Rationale:
The nurse should apply the ABC priority-setting framework. This framework emphasizes the
basic core of human functioning- having an open airway, being able to breathe in adequate
amounts of oxygen, and circulating oxygen to the body's organs via the blood. An alteration in
any of these can indicate a threat to life, and is the nurse's priority concern. When applying the
ABC priority-setting framework, airway is always the highest priority because the airway must be
clear and open for oxygen exchange to occur. Circulation is the third-highest priority in the ABC
priority-setting framework because delivery of oxygen to critical organs only occurs if the heart
and blood vessels are capable of efficiently carrying oxygen to them. ESWL is the application of
found, laser, or dry shock wave energies to break a kidney stone into small pieces. The shock
waves are initiated during the R wave of the ECG to prevent dysrhythmia. When using the
airway, breathing, circulation approach to client care, the nurse should determine report of
palpitations is a manifestation of dysrhythmias and is the priority finding.
