2022/23

further teaching?
1. “If I lose weight I may not need treatment for sleep apnea.”

Drinking alcohol before sleep sedates the client, causing the muscles to relax, which, in turn,
causes an obstruction of the client's airway. Drinking alcohol should be avoided even if the
client uses a CPAP machine.
The client diagnosed with ARDS is transferred to the intensive care department and placed on
a ventilator. Which intervention should the nurse implement first?
1. Confirm that the ventilator settings are correct.
2. Verify that the ventilator alarms are functioning properly.
3. Assess the respiratory status and pulse oximeter reading.
4. Monitor the client's arterial blood gas results.
3. Assess the respiratory status and pulse oximeter reading.
Assessment is the first part of the nursing process and is the first intervention the nurse should
implement when caring for a client on a ventilator.

a complication secondary to the ventilator?
1. The client's urine output is 100 mL in four (4) hours.
2. The pulse oximeter reading is greater than 95%.
3. The client has asymmetrical chest expansion.
4. The telemetry reading shows sinus tachycardia.

complication of mechanical ventilation.

the nursing care plan addressing the endotracheal tube (ET) care?

2. Obtain a chest x-ray daily.
3. Determine if the ET cuff is deflated.
