9. clinical reasoning: Is the mental process used when analyzing the elements
of a clinical situation and using analysis to make a decision
10. clinical judgment: Is the decision made regarding a course of action based

steps in a client procedure are completed, components of client care are complet-
ed.
13. prioritization principles in client care: -"life before limb"
-acute vs. chronic
-actual problems vs. potential problems
-listen carefully to clients and don't assume
-recognize and respond to trends vs. transient findings
-medical emergencies and complications vs. "expected client findings"
-apply clinical knowledge to procedural standards
14. Priority setting frameworks: -Maslow's Hierarchy
-Airway, Breathing, Circulation (ABC) framework
-Safety/Risk reduction
-Assessment/Data Collection First
-Survival Potential
-Least Restrictive/Least Invasive
-Acute vs. Chronic/Urgent vs. Nonurgent/Stable vs. Unstable
15. Maslow's Hierarchy: physiological, safety and security, love and belonging,
self-esteem, self-actualization
16. ABCs (AIRWAY BREATHING CIRCULATION) Framework: -An open airway
is necessary for breathing, so it is the highest priority.
-Breathing is necessary for oxygenation of the blood to occur.
-Circulation is necessary for oxygenated blood to reach the body's tissues.
17. severity of clinical manifestations should also be considered when de-
termining priorities: A severe circulation problem may take priority over a minor
breathing problem.
18. FIRST PRIORITY-AIRWAY: INTERVENTION:
1. identify an airway concern (obstruction, stridor)
2. establish a patent airway if indicated
3. recognize that 3 to 5 min w/o oxygen causes irreversible brain damage sec-
ondary to cerebral anoxia
19. SECOND PRIORITY-BREATHING: INTERVENTION:
1. assess the effectiveness of the client's breathing (apnea, depressed resp rate)
2. intervene as appropriate (reposition, administer naloxone [Narcan]).
20. THIRD PRIORITY-CIRCULATION: INTERVENTION:
1. identify circulation concern (hypotension, dysrhythmia, inadequate cardiac out-
put, compartment syndrome)
