Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A primary health care provider orders chest physiotherapy with percussion and vibration for a client. After the health care provider leaves, the client says, 'I still don't understand the purpose of this therapy.' Which statement should be included in the nurse's response?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Helps clear the airways of excessive secretions. Chest physiotherapy with percussion and vibration helps mobilize and loosen secretions in the lungs, making it easier for the client to cough them up and clear the airways. This technique does not eliminate the need to cough (
B) but rather facilitates productive coughing. It also does not limit the production of bronchial mucus (
D) but assists in clearing excessive secretions.
Choice A is incorrect because chest physiotherapy does not specifically promote the flow of secretions to the base of the lungs; instead, it aids in moving secretions throughout the lungs for removal.
