Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Titrating oxygen to keep oxygen saturation greater than 90% is indicated for the collaborative problem of potential complication: cardiac dysrhythmia in a patient who has had a repair of a descending thoracic aortic aneurysm. Dysrhythmias can occur due to changes in cardiac function after thoracic surgery, and maintaining adequate oxygenation can help prevent them. Assessing neurological signs hourly, maintaining the patient on complete bed rest, and monitoring urinary output and daily blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine levels are not specifically indicated for this collaborative problem.
