Post by: nurse2mrow on Sep 16, 2014
The patient has suffered an air embolus. The quick-thinking nurse immediately:
1.   turns the patient to the left side and lowers the head of the bed.
2.   calls the Code Team.
3.   gives O2 at 100% in a nonrebreathing mask.
4.   notifies the charge nurse.


This is for my medical nursing class
