Title: The assessment by the nurse at the bedside of a patient with a chest tube attach
Post by: nurse2mrow on Sep 16, 2014
The assessment by the nurse at the bedside of a patient with a chest tube attached to a water seal drainage that would require intervention is:
1.   dependent loops in the chest tube.
2.   the patient is in a semi-Fowler’s position.
3.   changing level of water in the water seal chamber.
4.   level of drainage increase of 20 mL in 8 hours.


This is for my medical nursing class
