You are a excellent teacher. thank you for making this so easy by explaining everything so throughly! Very helpful, much better than in the class that I take. You went over so much more than my teacher. Thanks again so much!
I love your videos they are great and very informative thank you for each of them it's wonderful to actually get some clarification on the correct way to do things as I'm training to be a EMT ;))
nice video, some suggestion I would advise is to introduce yourself to the patient with your name and professional designation....in my training as a student RT, I've been told to place the arm across the chest to the hold the opposite shoulder for RR, but I prefer using the abdominal method. There is a way to get around the RR dilemma...when you take the pulse rate by palpation you can continue to hold the radial site for an additional 30s, in that time count their RR by noticing chest motion
A pulse oximetry sensor can be clipped over the tip of a digit to detect the oxygen saturation of arterial blood. Oxymetry reflects trends in oxygenation before, during, and after intubation. And, pulse oximetry provides no information about the adequacy of ventilation, therefore it cannot substitute for ABG determinations in most clinical settings.
Great video. I have one question (I haven't been able to find the answer in my Fundamentals book or any where else) prior to putting the finger clip on the patient/client, is it necessary to either wipe the patient's/client's finger or finger clip with an alcohol pad, as this equipment is being used on all patients/clients. Thank you.
for you not to be there long feeling the pulse you can also do 10 sec multiply by 6, or when being sick you could do 15 second multiply by 4 as well it still going to be accurate. you don't have to be there too long to read a pulse... but over all nicely done,
for me its hard to do the blood pressure and pulse cuz i lose the consentration...and the person that im trying to take their vital signs they move a lot lol
