Introduction REFERENCES
Which intervention would the nurse implement if choanal atresia is suspected in a newborn immediately after birth?The child can not breathe during normal circumstances and can only breath when they open their airway to cry. Because of this, infants with bilateral choanal atresia often require intubation immediately after delivery.
Which findings would be considered normal for a patients teeth?Normal findings might be documented as: “White teeth with no loose, missing, chipped or broken teeth. Gums are pink in colour with no swelling, bleeding, or pain.” Abnormal findings might be documented as: “Slight yellow discolouration of the teeth.
Which findings would be causes of concern to the nurse while examining a patient's gums?Abnormal findings include swelling, cyanosis, paleness, dryness, sponginess, bleeding or discoloration. Diseases include leukoplakia, epulis, gingival hyperplasia, gingivitis, periodontitis and aphthous ulcer (canker sore).
Which information would the nurse document for a normal tonsil assessment quizlet?Which information would the nurse document for a normal tonsil assessment?
