Bag & mask equipment
This document discusses positive pressure ventilation for compromised newborns during resuscitation. There are two types of resuscitation bags - flow inflating bags and self inflating bags. Flow inflating bags require an oxygen source and tight seal to inflate properly, while self inflating bags can deliver positive pressure without an external oxygen source but require a reservoir to provide 100% oxygen. The document also covers recommended bag sizes, pressure valves, masks and testing procedures for the bags.
Manual respiratory bypass
Manual respiratory bypass (MRB), also known as a bag valve mask (BVM), is a hand-held device used to provide ventilation to patients who are not breathing adequately. It consists of an ambu bag, valve, and face mask. The ambu bag was developed in the 1950s and works by using a one-way valve to direct gas from the bag into the patient's lungs when compressed. MRB is commonly used in emergency situations until a patient can breathe on their own or more advanced care is available. It provides oxygenation and ventilation by sealing the face mask and squeezing the ambu bag to inflate the lungs.
one lung ventillation, problem based learning
One-lung ventilation (OLV) involves separating the lungs so each functions independently using devices like double-lumen endotracheal tubes (DLTs) or bronchial blockers. DLTs have two lumens and cuffs to isolate each mainstem bronchus. The most commonly used DLT is the Robertshaw tube, which comes in sizes from 28-41 French. Placement is confirmed with auscultation and fiberoptic bronchoscopy. Complications include impaired oxygenation and airway trauma. Bronchial blockers like the Univent tube can also achieve OLV but require a single-lumen tube. Wire-guided bronchial blockers are advantageous for difficult airways but do not allow su

Preoperative assessment for cardio thoracic surgery
This document provides guidance on preoperative assessment for cardiothoracic surgery. It outlines key areas to evaluate including pulmonary function, lung mechanics, gas exchange, and cardiopulmonary reserve. A comprehensive assessment involves spirometry, arterial blood gases, exercise testing, imaging, and considering factors like predicted postoperative lung function. The goal is to identify risks for postoperative respiratory and cardiac complications so high-risk patients can be optimized or potentially alternative treatment considered.
Bag and mask Ventilation
Bag and mask ventilation is a basic airway management technique used to oxygenate and ventilate patients until a more definitive airway can be established. It involves manually squeezing an ambu bag attached to a face mask to deliver breaths. Key aspects of bag and mask ventilation include maintaining a proper seal and head position, delivering appropriate volume and rate of breaths, and assessing ventilation effectiveness through chest rise and oxygen saturation. While bag and mask is preferred for prehospital airway support in pediatrics, it has limitations and risks if ventilation is inadequate or contraindications like upper airway obstruction are present.
Suction
Suction is frequently used to remove secretions from the lungs in intubated or tracheostomy patients unable to cough effectively. Proper suction equipment includes pumps, tubing, connections, and catheters. Pumps can be wall vacuum, electrical, portable battery-powered, or foot pumps. Tubing leads from pumps to connections, usually Y-connectors. Catheters come in soft plastic or rubber and range in size but should not exceed half the tube diameter. Proper suction technique minimizes trauma and hypoxia through controlled pressure and timing.

Suctioning is used to remove secretions from intubated patients and those unable to cough effectively. It should be done as quickly, gently, and cleanly as possible to minimize trauma while only performing when necessary. All necessary equipment should be prepared, including sterile catheters, lubricant, and collection materials. Suctioning is indicated for audible secretions, changes in ventilator pressures or volumes, or before releasing a cuff. Risks include trauma, hypoxia, cardiovascular effects, and atelectasis, so suctioning time should be minimized and oxygenation supported. Proper technique depends on the site being suctioned and maintains sterility.

Suction machines are devices used to remove substances like blood, mucus, and vomit from a person's airway. They use pumps powered by electricity or foot pedals to create suction through pistons and air tight chambers. Suction machines are used in medical settings and homes to clear airways and facilitate breathing by removing excess secretions. They require training to properly operate and maintain in order to safely suction from the mouth, nose, or trachea while monitoring the patient.

1. Airway suctioning is used to clear secretions from intubated or mechanically ventilated patients who cannot cough effectively. It requires specialized equipment like suction pumps, tubing, catheters and connections.
2. Suction can be performed through the nose, mouth or an endotracheal/tracheostomy tube. The catheter is inserted until resistance is felt and suction is applied intermittently while withdrawing the catheter.
3. Risks of suctioning include infection, trauma, hypoxia, arrhythmias and atelectasis, so a sterile technique and careful application of suction is important to minimize complications.
(7) NasoGastric Tube (NGT).pptx
1. Naso-gastric tube insertion involves passing a tube through the nose and into the stomach to provide liquid nutrition or remove gastric contents when oral intake is not possible.
2. The procedure requires various equipment including a naso-gastric tube, syringe, lubricant, and stethoscope. The client is positioned upright and the tube is measured and marked for insertion.
3. After lubricating the tip of the tube, it is slowly inserted through the nose while the client swallows. Placement is verified by aspirating stomach contents or injecting air and listening with a stethoscope. The tube is then secured and the client monitored.

Fluids And Electrolytes
This document provides an overview of fluids and electrolytes in the human body. It discusses several key points:
- Water comprises 60-70% of total body weight and plays important roles in transport, metabolism, and maintaining homeostasis.
- Electrolytes like sodium, potassium, calcium, and chloride are important for cellular function, nerve impulse transmission, muscle contraction, and acid-base balance.
- Fluid levels and electrolyte concentrations are tightly regulated and can become imbalanced through various causes, resulting in conditions like dehydration, hyponatremia, or hypokalemia.
- Symptoms of electrolyte imbalances depend on which electrolyte is affected but may include muscle cramps
Nutrition & Diet therapy Lecture 02-24-2011
Nutritional support can supplement or replace normal feeding through the gastrointestinal tract. It benefits patients by preserving nutritional status and preventing complications of malnutrition. Patients who require nutritional support include those already malnourished from surgery, trauma, sepsis, or critical illness, as well as those at risk of malnutrition due to inability to eat for over 5 days or impaired bowel function. Nutritional assessment involves taking a history, physical exam, anthropometric measurements, and lab tests to detect malnutrition. Enteral nutrition via feeding tubes is preferred over parenteral nutrition when the gut is functioning, as it is more physiologic with fewer complications and costs less. Parenteral nutrition provides greater calories but has higher risks and costs, and is reserved for patients who cannot tolerate
Incubator
An incubator is a heated and humidified apparatus used to maintain an appropriate environmental temperature for newborn infants, especially those who are premature or sick. It allows close monitoring and helps regulate an infant's temperature. To use an incubator, it is first pre-heated to the desired temperature as prescribed by the physician. The undressed infant is then placed inside and the temperature is monitored hourly and compared to the infant's axillary or rectal temperature. Any abnormal temperatures should be reported.

This document summarizes several diagnostic tests used in high-risk pregnancies to determine fetal status, including ultrasonography, fetoscopy, amniocentesis, non-stress testing, biophysical profile, and others. Ultrasonography uses sound waves to detect fetal structures, growth, and abnormalities. Fetoscopy uses a thin scope to visualize the fetus. Amniocentesis extracts amniotic fluid for analysis. Non-stress testing monitors fetal heart rate responses to movement. Biophysical profile combines ultrasound assessment of fetal wellbeing factors into a score. Each test has specific purposes, preparations, risks, implications and interpretations to evaluate fetal health and guide care.
Nutritional Support
This document discusses different types of nutritional support including enteral and parenteral feeding. Enteral feeding involves providing nutrients directly into the gastrointestinal tract via feeding tubes like nasogastric or gastrostomy tubes. Parenteral feeding provides nutrients intravenously when a patient cannot use their GI tract. The document describes the different tube types used for enteral feeding as well as indications, benefits, and potential complications of enteral and parenteral nutrition support.
Parenteral Nutrition Web
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) involves delivering nutrients intravenously for patients who cannot receive adequate nutrition enterally. TPN provides carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, vitamins, and electrolytes. It can be administered either through a central line inserted into a large central vein or through a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) placed in a peripheral vein. TPN is useful when the gastrointestinal tract cannot be used for an extended period or when enteral nutrition is projected to be inadequate. However, TPN also carries risks of metabolic complications and infections associated with catheter placement.
