What is a Right Mainstem Intubation? Watch this video where we break down a TMC Practice Question on this topic. • 💥 TMC Test Bank (All Practice Questions) 👉 http://bit.ly/2IGeqSu • 💥 Daily TMC Practice Questions (via Email) 👉 http://bit.ly/2NnXh3C • ➡️You are called to assess an intubated patient that is breathing asynchronously with the ventilator. Her breath sounds are absent on the left, with dullness to percussion and a left shift of the trachea. Which of the following is the most likely explanation for this problem? • A. A tracheoesophageal fistula has developed on the left side • B. A tension pneumothorax has developed on the left side • C. The endotracheal tube is in the right mainstem bronchus • D. The patient is experiencing diffuse bronchospasm • ➡️Rationale • This is one that we can determine the correct answer right away just by looking at the information that they give us in the question. It states that the patient has a dull percussion note on the left side, tracheal shift toward the left side, and absent breath sounds on the left side. These are all signs of atelectasis! • • ➡️So now you have to think, “What would cause atelectasis?” • And in this case, the slippage of the endotracheal tube into the right mainstem bronchus would be the most likely cause left-sided atelectasis. Diffuse bronchospasm would cause bilateral wheezing and a left-sided pneumothorax would cause a hyperresonant percussion note, not a dull percussion note. So by using what we know about pathology and airway management, as well as the process of elimination, we know that the correct answer has to be C. The endotracheal tube is in the right mainstem bronchus. • 💥Intubation [Full Guide] ➜ ➜ ➜ https://bit.ly/31uEon1 • ————— • 📗 BEST STUDY GUIDES FOR YOU • ▪ TMC Test Bank 👉 http://bit.ly/2IGeqSu • ▪ Hacking the TMC Exam 👉 http://bit.ly/2XBc8do • ▪ TMC Exam Bundle (Save $) 👉 https://bit.ly/34pqEsV • ▪ Daily TMC Practice Questions 👉 http://bit.ly/2NnXh3C • 💙MORE FROM RTZ • ▪ Free TMC Practice Exam 👉 http://bit.ly/2XlwASL • ▪ Free RRT Cheat Sheet 👉 http://bit.ly/2IbmOKB • ▪ Resources for RT's 👉 http://bit.ly/2WVV5qo • ▪ Testimonials 👉 http://bit.ly/2x7b5Gl • 🌐FOLLOW US • ▪ Instagram 👉 http://bit.ly/2FhF0jV • ▪ Twitter 👉 http://bit.ly/2ZsS6T1 • ▪ Facebook 👉 http://bit.ly/2MSEejt • ▪ Pinterest 👉 http://bit.ly/2ZwVLPw • 🚑MEDICAL DISCLAIMER • Medicine and Respiratory Therapy are continuously changing practices.
