COLLEGE OF NURSING Erik Erikson labeled the crisis of this period as Integrity vs Despair. Rather than focus on the external adjustments related to the series of physical social losses experienced by the elderly, Erikson focused on an internal struggle. As death approaches, people begin a life review that involves deciding whether or not their lives have been worthwhile. This opens them to the ultimate despair in the view that their lives have not been what it could or what should have been, and that it is now too late to do anything about it. The resulting disgust is actually contempt for themselves, when facing such despair invokes the search for ego integrity. Ego integrity involves acceptance of one and only life cycle as something that had to be and that, when necessity permitted no substitution. It includes accepting the mistakes that were made, while recognizing the good things that were accomplished, developing a sense of inevitable order of the past it also involves a feeling of companionship, “with an ordering way of distant times and different pursuits” or a detached, philosophical wisdom about life in general rather than only one’s own in particular.

ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY THE HEART Function and Location of the Heart The heart's job is to pump blood around the body. The heart is located in between the two lungs. It lies left of the middle of the chest. Structure of the Heart The heart is a muscle about the size of a fist, and is roughly cone-shaped. It is about 12cm long, 9cm across the broadest point and about 6cm thick. The pericardium is a fibrous covering which wraps around the whole heart. It holds the heart in place but allows it to move as it beats. The wall of the heart itself is made up of a special type of muscle called cardiac muscle. Chambers of the Heart The heart has two sides, the right side and the left side. The heart has four chambers. The left and right side each have two chambers, a top chamber and a bottom chamber.

Nursing Case Study

University of Perpetual Help – Molino Campus

10

COLLEGE OF NURSING The two top chambers are known as the left and right atria(singular: atrium). The atria receive blood from different sources. The left atrium receives blood from the lungs and the right atrium receives blood from the rest of the body. The bottom two chambers are known as the left and right ventricles. The ventricles pump blood out to different parts of the body. The right ventricle pumps blood to the lungs while the left ventricle pumps out blood to the rest of the body. The ventricles have much thicker walls than the atria which allows them to perform more work by pumping out blood to the whole body. Blood Vessels Blood Vessel is tubes which carry blood. Veins are blood vessels which carry blood from the body back to the heart. Arteries are blood vessels which carry blood from the heart to the body. There are also microscopic blood vessels which connect arteries and veins together called capillaries. There are a few main blood vessels which connect to different chambers of the heart. The aorta is the largest artery in our body. The left ventricle pumps blood into the aorta which then carries it to the rest of the body through smaller arteries. The pulmonary trunk is the large artery which the right ventricle pumps into. It splits into pulmonary arteries which take the blood to the lungs. The pulmonary veins take blood from the lungs to the left atrium. All the other veins in our body drain into the inferior vena cava (IVC) or the superior. These two large veins then take the blood from the rest of the body into the right atrium. Valves Valves are fibrous flaps of tissue found between the heart chambers and in the blood vessels. They are rather like gates which prevent blood from flowing in the wrong direction. They are found in a number of places. Valves between the atria and ventricles are known as the right and left atrioventricular valves, otherwise known as the tricuspid and mitral valves respectively. Valves between the ventricles and the great arteries are known as the semilunar valves. The aortic is found at the base of the aorta, while the pulmonary valve is found the base of the pulmonary trunk. There are also many valves found in veins throughout the body. However, there are no valves found in any of the other arteries besides the aorta and pulmonary trunk. What is the Cardiovascular System The cardiovascular system refers to the heart, blood vessels and the blood. Blood contains oxygen and other nutrients which your body needs to survive. The body takes these essential nutrients from the blood. At the same time, the body dumps waste products like carbon dioxide, back into the blood, so they can be removed. The main function of the cardiovascular system is therefore to maintain blood flow to all parts of the body, to allow it to survive. Veins deliver used blood from the body back to the heart. Blood in the veins is low in oxygen (as it has been taken out by the body) and high in carbon dioxide (as the body has unloaded it back into the blood). All the veins drain into the superior and inferior vena cava which then drain into the right atrium. The right atrium pumps blood into the right ventricle. Then the right ventricle pumps blood

COLLEGE OF NURSING to the pulmonary trunk, through the pulmonary arteries and into the lungs. In the lungs the blood picks up oxygen that we breathe in and gets rid of carbon dioxide, which we breathe out. The blood is becomes rich in oxygen which the body can use. From the lungs, blood drains into the left atrium and is then pumped into the left ventricle. The left ventricle then pumps this oxygen-rich blood out into the aorta which then distributes it to the rest of the body through other arteries. The main arteries which branch off the aorta and take blood to specific parts of the body are: Carotid arteries, which take blood to the neck and head Coronary arteries, which provide blood supply to the heart itself Hepatic artery, which takes blood to the liver with branches going to the stomach Mesenteric artery, which takes blood to the intestines Renal arteries, which takes blood to the kidneys Femoral arteries, which take blood to the legs The body is then able to use the oxygen in the blood to carry out its normal functions. This blood will again return back to the heart through the veins and the cycle continues.

Blood Flow of the Heart The heart is completely divided into a right and left halves. These 2 halves of the heart act as separate pumps, and there is no mixing of blood between them. Each is in charge of pumping blood through one of the two blood vessel circuits.

COLLEGE OF NURSING

The right heart pumps blood to the pulmonary circuit, where the blood picks up oxygen from the lungs. The left heart then pumps it into the systemic circuit, where the blood delivers oxygen to the tissues that need it. Finally, the blood returns to the right heart and the cycle repeats itself.

Blood always leave the heart through arteries, which include the aorta and pulmonary arteries. Conversely, blood enters the heart through the veins, the largest being the pulmonary veins the vena cava.

Indication/ Analysis

Tracheostomy / July 5 2011

A tracheostomy is a surgically created opening in the neck leading directly to the trachea (the breathing tube). It is maintained open with a hollow tube called a tracheostomy tube.

A tracheostomy is usually done for one of three reasons: (1) to bypass an obstructed upper airway (an object obstructing the upper airway will prevent oxygen from the mouth to reach the lungs); (2) to clean and remove secretions from the airway; and (3) to more easily, and usually more safely, deliver oxygen to the lungs. • • •

NURSING RESPONSIBILITIES Preparatory Nursing Measures. In addition to routine preparation of the patient unit for postoperative care, the following measures should be planned in advance. (1) The patient will require constant attendance for at least the first 48hours. The nursing personnel must remember two important things: the patient's life depends upon a clear airway and the patient will have a temporary loss of voice. Therefore, the patient must be observed closely for airway patency and immediate action taken when any adverse signs or symptoms are present. The patient wills feel anxious about his inability to communicate with his voice. Always have the call bell available to the patient. Devise a temporary means of communication such as writing notes or (2) For the first few days postoperatively, the patient should be kept in a room where the temperature and humidity can be maintained at optimum levels. Increased temperature and humidity will help to reduce the tracheal irritation that results when inspired air has bypassed the natural warming and moisturizing of the nasopharyngeal airway. (3) The patient's room should be supplied with a variety of equipment necessary to the care of the patient. Such things include suction equipment, a sparetracheostomy tube set, and

(1) Always apply basic principles of aseptic technique when caring for the incision and the airway. When suctioning, use separate set-ups for pharyngeal and tracheostomy suctioning.(2) Constantly observe the patient for signs of respiratory obstruction such as restlessness, cyanosis, increased pulse, or gurgling noises during respiration

Central Venous Pressure / July 5 2011

Wound debridement / July 5 2011

Central venous pressure is considered a direct measurement of the blood pressure in the right atrium and vena cava. It is acquired by threading a central venous catheter (subclavian double lumen central line shown) into any of several large veins. It is threaded so that the tip of the catheter rests in the lower third of the superior vena cava. The pressure monitoring assembly is attached to the distal port of a multilumen central vein catheter.

An open wound or ulcer can not be properly evaluated until the dead tissue or foreign matter is removed. Wounds that contain necrotic and ischemic (low oxygen content) tissue take longer to close and heal. This is because necrotic tissue provides an ideal growth medium

COLLEGE OF NURSING for bacteria, especially for Bacteroides spp. and Clostridium perfringens that causes the gas gangrene so feared in military medical practice. Though a wound may not necessarily be infected, the bacteria can cause inflammation and strain the body's ability to fight infection. Debridement is also used to treat pockets of pus called abscesses. Abscesses can develop into a general infection that may invade the bloodstream (sepsis) and lead to amputation and even death. Burned tissue or tissue exposed to corrosive substances tends to form a hard black crust, called an eschar, while deeper tissue remains moist and white, yellow and soft, or flimsy and inflamed. Eschars may also require debridement to promote healing.
