,
, Independently caring for the laryngectomy tube indicates that the patient has regained control of
personal care and hopelessness is at least partially resolved.
Letting the nurse and spouse provide care and requesting no visitors may indicate that the patient is still
experiencing hopelessness.
.
The nurse completes discharge instructions for a patient with a total laryngectomy. Which statement by
the patient indicates that additional instruction is needed?
a. I must keep the stoma covered with an occlusive dressing at all times.
b. I can participate in most of my prior fitness activities except swimming.
c. I should wear a Medic-Alert bracelet that identifies me as a neck breather.
d. I need to be sure that I have smoke and carbon monoxide detectors installed.
A
The stoma may be covered with clothing or a loose dressing, but this is not essential. An occlusive
dressing will completely block the patients airway.
The other patient comments are all accurate and indicate that the teaching has been effective.
.
, A nurse is caring for a patient who has had a total laryngectomy and radical neck dissection. During the
first 24 hours after surgery what is the priority nursing action?
a. Monitor for bleeding.
b. Maintain adequate IV fluid intake.
c. Suction tracheostomy every eight hours.
d. Keep the patient in semi-Fowlers position.
D
The most important goals after a laryngectomy and radical neck dissection are to maintain the airway
and ensure adequate oxygenation. Keeping the patient in a semi-Fowlers position will decrease edema
and limit tension on the suture lines to help ensure an open airway.
Maintenance of IV fluids and monitoring for bleeding are important, but maintaining an open airway is
the priority. Tracheostomy care and suctioning should be provided as needed. During the immediate
postoperative period, the patient with a laryngectomy requires frequent suctioning of the tracheostomy
tube.
Following a laryngectomy a patient coughs violently during suctioning and dislodges the tracheostomy
tube. Which action should the nurse take first?
a. Cover stoma with sterile gauze and ventilate through stoma.
