ATI RN Pharmacology 2019 III Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse in a critical care unit is caring for a client who is postoperative following a right pneumonectomy. After extubation from the ventilator, in which of the following positions should the client be placed?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: SemiFowler's position. Placing the client in SemiFowler's position (head of the bed elevated at 30-45 degrees) after extubation post right pneumonectomy helps improve lung expansion, ventilation, and oxygenation. This position aids in decreasing the risk of aspiration and promoting optimal respiratory function.

Choice A (Prone) is incorrect because it would compromise lung expansion and increase the risk of respiratory distress.
Choice C (Sims) is incorrect as it is a lateral position that would not support optimal lung function post pneumonectomy.
Choice D (On the nonoperative side) is incorrect as it may lead to decreased lung expansion on the surgical side.
