How to Manage a client with pulmonary embolism ?
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a blockage of the main artery of the lung or one of its branches by a substance that has travelled from elsewhere in the body through the bloodstream.

TREATMENT METHODS ?
Anticoagulant- Heparin, Enoxaparin Fibrinolytic therapy – Streptokinase Surgical management
• Embolectomy• Insertion of a filter in vena cava to prevent
further emboli reaching the pulmonary vasculature
Provide Education to prevent of a PE Avoid long term immobility Monitor intake of vit K Emotional support

Nursing Assessment:
Assess signs of hypoxia
Monitor pulse oximetry values
![Page 7: Miss M. N. PRIYADARSHANIE ( BSc. Nursing ) NURSING MANAGEMENT OF A CLIENT WITH IMPARED GAS EXCHANGE.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56649ee75503460f94bf7fc2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Nursing Diagnosis:
Impaired gas exchanged related to decrease pulmonary perfusion associated with obstruction of pulmonary arterial blood flow by the embolus as evidenced by patient suffered with dyspnea.
Decreased cardiac output Anxiety

Nursing Interventions Rationale
1. Frequently assess respiratory status including rate, depth, effort, lung sound and SPO2.
2. Assess the mental status of the client (changes in orientation and behavior Monitor)
3. ABGs and note changes -4. The patient in high fowler’s
position.
5. Administered oxygen as ordered by doctor -
6. Maintain bed rest -Medications(anticoagulants) as prescribed by doctor. Eg low-molecular-weight heparin, warfarin etc- Anticoagulant therapy is preventive by inhibiting further clot formation.
•Impaired ventilation affects gas exchange and worsens hypoxemia (Tachypnea,dyspnea). •SPO2 can be used as a non-invasive method to monitors oxygen saturation.
Restlessness is an early sign of hypoxia. Hypoxemia often causes confusion and agitation.
ABGs used to assess gas exchange of client-To facilitate maximal lung expansion/improve ventilation .
To improve oxygenation
Bed rest reduces metabolic demands for oxygen-Administer

INVESTIGATIONS
persistent haemoptysis in smokers or ex-smokers over 40 years of age
Chest X-ray suggestive or suspicious of lung cancer (including pleural effusion )
CT SCANNING and slowly resolving or recurrent consolidation)
Signs of superior vena caval obstruction (swelling of the face and or neck with fixed elevation of jugular venous pressure)
![Page 11: Miss M. N. PRIYADARSHANIE ( BSc. Nursing ) NURSING MANAGEMENT OF A CLIENT WITH IMPARED GAS EXCHANGE.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56649ee75503460f94bf7fc2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
PET SCANNING
Positron emission tomography (PET) scanning PET scanning may be used to investigate
patients presenting with solitary lung lesions but histological/cytological confirmation of
results will still be required.
BRONCHOSCOPY CT scanning should be performed prior to
further diagnostic investigations, including bronchoscopy
![Page 12: Miss M. N. PRIYADARSHANIE ( BSc. Nursing ) NURSING MANAGEMENT OF A CLIENT WITH IMPARED GAS EXCHANGE.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56649ee75503460f94bf7fc2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
PERCUTANEOUS FNA/BIOPSY ANTERIOR MEDIASTINOTOMY/
MEDIASTINOSCOPY
![Page 13: Miss M. N. PRIYADARSHANIE ( BSc. Nursing ) NURSING MANAGEMENT OF A CLIENT WITH IMPARED GAS EXCHANGE.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56649ee75503460f94bf7fc2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
SPUTUM CYTOLOGYSputum cytology should only be used in patients with large central lesions, where bronchoscopy or other diagnostic tests are deemed unsafe.
VIDEO-ASSISTED THORACOSCOPY (VAT) Thoracoscopy should be considered for
patients with suspected lung cancer Achieved histological and cytological
confirmation of diagnosis.
![Page 14: Miss M. N. PRIYADARSHANIE ( BSc. Nursing ) NURSING MANAGEMENT OF A CLIENT WITH IMPARED GAS EXCHANGE.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56649ee75503460f94bf7fc2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
SMALL CELL AND NON-SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER
Routine surgery for limited disease SCLC is not recommended.
![Page 15: Miss M. N. PRIYADARSHANIE ( BSc. Nursing ) NURSING MANAGEMENT OF A CLIENT WITH IMPARED GAS EXCHANGE.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56649ee75503460f94bf7fc2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Surgery1.VIDEO-ASSISTED THORACIC SURGERY (STAGE I AND II)2.Lung resection should be as limited as possible without compromising cancer clearance. Lobectomy remains the procedure of choice for fit
patients. Every effort should be made to avoid a futile
thoracotomy.
Radiotherapy Patients meeting the following criteria should be
offered radical radiotherapy: IIIA or IIIB disease, as long as the tumour can be
safely encompassed within a radical radiotherapy volume WHO performance status (PS) 0 or 1 less than 10% weight loss.

PALLIATIVE THORACIC RADIOTHERAPY IN PATIENTS WITH SYMPTOMATIC, LOCALLY ADVANCED LUNG CANCER
![Page 17: Miss M. N. PRIYADARSHANIE ( BSc. Nursing ) NURSING MANAGEMENT OF A CLIENT WITH IMPARED GAS EXCHANGE.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56649ee75503460f94bf7fc2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
THERAPEUTIC INTERVENTIONS ■Oxygen through nasal cannula based on level of dyspnea. ■Enteral or total parenteral nutrition for malnourished patient who is unable or unwilling to eat. ■Removal of the pleural fluid (by thoracentesis or tube thoracostomy)
■Radiation therapy in combination with other methods.
![Page 18: Miss M. N. PRIYADARSHANIE ( BSc. Nursing ) NURSING MANAGEMENT OF A CLIENT WITH IMPARED GAS EXCHANGE.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56649ee75503460f94bf7fc2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
PHARMACOLOGIC INTERVENTIONS
■Expectorants and antimicrobial agents to relieve dyspnea and infection. ■Analgesics given regularly to maintain pain at tolerable level. Titrate dosages to achieve pain control. ■Chemotherapy using cisplatin in combination with a variety of other agents and immunotherapy treatments may be indicated.
![Page 19: Miss M. N. PRIYADARSHANIE ( BSc. Nursing ) NURSING MANAGEMENT OF A CLIENT WITH IMPARED GAS EXCHANGE.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56649ee75503460f94bf7fc2/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
NURSING INTERVENTIONS
1.Elevate the head of the bed to ease the work of breathing and to prevent fluid collection in upper body (from superior vena cava syndrome). 2.Teach breathing retraining exercises to increase diaphragmatic excursion and reduce work of breathing. 3.Augment the patient’s ability to cough effectively by splinting the patient’s chest manually. 4.Instruct the patient to inspire fully and cough two to three times in one breath. 5.Provide humidifier or vaporizer to provide moisture to loosen secretions. 6.Teach relaxation techniques to reduce anxiety associated with dyspnea. Allow the severely dyspneic patient to sleep in reclining chair
7.Encourage the patient to conserve energy by decreasing activities.
8.Ensure adequate protein intake such as milk, eggs, oral nutritional

Acute Respiratory Failure
Failure in one or both gas exchange functions: oxygenation and carbon dioxide elimination
Result of a failure to adequate ventilate and oxygenate
In practice:
PaO2<60mmHg or PaCO2>45mmHg Derangements in ABGs and acid-base status Hypercapnic v Hypoxemic respiratory failure
