What are the steps in removing an artificial eye?
pull down the lower lip with index finger & exert slight pressure, allowing to slide over
lower lid and grab with free hand
-store artificial eye in labeled container filled with tap water or saline
What are the steps in inserting an artificial eye?
lift upper and lower lid to insert and blink until sets
How do you wash an artificial eye?
Wash with warm, normal saline, with soft gauze or clean tap water
How do you properly irrigate an ear
-Have pt sit or lie on side with the affected ear UP.
-Using a bulb-irrigating syringe or Walter Pik set on No 2, gently wash ear with warm
solution, directing flow toward the superior aspect of the ear canal.
Nonblanchable erythema indicates the skin has been damaged by what?
Pressure
Explain what is happening in the S1 sound
"Lub" sound- tricuspid and mitral valves snap shut @ beginning of systole. It is loudest
at the apex of the heart.
Explain what is happening in the S2 sound
"Dub" sound- Aortic and Pulmonic valves shut at beginning of diastole. This is heard
best at the base of the <3
What does a split S2 mean?
Electrical conduction may be delayed on one side so ventricles might not close at the
same time
- may sound like a "stutter"
S3 is heard in pt's with what?
CHF. It follows S2
S4 is heard in pt's with what?
HTN, CAD, MI.
What is a murmur?
occurs between S1 and S2. It should be silent there, but with a murmur there is a
whooshing sound.....this typically happens if a valve isn't open wide enough (Stenotic)
or if a valve doesn't close tightly enough and blood leaks back
Grade 1 murmurs are typically ____to hear
difficult
Grade 6 murmurs are typically ___ to hear
easy to hear
Grade 4 and above murmurs are considered____ and are accompanied by a
_____
loud murmurs. palpable thrill
Pericardial friction rub
pericardium (membrane around the heart) becomes inflamed. It causes high pitched,
scratchy sound. It is loaded at apex
What is the Valsalva maneuver?
holding breath and bearing down. Usually done to check for hernia's
