system to transport air to and from the lungs 2. A properly functioning alveolar system in the lungs to oxygenate venous blood and to remove carbon dioxide from the blood 3. A properly functioning cardiovascular and hematologic system to carry nutrients and wastes to and from body cells ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph NON – INVASIVE RESPIRATORY THERAPY 1. Oxygen Therapy 2. Nebulizer Therapy 3. Incentive Spirometry (Sustained Maximal Inspiration) 4. Chest Physiotherapy Note: ▪ Therapy for respiratory conditions range from simple and non-invasive and highly invasive treatment. ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN THERAPY [SUPPLEMENTAL OXYGEN] ▪ an intervention for administering more oxygen than is present in the atmosphere to prevent or relieve hypoxemia [administer O2 @ a concentration greater than that found in the environmental atmosphere] GOAL ▪ Provide adequate transport of oxygen in the blood while decreasing the work of breathing & reducing the stress on myocardium. ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN THERAPY INDICATIONS ▪ Change in patient’s RR or pattern A. HYPOXEMIA ✓ Decrease in in the arterial oxygen tension in the blood [cardiac emergencies] Manifestations 1. Changes in mental status 4. Changes in HR 7. Diaphoresis 2. Dyspnea 5. Dysrhythmias 3. Increase blood pressure 6. Central cyanosis (late sign) ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN THERAPY INDICATIONS B. HYPOXIA ▪ Decrease in oxygen supply to the tissue ▪ can occur from either severe pulmonary disease (inadequate oxygen supply) or from extra-pulmonary disease (inadequate oxygen delivery) e.g. Blood disorders ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN THERAPY INDICATIONS Respiratory Emergencies ▪ Atelectasis, adult RDS impair diffusion, alveolar hypoventilation [O2 administration can reduce pt’s ventilatory effort & boost alveolar oxygen level.] Cardiac emergency ✓ myocardial infarction (MI) or cardiac arrhythmia [O2 administration helps meet the increased myocardial workload.] ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN THERAPY INDICATIONS C. SUPPLEMENTARY O2 ▪ Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) [ 50%) is administered for an extended period (longer than 48 hours) CAUSES ▪ Overproduction of oxygen free radicals Signs & symptoms: 1. Substernal discomfort 3. Dyspnea 5. Fatigue 2. Paresthesia’s 4.Restlessness ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN THERAPY COMPLICATIONS B. SUPPRESSION OF VENTILATION ▪ In COPD, NEVER administer O2 by nasal cannula at more than 2 LPM because some pts become dependent on a state of hypercapnia [too much carbon dioxide (CO2) in the blood, caused by hypoventilation of the body which leads to CO2 retention, elevation in the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) & hypoxia to stimulate their above 45 mm Hg on Arterial Blood Gas readings] respirations, & supplemental O2 could cause them to stop breathing. ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN THERAPY COMPLICATIONS Retrolental Fibroplasia/ retinopathy of prematurity ▪ severe constriction of retinal vessels at the time of high O2 exposure w/c will later result to fibroblastic overgrowth of the retina leading to blindness ▪ Prolonged high concentration of O2 can cause lung injury, surfactant activity may be impaired & increased capillary congestion, edema SYMPTOMS ▪ coughing ▪ substernal discomfort ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN THERAPY Oxygen Toxicity ▪ lung damage develops if 60% of O2 concentration is administered for >24hrs ▪ one theory is 2֯ to reduce surfactant ▪ difficult to reverse BEST PREVENTION ▪ administer the lowest Fraction of Inspired Oxygen (FIO2 ) for the shortest amount of time SYMPTOMS ▪ Cough ▪ Dyspnea ▪ decrease pulmonary ventilation. ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN ADMINISTRATION SYSTEMS CLASSIFICATIONS ▪ Choice depends on client’s oxygen needs, 1. Low Flow Systems comfort & developmental considerations ▪ ABG, pulse oximetry, & clinical examinations 2. High Flow Systems determine the adequacy of O2 therapy. LOW FLOW SYSTEMS ▪ contributes partially to the inspired gas the patient breathes [Nasal Cannula, Oropharyngeal catheter, Simple mask, Partial-rebreather , Non-rebreather mask] ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN ADMINISTRATION SYSTEMS HIGH FLOW SYSYTEMS ▪ Provide the total inspired air ▪ Indicated in patient who requires a constant & precise amount of oxygen [Transtracheal catheters, venturi masks, aerosol masks, tracheostomy collars, T-pieces, & face tents] ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN EQUIPMENT A. FLOWMETER ▪ A device that attaches to the oxygen outlet to adjust the amount of oxygen being delivered B. HUMIDIFIER ▪ Provided by containers of sterile water which maybe prefilled & are disposable ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN EQUIPMENT ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN DEVICES LOW FLOW SYSTEM Oropharyngeal catheter ▪ Rarely used , prescribed for short-term therapy to administer low to moderate concentrations of oxygen Nasal Cannula ▪ Used when the patient requires a low to medium concentration of oxygen for which precise accuracy is not essential ▪ Delivers a low O2 concentration (24-45%) & flow rates of (2-6 L/min) ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN DEVICES OROPHARYNGEAL CATHETER NASAL CANNULA ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN DEVICES ST.

A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN DEVICES KEY TAKEAWAYS Simple mask ▪ The efficiency of any mask is affected by how well it fits the face (O2 leaks thus less O2 concentration). Advantage ✓ higher O2 concentration than cannula; effective for mouth breather & nasal disorders Disadvantage ✓ interferes w/ eating & talking; causes anxiety in claustrophobic patient, @ risk for rebreathing retained CO2 w/in the mask ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN DEVICES PARTIAL REBREATHING MASK ▪ Have a reservoir bag that must remain inflated during both inspiration & expiration ▪ O2 concentration (60-90%) @ flow rates of 6-10L/min. ▪ inhales a mixture of atmospheric air, O2 from its source, O2 contained in the bag. ▪ total deflation of bag is avoided ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN DEVICES KEY TAKEAWAYS [PARTIAL REBREATHING MASK] ▪ allows client to rebreathe 1/3 of exhaled air together w/ O2 and 2/3 of exhaled air ▪ Chances of CO2 build-up, if it happens (increase the FLOW RATE of O2) Advantage ✓ increase amount of O2 w/ lower flows Disadvantage ✓ requires minimum of 6L/min, suffocation, requires monitoring (bag remains inflated all the time) ST. A L E X I U S C O L L E G E www.stalexiuscollege.edu.ph OXYGEN DEVICES NOTE: ▪ Remove the mask and dry the skin every 2 to 3 hours if the oxygen is running continuously. Do not use powder ▪ around the mask. RATIONALE: ▪ The tight-fitting mask and moisture from condensation can irritate the skin on the face.
