A child who has a tracheostomy.


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a child who has a tracheostomy. After suctioning the tracheostomy, the nurse should use which of the following findings to determine that the procedure was effective?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Clear breath sounds. After suctioning a tracheostomy, the nurse should listen for clear breath sounds to ensure the airway is patent and free of secretions. This indicates that the procedure effectively removed any obstructing secretions, allowing for proper airflow. Brisk capillary refill (
A) and stable oxygen saturation (
C) are important assessments but do not directly indicate the effectiveness of tracheostomy suctioning. Increased respiratory rate (
B) may indicate respiratory distress but does not specifically confirm the tracheostomy suctioning was effective.
