    Prayer for Students

    God of Light and Truth, thank you for giving me a mind that can know and a heart that can

    love. Help me to keep learning every day of my life, for all knowledge leads to you. Let me be

    aware of your presence in all things and at all times. Encourage me when work is difficult and

    when I am tempted to give up; encourage me when my brain seems slow and the way forward

    is difficult. Grant me the grace to put my mind to use exploring the world you have

    created, confident that in you there a wisdom that is real. Amen.

    Prayer to St. Joseph of Cupertino for success in Examinations.

    This powerful prayer is very effective in examinations. It has to be said before appearing in the

    examination. There are two variants to this prayer. Both the prayers are equally effective. You

    can choose any one of these:-

    First Prayer

    O Great St. Joseph of Cupertino who while on earth did obtain from God the grace to be asked

    at your examination only the questions you knew, obtain for me a like favor in the examinations

    for which I am now preparing. In return I promise to make you known and cause you to be

    invoked.

    Through Christ our Lord.

    St. Joseph of Cupertino, Pray for us.

    Amen.

    Second Prayer

    O St. Joseph of Cupertino who by your prayer obtained from God to be asked at your

    examination, the only preposition you knew. Grant that I may like you succeed in the (here

    mention the name of Examination eg. History paper I ) examination.

    In return I promise to make you known and cause you to be invoked.

    O St. Joseph of Cupertino pray for me

    O Holy Ghost enlighten me

    Our Lady of Good Studies pray for me

    Sacred Head of Jesus, Seat of divine wisdom, enlighten me.

    Remember, when you succeed in the exams then you should thank St. Joseph of Cupertino in

    the Newspaper.

    Types of Leadership:

    AUTHORITARIAN OR AUTHOCRATIC leaders makes own decision..More concerned task

    accomplishment than w/ concern for people. It promotes hostility and aggression or apathy to

    decrease initiative.

    DEMOCRATIC PARTICIPATIVE- leaders involved their follower in decision making process.

    People oriented focusing on human relations en team work. lead to increased productivity and

    job satisfaction.

    LAISSEZ-FAIRE OR PERMISSIVE- leaders are loose and permissive and abstain from leading their

    staff. They foster freedom for everyone en wants everyone to feed good. Leadership results in

    low productivity en employees

    Frustrations

    Pattern of Nursing Care:

    Case Method/Total Patient Care

    In case method, the nurse cares for one patient whom the nurse cares for exclusively. The

    Case Method evolved into what we now call private duty nursing. It was the first type of nursing

    care delivery system.

    In Total Patient Care, the nurse is responsible for the total care of the patient during the nurses

    working shift. The RN is responsible for several patients.

    Functional Nursing

    It is a task-oriented method wherein a particular nursing function is assigned to each staff

    member. The medication nurse, treatment nurse and bedside nurse are all products of thissystem. For efficiency, nursing was essentially divided into tasks, a model that proved very

    beneficial when staffing was poor. The key idea was for nurses to be assigned to tasks, not to

    patients.

    Team Nursing

    The goal of team nursing is for a team to work democratically.

    Primary Nursing

    The hallmark of this modality is that one nurse cares for one group of patients with 24-hour

    accountability for planning their care.

    Modular Nursing (District Nursing)

    This is a modification of team and primary nursing. It is a geographical assignment of patient

    that encourages continuity of care by organizing a group of staff to work with a group of

    patients in the same locale.

    Level of Prevention by Leavell and Clark:

    Primary Prevention

    Providing specific protection against disease to prevent its occurrence is the most desirable

    form of prevention. Examples:

    a. Mandatory immunization of children belonging to the age range of 0 59

    months old to control acute infection diseases.

    b. Minimizing contamination of the work or general environment by asbestosdust, silicone dust, smoke, chemical pollutants and excessive noise.

    Secondary Prevention

    Early diagnosis of a health problem can decrease the catastrophic effects that might otherwise

    result for the individual and the family from advanced illness and its many complications.

    Examples:

  • 8/8/2019 2010 review readiness

    7/75

    a. Public education to promote breast self-examination, use of home kits for

    detection of occult blood in stool specimens and familiarity with the seven

    cancer danger signals.

    b. Screening programs for hypertension, diabetes. Uterine cancer(pap smear),

    breast cancer (examination and mammography), glaucoma and sexually

    transmitted disease.Tertiary Prevention

    Continuing health supervision during rehabilitation to restore an individual to an optimal level

    of functioning.

    Three way bottle:

    1st

    drainage system

    shows a simple drainage system that can be connected to suction or to a

    Heimlich valve. The fluid-collection bottle would have measurement

    markings on it to help clinicians track the amount of fluid collected. This

    system could allow for reduction of a pneumothorax

    2nd

    water seal and drainage bottle

    shows the addition of a water-sealed bottle to the simple drainage system.

    This helps to stop the problem of air moving back into the chest, and it also

    provides greater capacity for the collection of blood or body fluids without

    any clogging of the suction outlet/connection.

    3rd

    drainage, water seal, and suction

    The system has a fluid-collection bottle and a water-sealed bottle, alongwith a pressure-regulating bottle. This bottle helps the system maintain a

    measured, constant negative pressure and negative flow.

    Bubbling:

    *Bubbles in suction: Continues

    *Bubbles in water seal: Intermittent

    *What if there is continues bubbling in water seal due to air leak? We need to clamp

    immediately the tube near the client*What if there is no bubble? No bubbles means normal or there is an obstruction

    *How to remove obstruction? By press release maneuvers

    *The tube disconnects? Disconnect in the site ( cover the hole w/ vassoclussive dressing)

    Disconnect in the whole bottle (reconnect the tube)

    *If broken bottle? Immerse in new bottle

    *If the tube disconnect?

    -Clamp

    -Notify Physician

    -Immerse in new bottle

    -Reconnect the tube

    *Clamp is only for leakage

    Care for Tracheostomy and function of Cuff, obturator, and Tie

    1. Explain procedure to patient.

    2. If tracheostomy tube has been suctioned, remove soiled dressing from around tube and

    d. Place on sterile gauze pad.

    1. Suction outer cannula using sterile technique.

    2. Replace inner cannula into outer cannula. Turn lock clockwise and make sure that inner

    cannula is secure. Reapply oxygen source if needed.

    Replacing Disposable Inner Cannula

    1. Release lock. Gently remove inner cannula and place in disposable bag. Discard gloves anddon sterile ones to insert new cannula. Replace with appropriately sized new cannula.

    Engage lock on inner cannula.

    Applying Clean Dressing and Tape

    1. Dip cotton-tipped applicator in saline and clean stoma under faceplate. Use each applicator

    only once, moving from stoma site outward.

    2. Apply hydrogen peroxide to area around stoma, faceplate, and outer cannula if secretions

    prove difficult to remove. Rinse area with saline.

    3. Pat skin gently with dry 4 x 4 gauze.

    4. Slide commercially prepared tracheostomy dressing or prefolded non-cotton-filled 4 x

    4dressing under faceplate.

    Tie

    a. Leave soiled tape in place until new one is applied.

    b. Cut piece of tape that is twice the neck circumference plus 4 inches (10 cm). Trim ends on

    the diagonal.

    c. Insert one end of tape through faceplate opening alongside old tape. Pull through until

    both ends are even.

    d. Slide both tapes under patients neck and insert one end through remaining opening on

    other side of faceplate. Pull snugly and tie ends in double square knot. Check that patient

    can flex neck comfortably.

    e. Carefully remove old tape. Reapply oxygen source if necessary.1. Remove gloves and discard. Perform hand hygiene. Assess patients respirations. Document

    assessments and completion of procedure.

    Obturator

    The obturator is used only to guide the outer tube during insertion and is removed immediately

    after the outer tube is in place.

    Cuff

    A tracheostomy cuff is a balloon around the outside of the trach tube. When the balloon is filled

    with air it fits the shape of your windpipe. The balloon seals off the space between the wall of

    your windpipe and the trach tube. This seal is needed when you are on a breathing machine

    (ventilator) or if you have problems with choking. If the cuff is not inflated, air can pass around

    the trach tube.

    Nursing Intervention:

    - Change the site of needle

    - Apply warm compress. This will absorb edema fluids and reduce swelling.

    2. Circulatory Overload - Results from administration of excessive volume of IV fluids.

    Assessment:

    - Headache

    - Flushed skin

    - Rapid pulse

    - Increase BP

    - Weight gain

    - Syncope and faintness

    - Pulmonary edema

    - Increase volume pressure

    - SOB

    - Coughing

    - Tachypnea

    - Shock

    Nursing Interventions:

    - Slow infusion to KVO

    - Place patient in high fowlers position. To enhance breathing

    - Administer diuretic, bronchodilator as ordered

    3. Superficial Thrombophlebitis it is due to overuse of a vein, irritating solution or drugs, clotformation, large bore catheters.

    Assessment:

    -Pain along the course of vein

    -Vein may feel hard and cordlike

    -Edema and redness at needle insertion site.

    -Arm feels warmer than the other arm

    Nursing Intervention:

    -Change IV site every 72 hours-Use large veins for irritating fluids.

    - Stabilize venipuncture at area of flexion.

    -Apply cold compress immediately to relieve pain and inflammation; later with warm compress

    to stimulate circulation and promotion absorption.

    -Do not irrigate the IV because this could push clot into the systemic circulation

  • 8/8/2019 2010 review readiness

    15/75

    4. Air Embolism Air manages to get into the circulatory system; 5 ml of air or more causes air

    embolism.

    Assessment:

    -Chest, shoulder, or backpain

    -Hypotension-Dyspnea

    - Cyanosis

    -Tachycardia

    -Increase venous pressure

    -Loss of consciousness

    Nursing Intervention

    - Do not allow IV bottle to run dry

    -Prime IV tubing before starting infusion.

    -Turn patient to left side in the trendelenburg position. To allow air to rise in the right side of

    the heart. This prevent pulmonary embolism.

    BLOOD TRANSFUSION THERAPY

    Objectives:

    1. To increase circulating blood volume after surgery, trauma, or hemorrhage

    2. To increase the number of RBCs and to maintain hemoglobin levels in clients

    with severe anemia

    3. To provide selected cellular components as replacements therapy (e.g

    clotting factors, platelets, albumin)

    Nursing Interventions:

    a. Verify doctors order. Inform the client and explain the purpose of the procedure.

    b. Check for cross matching and typing. To ensure compatibility

    c. Obtain and record baseline vital signs

    d. Practice strict Asepsis

    e. At least 2 licensed nurse check the label of the blood transfusion

    Check the following:

    -Serial number

    -Blood component

    -Blood type

    -Rh factor

    -Expiration date

    -Screening test (VDRL, HBsAg, malarial smear)

  • 8/8/2019 2010 review readiness

    16/75

    - this is to ensure that the blood is free from blood-carried diseases and therefore, safe from

    transfusion.

    f. Warm blood at room temperature before transfusion to prevent chills.

    g. Identify client properly. Two Nurses check the clients identification.

    h. Use needle gauge 18 to 19. This allows easy flow of blood.

    j.Use BT set with special micron mesh filter. To prevent administration of blood

    clots and particles.

    k. Start infusion slowly at 10 gtts/min. Remain at bedside for 15 to 30 minutes. Adverse

    reaction usually occurs during the first 15 to 20 minutes.

    l. Monitor vital signs. Altered vital signs indicate adverse reaction.

    Do not mixed medications with blood transfusion. To prevent adverse effects

    - Do not incorporate medication into the blood transfusion

    - Do not use blood transfusion line for IV push of medication.

    m. Administer 0.9% NaCl before, during or after BT. Never administer IV fluids with dextrose.

    Dextrose causes hemolysis.

    n. Administer BT for 4 hours (whole blood, packed rbc). For plasma, platelets, cryoprecipitate,

    transfuse quickly (20 minutes) clotting factor can easily be destroyed.

    Complications ofBlood Transfusion

    1. Allergic Reaction it is caused by sensitivity to plasma protein of donor

    antibody, which reacts with recipient antigen.

    Assessments

    -Flushing

    -Rush, hives

    -Pruritus

    -Laryngeal edema, difficulty of breathing

    2. Febrile, Non-Hemolytic it is caused by hypersensitivity to donor white cells,

    platelets or plasma proteins. This is the most symptomatic complication of blood

    transfusion

    Assessments:

    -Sudden chills and fever

    -Flushing

  • 8/8/2019 2010 review readiness

    17/75

    -Headache

    -Anxiety

    3. Septic Reaction it is caused by the transfusion of blood or components

    contaminated with bacteria.

    Assessment:-Rapid onset of chills

    -Vomiting

    -Marked Hypotension

    -High fever

    4. Circulatory Overload it is caused by administration of blood volume at a

    rate greater than the circulatory system can accommodate.

    Assessment

    -Rise in venous pressure

    -Dyspnea

    -Crackles or rales

    -Distended neck vein

    -Cough

    -Elevated BP

    5. Hemolytic reaction. It is caused by infusion of incompatible blood products.

    Assessment

    -Low back pain (first sign). This is due to inflammatory response of the kidneys to incompatible

    blood.

    -Chills

    -Feeling of fullness-Tachycardia

    -Flushing

    -Tachypnea

    -Hypotension

    -Bleeding

    -Vascular collapse

    -Acute renal failure

    Nursing Interventions when complications occurs in Blood transfusion

    1. If blood transfusion reaction occurs. STOP THE TRANSFUSION.2. Start IV line (0.9% Na Cl)

    3. Place the client in fowlers position if with SOB and administer O2 therapy.

    4. The nurse remains with the client, observing signs and symptoms and monitoring vital signs

    as often as every 5 minutes.

    5. Notify the physician immediately.

    6. The nurse prepares to administer emergency drugs such as antihistamines, vasopressor,

    fluids, and steroids as per physicians order or protocol.

    New born Screening test

    Newborn screening (NBS) is a simple procedure to find out if your baby has a congenital

    metabolic disorder that may lead to mental retardation and even death if left untreated.

    Newborn screening is ideally done on the 48th hour or at least 24 hours from birth. Some

    disorders are not detected if the test is done earlier than 24 hours. The baby must be screened

    again after 2 weeks for more accurate results.

    Newborn screening is a simple procedure. Using the heel prick method, a few drops of blood

    are taken from the baby's heel and blotted on a special absorbent filter card. The blood is dried

    for 4 hours and sent to the Newborn Screening Laboratory (NBS Lab).

    Newborn screening results are available within seven working days to three weeks after the

    NBS Lab receives and tests the samples sent by the institutions. Results are released by NBS Lab

    to the institutions and are released to your attending birth attendants or physicians. Parents

    may seek the results from the institutions where samples are collected. A negative screen mean

    that the result of the test is normal and the baby is not suffering from any of the disorders

    being screened. In case of a positive screen, the NBS nurse coordinator will immediately inform

    the coordinator of the institution where the sample was collected for recall of patients forconfirmatory testing.

    Ultrasonography

    An ultrasound is something like an x-ray. But it uses sound waves rather than radiation to make

    black-and white pictures from inside the body.

    An ultrasound is used in women who are pregnant, or who might be pregnant. An ultrasound

    might be done more than once during a pregnancy, depending on the health of the baby or

    mother.

    Cholecystitis

    Inflammation of the gallbladder; usually caused by the presence of stones (cholelithiasis), whichare composed of cholesterol, bile pigments, and calcium.

    Therapeutic management:

    Medical management

    - Nasogastric suctioning to reduce nausea and eliminate vomiting

    - Narcotics to decrease pain

  • 8/8/2019 2010 review readiness

    41/75

    - Antispasmodics and anticholinergics to reduce spasms and contractions of the

    gallbladder

    - Antibiotic therapy if infection is suspected

    NURSING CARE:

    - Teach dietary modification to achieve a low-fat intake because reduced bile flow willreduce fat absorption; supplementation with water-miscible forms of vitamins A and E

    may be prescribed.

    - Relieve pain both preoperatively and postoperatively

    Observe for signs of bleeding (vitamin K is fat soluble and is not absorbed in the absence

    of bile); administer vitamin K preparations as ordered

    Provide care following a cholecystectomy: surgical / laparoscopic laser

    a. Monitor nasogastric tube attached to suction to prevent distention

    1. Maintain patency of the tube

    2. Assess and measure drainage

    b. Provide fluids and electrolytes via intravenous route

    c. Keep the client in a low-Fowlers position

    d. Have the client cough and deep breathe; splint the incision (incision is high and midline,

    making coughing extremely uncomfortable)

    e. Provide care for the client with a T-tube (if the common bile duct has been explored, a T-tube

    is inserted to maintain patency)

    TREATMENT OF STONES:

    CHOLESTEROL DISSOLVENT:

    Moctanin is administered through a nasal biliary catheter to dissolve stones left in the

    bile duct after cholecystectomy. Dissolution may take 1 to 3 weeks. Observe the client

    for anorexia, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain.

    ORAL BILE ACIDS:

    Chenodiol ( chenix ) and ursodiol ( actigall ) are administered to dissolve small stones.

    Side effects include diarrhea ( especially with chenodiol ), elevation of hepatic

    enzymes,gastritis, and gastric ulcers. Dissolution takes between 6 months and 2 years,

    and the success rate is only about 30 %

    Acupuncture (AH-q-punk-sher)

    is based on the belief that life forces or energy move through the body in specific paths. Thesepaths are called meridians (mer-IH-d-uns). With acupuncture, a needle is put into the meridian

    that runs to the area where you have pain. This needle blocks the meridian which stops or

    decreases the pain.

    Aromatherapy (uh-ro-muh-THAIR-uh-p)

    is a way of using good smells to help you relax and decrease pain

    Biofeedback

    teaches your body to respond in a different way to the stress of being in pain. Teaching your

    body to relax helps make the pain less. Caregivers may use a biofeedback machine so that you

    know right away when your body is relaxed. But, often you may not need any machines. Learn

    to take your pulse. Then take it while making your mind think about "slowing down" your pulse.

    This can work with breathing, temperature, and blood pressure too.

    Breathing exercises

    are another physical way to help your body relax.Teaching your body to relax helps make the

    pain less. Breathing in and out very slowly is all you do.

    Distraction (dih-STRAK-shun)

    teaches you to focus your attention on something other than pain. Try playing cards or games,

    watching TV, or taking a walk.

    Environment (your surroundings)

    Being in a quiet place may make it easier for you to deal with the pain.

    Guided imagery (IH-mij-ree)

    teaches you to put pictures in your mind that will make the pain less intense.

    Heat and cold

    can help decrease pain. Some types of pain improve best using heat while other types of pain

    improve most with cold.

    Laughter

    It has been said that "10 minutes of belly laughter gives 2 hours of pain-free sleep!" Laughterhelps you breathe deeper and your stomach digest (break down) food.

    Massage

    is often used to help a person become more relaxed. Have someone gently massage your back,

    shoulders, and neck

    Music

    It does not matter whether you listen to it, sing, and hum or play an instrument. Music

    increases blood flow to the brain and helps you take in more air.

    Physical therapy

    can be helpful with pain that was caused by not moving one part of your body.

    Radiation

    can be used to decrease the size of a cancer tumor that is pressing on nerves and causing pain.

    Self-hypnosis

    is a way to change your level of awareness. This means that by focusing your attention you can

    move away from your pain.

    Spinal cord stimulationis a nerve stimulation technique that is similar to TENS. The difference is that in SCS an

    electrode (a metal wire) is put near the spinal cord during surgery. SCS also uses mild, safe

    electrical signals to help control pain.

    TENS

    is short for transcutaneous (trans-q-TAIN-e-us) electrical nerve stimulation (stih-mew-LA-shun).

    A TENS unit is a portable, pocket-sized, battery-powered device which attaches to the skin. The

    TENS unit uses mild, safe electrical signals to help control pain.

    Touch energy therapiescome from very old beliefs that life forces or energy move through the body in specific paths.

    Touch therapies believe disease may cause these paths to become blocked. The therapies use

    touch to help unblock these paths, and allow the energy to flow normally. Unblocking the paths

    may help you relax and decrease pain.

    Cervical Cancer

    Risk Factor:

    -HPV infection: HPV is a group of viruses that can infect the cervix.

    - Lack of regular Pap tests

    - Smoking

    - Weakened immune system- many sexual partners

    - Using birth control pills for a long time

    - Having many children

    - DES (diethylstilbestrol)

    Sign and Symptoms

    - Abnormal vaginal bleeding

    -Bleeding that occurs between regular menstrual periods

    -Bleeding after sexual intercourse,douching, or a pelvic exam

    -Menstrual periods that last longer and are heavier than before

    -Bleeding after going through menopause

    -Increased vaginal discharge

    -Pelvic pain

    -Pain during sex

    Stage I: The tumor has invaded the cervix beneath the top layer of cells. Cancer cells are found

    only in the cervix.

    Stage II: The tumor extends to the upper part of the vagina. It may extend beyond the cervix

    into nearby tissues toward the pelvic wall (the lining of the part of the body between the hips).

    The tumor does not invade the lower third of the vagina or the pelvic wall.

    Stage III: The tumor extends to the lower part of the vagina. It may also have invaded the pelvic

    wall. If the tumor blocks the flow of urine, one or both kidneys may not be working well.

    Stage IV: The tumor invades the bladder or rectum. Or the cancer has spread to other parts of

    the body.

    Treatment

    Women with cervical cancer have many treatment options. The options are surgery,radiation

    therapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of methods.

    SurgeryRadical trachelectomy: The surgeon removes the cervix, part of the vagina, and the lymph nodesin the pelvis. This option is for a small number of women with small tumors who want to try to

    get pregnant later on.
