    For Question 2: AV malformation is not formed "during" birth." I should have said since before birth, therefore making the AV malformation (AVM) a birth defect.

    in the third question you said "a further decrease in PAD is bad but the answer was PAD has increased. unclear if im reading something wrong.

    • @shegotit143
      @shegotit143 Рік тому

      Although you are right and PAD elevating slightly would mean some improvement in L-sided preload, to truly evaluate RV function, RAP/CVP would be a better indicator of improvement, and therefore the better option

    Number 8 is very poorly written. It says that D is wrong because a decrease in cardiac output will cause a decrease in oxygen delivery. Yes it will cause a decrease in oxygen delivery to the body. But thats not what this is about. The question is about COMPENSATION for a decrease in cardiac output. The body would compensate by trying to INCREASE oxygen delivery to the heart. So options A and D are very similar to each other. Saying that a decrease in cardiac output leads to a decrease in oxygen delivery is obvious. But we aren't talking about direct cause and effect of what happens to the body. We are talking about compensation of what will happen to try to increase cardiac efficiency and output. A totally different thing altogether.

    since when don't we strip chest tubes????? your coagulopathic patients gonna tamponade

    • @LifelongNursing

      For the CCRN test, any chest tube should not routinely be milked or stripped. This is the teaching and guidelines of the American Association of Critical Care Nurses for the CCRN test. So, to avoid confusion, they teach not to milk or strip, again, only for the test. You still can strip or milk chest tubes for the very reason you mentioned. However, again, for test purposes ONLY, no milking or stripping. Thank you for the question.

      Michael Pulliam we NEVER strip chest tubes. Where did you get the idea from?

      @@danutamarchwinski6226 It's part of standing orders at my hospital, surgeon's order set. They believe it helps to prevent tamponade. Interesting.

      ColtraneAndRain I have been a nurse for 30 years . Now, I am a travel nurse. I have never seen any of those orders anywhere.

      @@danutamarchwinski6226 I will definitely be doing more research on this practice. But I kid you not. I've only been a nurse 22 years and I don't travel. So it's interesting to hear what they do other places. As a side note, I have broken up some pretty narly clots in those tubes!
