what is the normal urine output ? correct answer: 40ml/hour when the patient cvp > 2mmhg correct answer: indicate hypovolemia when a patient only responds to pianful stimuli correct answer: semicomatose this is consider when a patient has sleep apnea or excessive 02 therapy especially in patients with copd. correct answer: lethargy/ somnolense pitting edema occurs primarly in the ankles and arms and it is caused CHF/renal faliure when a patient is giving a rate +1 +2 +3 the hi...

Normal Urine Output - 40mL/hr (approximatley 1 Liter a day) Intake exceeds output - -weight gain -electrolyte imbalance -increased hemodynamic pressures -decreased lung compliance Central Venous Pressure (CVP) - can indicate changes in fluid balance Normal CVP - 2-6mmHg or 4-12cmH20 -decreased CVP can indicate hypovalemia (fluid therapy) -increased CVP can indicate hypervalemia (diuretics) Stuporous, confused , sleepy - consider sleep apnea or excessive O2 therapy (COPD patient) Semico...

What are the 4 critical life function? - Ventilation, Oxygenation, Circulation, and Perfussion. What vital signs should a RT examine to evaluate ventilation?
