Question 1 of 5

A nurse is teaching a group of nursing students about brain herniation. Which of the following interventions should the nurse include as a possible treatment for brain herniation?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Hyperventilation is a potential intervention for managing brain herniation as it helps temporarily lower intracranial pressure (ICP) by inducing cerebral vasoconstriction. By increasing the rate and depth of breathing, hyperventilation reduces the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) in the blood, leading to vasoconstriction of cerebral blood vessels and a decrease in cerebral blood flow. This can help alleviate symptoms associated with increased ICP and reduce the risk of further brain injury.
