Across
- 1. airwway ___ elasticity/expandability of lungs
- 3. diagnose or treat lung condition, direct visualization of lungs. Informed consent, NPO, preop meds, conscious sedation, NPO until gag reflex is back
- 4. 4-8L
- 7. breathing. Moving air in and out of the lungs.
- 8. is the actual blood flow across the pulmonary vasculature
- 9. better able to distinguish normal versus abnormal tissue. Consider tight space, impants, patches
- 11. densities produced by fluid, tumors, bodies, and other conditions. Hold breath. Standing or sitting
- 13. Timing: rinse mouth with water, clear nasal mucus, take 2-3 breaths and cough into diaphragm, spit into container. Occur BEFORE start of antibiotic
- 14. breathing out
- 17. nursing ___ for pulmonary embolism; O2, IV, anxiety/pain management, assess bleeding risk, lab monitoring, anticoagulants, streptokinase, embolectomy
- 19. fine tissue densities and detect those not seen in xray. Can examine vasculature. NPO 4 hrs with contrast
- 20. 10-15L
- 22. interventions include, antibiotics, airway clearance, prevention, semi/high fowlers
- 23. spreading of CO2 and O2 across alveolar capillary membrane
- 24. 8-11 L
- 25. scan gold standard for PE
- 26. decrease O2 in tissue
Down
- 2. breathing in
- 5. gas exchanged between air and blood at cellular level. Venous blood goes to lungs and has a higher amount of CO2, so it crosses to alveoli and oxygen then goes to blood from there.
- 6. what are these for lung cancer;none until late, chronic cough, dypnea, COPD, hemoptysis, chest or shoulder pain, hoarseness, weakness, anorexia, weight loss
- 10. airway __ : size of the airway (inflammation obstruction, tumor)
- 12. interventions include,IS use, TCDB, early ambulation, avoid sedation, encourage fluids
- 15. measures CO2
- 16. buildup of CO2 in blood
- 18. decrease O2 in blood
- 21. assessment = sudden onset of dyspnea, pleuritic chest pain, tachypnea, hemoptysis
