27 Basic Free CNA Practice Test 2015 Questions and Answers on Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Respiratory Distress Syndrorme (RDS) occurs due to the immature development respiratory tract and inadequate amount surfactant which lead the difficulties in breathing for patients. As a NA, you aren’t allowed to give any medication interventions without asking doctors but you can giving some nursing care to promote the patients’ comfort. To give a correct care, you first have enough knowledge of respiratory distress syndrome. With the aim of enriching your understanding of this nursing field to prepare for your exams or do your jobs better in workplaces, we present a thorough content about the symptoms and observation signs of respiratory distress in 27 Basic Free CNA Practice Test 2015 Questions and Answers on Respiratory Distress Syndrome. Only practice few times with these free CNA test questions, you will never need to worry and think about what you should do in case of patients with respiratory failure.

27 Basic Free CNA Practice Test 2015 Questions and Answers on Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Manifestations of RDS?

• Pneumothorax, PDA, Necrotizing enterocolitis,Intraventricular hemorrhage, Retinopathy of prematurity, Death

ABG manifestations of RDS?

• Decrease O2 concentration initially,Carbon dioxide levels increase - as deterioration continues
• Immature development respiratory tractInadequate amount surfactant
• metabolic acidosis slowly develops, Carbon dioxide increases mixed metabolic and respiratory acidosis develops
• Hypoxemia, Pulmonary vasoconstriction, Reduced cardiac output
