|
Vital sign importance |
1. Indicators of general health or physiological stat. 2.Compares pts. reading to normal values 3. Abnormal values- indicator of illness, trauma, exs, other physical conditions |
|
Importance of establishing base value: what type of pts |
Elderly (over 65) Very young (<2) sedentary previous or current cardio problem recovery from sx or trauma |
|
Normal resting HR/pulse |
Infant 100-130 beats per min (BPM) Child: 80-100 Adult: 60-100 |
|
Sites of pulse/ HR assessment |
Temporal carotid brachial radial (most common) femoral Popliteal Dorsal Pedal Posterior Tibial APex of heart (stethoscope) |
|
Tachycardia |
Rapid HR > 100bpm |
|
Bradycardia |
Slow HR <60 BPM |
|
Pulse Oximetry |
Devise to measure the level of O2 in the blood (O2 saturation) |
|
Normal O2 saturation |
95-100% |
|
O2 saturation can be an indicator for what? |
1st sign of a blood clot-> embolism-> lung= pulmonary embolism |
|
Systolic Pressure |
Point of contraction of heart m. (blood against the arterial walls) |
|
Diastolic Pressure |
Measurement exerted by blood against the arterial walls when the heart is NOT contracting |
|
Korotkoff's sounds
|
BP SOUNDS: phase 1- 1st clear sound (systolic pressure) 2- muffled or swishing sounds 3- louder and clearer sounds 4- abruptly muffled sounds (diastolic pressure) 5- sound disapears |
|
Normal Blood preasure |
Infant: 60-90/ 30-55 mmHg child: 90-110/ 50-70 mmHg Adult: 120/80 mmHg or lower |
|
Hypertension |
=> 140/ 90 mmHg |
|
Prehypertension: |
120-139/ 80-89 |
|
Stage 1 hypertension |
140-159/ 90-99
|
|
Stage 2 Hypertension |
=>160/ 100
|
|
Normal Respiration |
Newborn: 33-45 1 year: 25-35 10 years: 15-20 adults: 12-20 |
|
Tachypnea |
>20 respiration/min |
|
Bradypnea |
<10-12 respiration/min |
|
Respiration ratio |
Normal: 1:2 Abnorma: 1:3 or 1:4 |
|
Hyperpnea |
Increased rate and depth of breaths |
|
Hypopnea |
Decreased rate and depth of breaths |
|
Orthopnea |
Inability to breathe when in supine position ie. due to obese, heart disease |
|
Biot's |
Irregular breathing, breaths vary in depth and rate with periods of apnea; often associated with increased cranial pressure or damage to the medula |
|
Cheyne-strokes |
Decreasing rate and depth of breathing with periods of apnea; can occur due to CNS damage |
|
Apna: |
absence of spontaneous breathing (common w/ sleep apnea |
|
Tidal Volume (TV): def, classification |
Amount of air that moves in and out of lungs with each breath classification: normal, deep, shallow |
|
Common pain scales |
1. McGill pain questionnaire: 2 part, 70?s 2. Numerical Rating scale (typical) 3. Visual analog scale (higher sensitive scale) |
|
Posture: definition |
Holding a particular static position |
|
Postural control: definition |
ability to move effectively and efficiently in a variety of environments & situation w/o falling *dynamic* |
|
Lateral View- Plumb line |
Thru lobe of ear Thru Axis of odontoid process Thru shoulder joint Thru Lumbar vertebrae Thru greater trochanter Slightly ant. to midline ofknee Slightly ant to lateral maleolus thru the calcaneocuboid joint |
|
