You have a 52- year old male patient who comes in stating, “I feel like I can’t breathe.” Patients’ respirations are 28 breaths per minute and their heart rate is 115 beats per minute. The patient then grabs his chest and says, “My chest hurts so bad, please help!” You ask the patient to rate the pain on a scale from 0-10, 10 being the worst pain ever. The patient replies, “10, it hurts so badly!” You then ask the patient to describe what the pain feels like, the patient reports that his pain feels like pressure. Your patient then starts to become diaphoretic and pale. You take an EKG that shows Sinus Tachycardia. The pulse oximeter shows 100% on room air and the patients’ blood pressure is 120/80 mmHg.
Identify the Objective and Subjective Data.
You are having a conversation with a friend. Before you starting a very long
sentence you take a deep breath. What group of respiratory muscles are you
using as you begin speaking?
O Inspiratory Muscles, to counteract elastic recoil
Inspiratory Muscles, to help elastic recoil
O Expiratory Muscles, to counteract recoil
Expiratory Muscles, to help elastic recoil
O You aren't using any muscles, you're relying on elastic recoil alone
