一位護理師正在管理一位氣喘急性惡化的病人。哪些評估發現需要立即介入?(選所有適合的)
A nurse is managing a client with acute exacerbation of asthma. Which assessment findings require immediate intervention? (Select all that apply.)
- AUse of accessory muscles to breathe.✓ 正解使用輔助肌肉呼吸。
- BPeak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) is 70% of personal best.峰值呼氣流速(PEFR)為個人最佳值的 70%。
- CClient is able to speak in short sentences.病人能說短句。
- DDiminished or absent breath sounds.✓ 正解呼吸音減弱或消失。
- EHeart rate of 110 beats/min.心率 110 次/分。
選項 A(使用輔助呼吸肌)和 D(呼吸音減弱或消失)均指示嚴重的呼吸窘迫,可能面臨呼吸衰竭。輔助肌使用表示病人費力呼吸;呼吸音減弱或消失提示嚴重的支氣管收縮或氣道阻塞。選項 B(PEFR 70%)屬中度惡化,C(可說短句)表示情況尚可,E(心率 110)雖快,但若無其他嚴重症狀,相對較不緊急。
Use of accessory muscles and diminished or absent breath sounds both indicate severe respiratory distress and impending respiratory failure—they require immediate intervention. A PEFR of 70% indicates moderate exacerbation (needs treatment but not emergency intervention); the ability to speak in short sentences indicates relatively preserved ventilation; tachycardia is common but less critical than the airway findings.
兩地對氣喘急性惡化評估標準一致。美國有較多標準化評估工具;台灣護理師依臨床經驗判斷,並盡快執行治療。
