1. Air/Pulmonary Embolism (S&S: chest pain, difficulty breathing, tachycardia, pale/cyanotic,
sense of impending doom) --> turn pt to left side and lower the head of the bed.

2. Woman in Labor w/ Un-reassuring FHR (late decels, decreased variability, fetal
bradycardia, etc) --> turn on left side (and give O2, stop Pitocin, increase IV fluids)

3. Tube Feeding w/ Decreased LOC --> position pt on right side (promotes emptying of the
stomach) with the HOB elevated (to prevent aspiration)

4. During Epidural Puncture --> side-lying

5. After Lumbar Puncture (and also oil-based Myelogram)--> pt lies in flat supine (to prevent
headache and leaking of CSF)
6. Pt w/ Heat Stroke --> lie flat w/ legs elevated

7. During Continuous Bladder Irrigation (CBI) --> catheter is taped to thigh so leg should be
kept straight. No other positioning restrictions.

8. After Myringotomy --> position on side of affected ear after surgery (allows drainage of
secretions)

9. After Cataract Surgery --> pt will sleep on unaffected side with a night shield for 1-4
weeks.

10. After Thyroidectomy --> low or semi-Fowler's, support head, neck and shoulders.

11. Infant w/ Spina Bifida --> position prone (on abdomen) so that sac does not rupture

12. Buck's Traction (skin traction) --> elevate foot of bed for counter-traction

13. After Total Hip Replacement --> don't sleep on operated side, don't flex hip more than 45-
60 degrees, don't elevate HOB more than 45 degrees. Maintain hip abduction by separating
thighs with pillows.

14. Prolapsed Cord --> knee-chest position or Trendelenburg


2

,15. Infant w/ Cleft Lip --> position on back or in infant seat to prevent trauma to suture line.
While feeding, hold in upright position.

16. To Prevent Dumping Syndrome (post-operative ulcer/stomach surgeries) --> eat in
reclining position, lie down after meals for 20-30 minutes (also restrict fluids during meals, low
CHO and fiber diet, small frequent meals)

17. Above Knee Amputation --> elevate for first 24 hours on pillow, position prone daily to
provide for hip extension.

18. Below Knee Amputation --> foot of bed elevated for first 24 hours, position prone daily to
provide for hip extension.

19. Detached Retina --> area of detachment should be in the dependent position

20. Administration of Enema --> position pt in left side-lying (Sim's) with knee flexed

21. After Supratentorial Surgery (incision behind hairline) --> elevate HOB 30-45 degrees

22. After Infratentorial Surgery (incision at nape of neck)--> position pt flat and lateral on
either side.

23. During Internal Radiation --> on bedrest while implant in place

24. Autonomic Dysreflexia/Hyperreflexia (S&S: pounding headache, profuse sweating, nasal
congestion, goose flesh, bradycardia, hypertension) --> place client in sitting position (elevate
HOB) first before any other implementation.

25. Shock --> bedrest with extremities elevated 20 degrees, knees straight, head slightly
elevated (modified Trendelenburg)

26. Head Injury --> elevate HOB 30 degrees to decrease intracranial pressure

27. Peritoneal Dialysis when Outflow is Inadequate --> turn pt from side to side BEFORE
checking for kinks in tubing (according to Kaplan)

28. Lumbar puncture => AFTER the procedure, the client should be placed in the supine
position for 4 to 12 hrs as prescribed. (Saunders 3rd ed p. 229)

Demorol for pancreatitis, NOT morphine sulfate

Myasthenia Gravis: worsens with exercise and improves with rest.
Myasthenia Crisis: a positive reaction to Tensilon--will improve symptoms
Cholinergic Crisis: caused by excessive medication-stop med-giving Tensilon will make it worse

Head injury medication: Mannitol (osmotic diuretic)-crystallizes at room temp so ALWAYS use
filter needle

Prior to a liver biospy its important to be aware of the lab result for prothrombin time

From the a** (diarrhea)= metabolic acidosis
From the mouth (vomitus)=metabolic alkalosis

specific gravity <1.010; Semi-Fowler’s

Diabetes Insipidus (decreased ADH): excessive urine output and thirst, dehydration,
weakness, administer Pitressin
SIADH (increased ADH): change in LOC, decreased deep tendon reflexes, tachycardia, n/v/a,
HA; administer Declomycin, diuretics

Hypokalemia: muscle ewakness, dysrhythmias, increase K (raisins, bananas, apricots, oranges,
beans, potatoes, carrots, celery)
Hyperkalemia: MURDER – muscle weakness, urine (oliguria/anuria), respiratory depression,
decreased cardiac contractility, ECG changes, reflexes

Hyponatremia: nausea, muscle cramps, increased ICP, muscular twitching, convulsion; osmotic
diuretics, fluids
Hypernatremia: increased temp, weakness, disorientation/delusions, hypotension, tachycardia;
hypotonic solution
Hypocalcemia: CATS – convulsions, arrhythmias, tetany, spasms and stridor
Hypercalcemia: muscle weakness, lack of coordination, abdominal pain, confusion, absent
tendon reflexes, sedative effect on CNS

HypoMg: tremors, tetany, seizures, dyrshythmias, depression, confusion, dysphagia; dig toxicity
HyperMg: depresses the CNS, hypotension, facial flushing, muscle ewakness, absent deep
tendon reflexes, shallow respirations, emergency

1. Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS):
-NMS is like S&M;
-you get hot (hyperpyrexia)
-stiff (increased muscle tone)
-sweaty (diaphoresis)
-BP, pulse, and respirations go up &
-you start to drool
