,Gloves and gowns worn by the caregivers and visitors
Disposal of infectious dressing material into a single, nonporous bag without touching the
outside of the bag
PMGG= Private room/ share same illness, mask, gown and gloves
Skin infection- *VCHIPS* - ANSVaricella zoster
Cutaneous diptheria
Herpes simplez
Impetigo
Peduculosis
Scabies
Air or Pulmonary Embolism - ANSS/S chest pain, dyspnea, tachycardia, pale/cyanotic, sense of
impending doom. (turn pt to LEFT side and LOWER the head of bed.)
Woman in labor (un-reassuring FHR) - ANS(late decels, decreased variability, fetal bradycardia,
etc) Turn pt on Left side, give O2, stop pitocin, Increase IV fluids!
Tube feeding with decreased LOC - ANSPt on Right side (promotes emptying of the stomach)
Head of bed elevated (prevent aspiration)
LOC - ANSLevel of Consciousness
After lumbar puncture and oil based myelogram - ANSpt is flat SUPINE (prevent headache and
leaking of CSF)
Pt with heat stroke - ANSflat with legs elevated
during Continuous Bladder Irrigation (CBI) - ANScatheter is taped to the thigh. leg must be kept
straight.
After Myringotomy - ANSposition on the side of AFFECTED ear, allows drainage.
Myringotomy - ANSsurgical incision into the eardrum, to relieve pressure or drain fluid.
After Cateract surgery - ANSpt sleep on UNAFFECTED side with a night shield for *1-4 weeks*
after Thyroidectomy - ANSlow or semi-fowler's position, support head, neck and shoulders.
Infant with Spina Bifida - ANSProne so that sac does not rupture
Buck's Traction (skin) - ANSelevate foot of bed for counter traction
, After total hip replacement - ANSdon't sleep on side of surgery, don't flex hip more than 45-60
degress, don't elevate Head Of Bed more than 45 degrees. Maintain hip abduction by
separating thighs with pillows.
Prolapsed cord - ANSKnee to chest or Trendelenburg
oxygen 8 to 10 L
Cleft Lip - ANSposition on back or in infant seat to prevent trauma to the suture line. while
feeding hold in upright position.
To prevent dumping syndrome - ANS(post operative ulcer/stomach surgeries) eat in reclining
position. Lie down after meals for 20-30 min. also restrict fluids during meals, low CHO and fiber
diet. small, frequent meals.
AKA (above knee amputation) - ANSelevate for first 24 hours on pillow. position prone daily to
maintain hip extension.
BKA (below knee amputation) - ANSfoot of bed elevated for first 24 hours. position prone to
provide hip extension.
detached retina - ANSarea of detachment should be in the dependent position
dependent position - ANSsupported
administration of enema - ANSpt should be left side lying (Sim's) with knee flexed.
supratentorial - ANS(incision behind hairline on forhead) e
After supratentorial surgery - ANSelevate HOB 30-40 degrees
HOB - ANShead of bed
infratentorial - ANS(incision at the nape of neck)
After infratentorial surgery - ANSposition pt flat and lateral on either side.
During internal radiation - ANSon bed rest while implant in place
Autonomic Dysreflexia/Hyperreflexia - ANSS/S pounding headache, profuse sweating, nasal
congestion, chills, bradycardia, hypertension. Place client in sitting position (elevate HOB)
FIRST!
