Pulse Oximetry (SpO2) noninvasively monitor arterial oxygen saturation
- device attaches to earlobe, pinna of ear, or fingertip
Pulse Oximetry Description
- alternative placement: toe, forehead, bridge of nose
- to inspect bronchi
Bronchoscopy - to remove foreign objects or mucous plugs
- to biopsy lesions
- patient NPO 6 hours before test
- IV access is initiated
Bronchoscopy Nursing Implications - check consent form
Preop - administer preoperative sedative
- give mouth care before the test
- monitor vitals 2-4 hours
- pulse ox readings
- level of consciousness
Bronchoscopy Nursing Implications
Postop - observe for bleeding, dyspnea, wheezing, discomfort, and swelling
of face and neck
*sputum may be slightly blood-tinged at first
- remove pleural fluid
Thoracentesis - instill medication
- obtain fluid for diagnostic studies
