Respiratory System: Nursing Considerations and Assessment Guide

Explore nursing considerations for various drug classifications (antitussives, antibiotics), respiratory defense mechanisms, age-related changes, diagnostic studies, and assessment techniques for the respiratory system. Learn about expected outcomes, interventions, and client teaching for optimal care. Understand the significance of arterial blood gas values and oxygenation.
