Описание к видео Pneumonia Treatment, Nursing Interventions, Antibiotics Medication | NCLEX Respiratory Part 2

Pneumonia nursing interventions lecture and medication treatment which includes antibiotics. Pneumonia is a lower respiratory disorder that affects the lung parenchyma which includes the alevolar ducts, bronchioles, and aveoli. This respiratory disorder is due to an infection (caused by either bacteria, virus, or fungi) that causes inflammation of the alevoli sacs. Patients with pneumonia can experience respiratory acidosis and other complications. The nurse's role is very important when providing care to the patient experiencing pneumonia. Some nursing interventions for pneumonia include: monitoring respiratory system (lung sounds, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation), skin color for cyanosis, especially the lips, nasotracheal suction as needed, maintaining patient hydration with 2-3 L of fluid orally (if not contraindicated), educating about incentive spirometer usage, collecting sputum cultures if ordered, encourage education about up-to-date vaccinations (especially Pneumovax and annual flu shot) and administering medications per doctor's order. This lecture concentrates on the antibiotics used to treat pneumonia. As the nurse, it is important to know the major side effects of these medications, if they are narrow or broad spectrum, and which drugs are included in each category. These medications include: vancomycin, macrolides, tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones, penicillins, cephalosporins. Don't forget to watch part 1 which discusses pneumonia pathophysiology, causes, types, and signs and symptoms of pneumona.
