Are you familiar with this topic? • 🟦 TMC Test Bank (All Practice Questions) 👉 http://bit.ly/2IGeqSu • 🟦 Daily TMC Practice Questions (via Email) 👉 http://bit.ly/2NnXh3C • 💥Pneumothorax [Full Guide] ➜ ➜ ➜ https://bit.ly/2XHbDRm • ➡️ Question: • You have a patient that complains of left-sided chest pain while receiving mechanical ventilation. While assessing the patient, you note tachypnea, a weak and thready pulse, tracheal deviation to the right, and decreased breath sounds and hyperresonance on the left. Which of the following would you recommend? • A. Suctioning • B. A bronchoscopy • C. The insertion of a chest tube • D. A thoracentesis • • ➡️ Rationale Explanation: • For this one, you have to be able to interpret the patient’s signs that were given in the question. All of the physical assessment signs detected here are consistent with a tension pneumothorax. Remember, patients with a pneumothorax will typically show tracheal deviation away from the affected side. They will also show decreased breath sounds and hyperresonant percussion note on the affected side as well. So in the case of a tension pneumothorax, the patient requires the immediate insertion of a chest tube on the affected side. • 💥Pneumothorax [Full Guide] ➜ ➜ ➜ https://bit.ly/2XHbDRm • ————— • 📗 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.
