Question | Answer |
---|---|
Patient Prep is used for the following exams: | UGI small bowel barium enema IVP esophogram |
a laxative to cleanse the bowels (castor oil, ducolax, magnesium) | cathartics |
reasons an enema is used | to cleanse or remove fecal matter stimulate peristalsis introduce medication introduce radiographic contrast |
most frequently used type of enema | tap water enema |
supplies needed for an enema | disposable enema bag disposable enema tip k-y jelly iv pole bed pan wash cloth and towel blue chux gloves |
steps to performing an enema | -fill bag with 500-1000ml of warm (tepid) water -hang bag on iv pole (higher the pole, faster rate of flow) -explain procedure to patient -have them lie in sims position (on side) -position tip towards the umbilicus; in a superior and anterior directi |
black tarry stool | blood from UGI |
red blood | internal hemorrhoids |
ostomy | surgical procedure |
colostomy | into colon |
ileotomy | into ileum |
straight catheter for temporary use/red robinson | non-retension catheter |
foley catheter/for prolonged indwelling use/balloon attached | retension catheter |
reasons for catheterization | keep bladder empty drain, or instill medicine introduce contrast in bladder |
catheter supplies | sterile catheterization kit catheter lamp adapter for the catheter to tubing contrast medium |
when transporting, keep bag ______ the level of the bladder | below |
catheter thats placed directly into the bladder | suprapubic catheter |
urinary resection - used with patients who have bladder CA | urinary ileostomy |
used on male patients, drains into a bag at end of drainage device | condom catheter |
average adult voids about _________cc/day | 100-500 |
deep orange/red urine could indicate | jaundice |
orange/red urine could indicate | RBC's in urine |
cloudy urine can indicate | infection |
specific gravity of urine can indicate | (acid base) can indicate proper kidney function |
protein or glucose in urine indicates | abnormal kidney function |
BUN means? | Blood/urea/nitrogen |
a product creatinine phosphate, is present in the urine | creatinine |
plastic or rubber tube placed through the nasopharynx into the stomach - for suction, feeding, aspirate stomach, diagnostic purpose | NG Tube (nasogastric tube) |
single lumen with holes near tip (type of NG tube) | levin |
double lumen, radiopaque type of NG tube | salem-sump |
ng tube fore feedings, mercury tip | nutriflex |
triple lumen ng tube | moss |
triple lumen ng tube-esophageal varices | sengstaken-blakemore |
similar to a nasogastric tube (NG) but longer, placed in small bowel | nasojejunal/nasoenteric (NJ, NE) |
tube used for decompression/diagnosis/treatment | NJ/NE (nasojejunal, nasoenteric) tube |
to determine size of tube, what is the size of measurement measurement called? | a french (fr) |
size of a NJ/NE tube | usually 12-16 french (fr) |
true or false place a NJ/NE tube in warm water to warm up | false - you place in cold water to stiffen |
supplies for emergency suctioning/respiratory | wall outlet suction sterile gloves sterile suction sets with sterile saline tubing |
reasons to emergency suction | -profuse vomiting when patient cannot change position -audible rattling or gurgling sounds coming from patient throat -signs of respiratory distress |
catheter size for suctioning: usually ____ to ___ F 22 inches long for adults and ___ to 8 ft for children | 10 to 18; 5 to 8 |
catheters for suctioning can be used to perform ______/_______ at childrens hospital | GI/esophograms |

plastic tube with obturator for insertion only, cuff that seals tube, held in place with ties | tracheostomy tube |
tubes used for temporary distress, can accidently slip into the _____ _____ _____ ______ | endo-tracheal tubes (ET) |
plastic tube with metal obturator, inserted into pleural cavity to remove air and fluid - used to re-establish the correct intrapleural pressure and to allow the lungs to expand naturally | chest tube |
thin membrane | pleura |
membrane that lines the chest cavity | parietal pleura |
membrane enclosing each lung | visceral pleura |
space between the parietal and visceral pleura | pleural cavity |
fluid in cavity, need upright or decub to demonstrate | pleural effusion |
accumulation of air in pleural cavity - could be due to trauma to chest wall, tumor or copd, emphysema | pneumothorax |
collapse of the whole or part of a lung due to obstruction - individual alveoli collapse - foreign body, vomit, tumor | atelectasis |
accumulation of blood in pleural cavity | hemothorax |
half of chest | hemithorax |
removal of lung - fluid fills the space | pneumonectomy |

chest tube systems and care of patient rules: | do not clamp chest tube keep straight, do not kink do not place tension on tube make sure water-seal is maintained keep chest drainage unit below chest |
what would indicate a leak in a chest tube system and what should you do if you see one | steady bubbling; report to nurse |
CVP | central venous pressure |
measures pressure in the SVC (superior vena cava), determines blood volume, evaluates cardiac output | CVP Line |
where is placement for an CVP (central venous pressure) line | at the junction of the brachiocephalic vein and superior vena cava or within the superior vena cava |
common tunnel style central lines, placed into the subclavian or internal jugular vein and then advanced into the superior vena cava or the right atrium | hickman/broviac/groshang lines |
