  1. Chapter 17 Treatment Orders

  2. Objectives • Identify two procedures performed to repair obstructed coronary blood vessels. • State the purpose of the cardiopulmonary (respiratory care) department. • Explain the purpose of hyperbaric oxygen therapy. • Identify two basic types of traction. • Name the traction setup used by patients to assist them to move in bed.

  3. Objectives, continued • Given a list of treatments, identify which department would perform them. • State the purpose of the physical therapy department. • State the purpose of the occupational therapy department. • List the two main types of dialysis.

  4. Lesson 17.1

  5. Cardiovascular Therapies • Cardiovascular treatments are often invasive, and may be performed in the cardiac catheterization lab or in the operating room by an interventional cardiologist • The HUC may have to coordinate and schedule invasive cardiovascular treatments • Consent forms are required and special diets and medications may be necessary

  6. Cardiovascular Therapies, continued • Cardiovascular treatments are often performed directly following invasive cardiovascular diagnostic tests done in the cardiac cath lab (as discussed in Chapter 16) • Angioplasty may follow coronary angiography • Insertion of a pacemaker may follow electrophysiology studies

  7. Cardiovascular Therapies, continued Examples of cardiovascular therapies: • Insertion of a cardiac pacemaker • Insertion of an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) • Angioplasty

  8. Cardiac Pacemaker From Thibodeau GA, Patton KT: Anatomy and physiology, ed 6, St. Louis, 2007, Mosby.

  9. Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator From Lewis SM, Heitkemper MM, Dirksen SR: Medical-surgical nursing, ed 6, St. Louis, 2004, Mosby.

  10. Coronary Stent From LaFleur Brooks M: Exploring medical language: a student-directed approach, ed 6, St. Louis, 2005, Mosby.

  11. Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) From Lewis SM, Heitkemper MM, Dirksen SR: Medical-surgical nursing: assessment and management of clinical problems, ed 5, St. Louis, 2000, Mosby.

  12. Cardiopulmonary (Respiratory Care) Downtime Requisition

  13. Cardiovascular Therapies Examples of angioplasty orders: • Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) • Balloon angioplasty • Heart artery dilatation • Stent placement

  14. Cardiovascular Therapies, continued Surgical intervention: • Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) • Off-pump coronary artery bypass graft (OPCAB) • Minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) • Performed with the aid of a robot (e.g., daVinci)

  15. Cardiopulmonary (Respiratory Care) Department • Respiratory treatments are performed at the patient’s bedside by a respiratory therapist • It is important that the health unit coordinator enter all of the information given in the doctor’s order when ordering a respiratory treatment • The respiratory therapist will read the doctor’s order before performing the treatment

  16. Cardiopulmonary (Respiratory Care) Department, continued Examples of respiratory treatments: • Oxygen (O2) per NP (NC), mask, nasal cath, tent, or ventilator • Intermittent positive pressure breathing (IPPB) • Small volume nebulizer (SVN) • Ultrasonic nebulizer

  17. Wall Outlet for Oxygen

  18. Cardiopulmonary (Respiratory Care) Department • Chest percussion therapy (CPT) • Heated aerosol (HA) • Incentive spirometry (IS) • Biphasic positive airway pressure (BiPAP) • Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) • Metered dose inhaler (MDI)

  19. Cardiopulmonary (Respiratory Care)Mechanical Ventilator The ventilator assists or replaces respiration of the patient. Settings: • IMV mode: intermittent mechanical ventilation • TV: tidal volume • FiO2: fraction of inspired oxygen • PEEP: positive end-expiratory pressure • PS: pressure support

  20. Other Respiratory Orders • Intubation • Insertion of an endotracheal tube • Extubation • Removal of an endotracheal tube • Pre-op teaching

  21. Wound Care Department/Clinic • Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) • 100% oxygen under high pressure in a hyperbaric chamber • Improves healing and stimulates growth of blood vessels

  22. Traction Orders • Traction is the mechanical pull applied to part of the body • The pull is achieved by connecting an apparatus attached to a bed to an apparatus attached to the patient • Traction may be applied to the legs, arms, neck, back, or pelvis to treat fractures, dislocations, and long-duration muscle spasms, and to prevent or correct deformities

  23. Traction Orders, continued Two main types of traction: • Skeletal traction • Skin traction

  24. Traction Orders, continued Examples of skin traction orders: • Skin traction 5# to left arm • Skin traction 7# to pelvis • Left unilateral Buck’s traction

  25. Traction Orders, continued Examples of skeletal traction orders: • Cervical traction with Crutchfield tongs • Thomas leg splint with Steinmann pin with 20# of traction • Traction by gravity left arm

  26. Unilateral Buck’s traction

  27. Crutchfield Tongs From Phipps WJ, Monahan FD, Sands JK, et al: Medical-surgical nursing, ed 7, St. Louis, 2003, Mosby.

  28. Traction Orders Other traction-related orders: • Overhead frame and trapeze: used to assist the patient to move about in bed • Braun frame: a cradle for the limb

  29. Lesson 17.2

  30. Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation • Physical therapy: treats patients to improve and restore their functional mobility • Occupational therapy: works toward rehabilitation of patients, in conjunction with other health team members, to return patients to the greatest possible functional independence

  31. Physical Therapy (PT) Types of physical therapy orders: • Hydrotherapy: • Hubbard tank • Whirlpool • Exercises: • Passive, active, resistive, reeducation, coordination, and relaxation

  32. A Hubbard Tank

  33. Physical Therapy (PT) • Walker train: gait train • Crutch train • Transfer train • Wheelchair mobility • Anterior cruciate ligament repair (ACL) protocol • Total hip arthroplasty (THA) protocol

  34. Physical Therapy (PT), continued • Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) protocol • Continuous passive motion (CPM) • Heat and cold application orders: • Ultrasound • Hydrocollator packs • Ice or cold packs

  35. Continuous Passive Motion From Elkin MK, Perry AG, Potter PA: Nursing interventions and clinical skills, ed 2, St. Louis, 2000, Mosby.

  36. Physical Therapy (PT), continued • Pain relief orders: • Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) • Functional electrical stimulation or electrical stimulation (FES or ES)

  37. Transcutaneous Electric Nerve Stimulation (TENS) From Ignatavicius DD, Workman ML, Mishler MA: Medical-surgical nursing, ed 2, Philadelphia, 1995, Saunders.

  38. Occupational Therapy (OT) • Types of occupational therapy orders: • Activities of daily living (ADL) • Evaluation and treatment • Supply and train in adaptive equipment • Increase mobility • Fabricate cock-up splint for extremity

  39. Dialysis • When the kidneys fail to remove wastes, medical intervention is necessary to sustain life • The kidneys may fail temporarily (acute renal failure) or they may be permanently damaged and become nonfunctional (chronic renal failure and end-stage renal disease [ESRD]) • Two types of dialysis: • Hemodialysis • Peritoneal dialysis

  40. Dialysis, continued • Hemodialysis: • Removal of waste products from the blood by utilization of a machine through which the blood flows • Peritoneal dialysis: • Fluid is introduced into the abdominal cavity that absorbs wastes from the blood through the lining of the abdominal cavity or peritoneum

  41. Radiation Treatments • Performed either in a division of diagnostic imaging or in a separate department • Most patients have radiation therapy on an outpatient basis • The HUC may be asked to set up the patient’s first appointment upon patient discharge
