Question 1

Which evidence-based intervention should the nurse use to prevent pneumonia in the patient receiving mechanical ventilation?
◦ Changing the ventilator circuit daily
◦ Administration of an H2 antagonist to prevent peptic ulcers
◦ Elevation of the head of the bed to 15 degrees to prevent aspiration
◦ Aseptic technique when performing oral hygiene

Question 2

Which statement accurately describes the purpose of sedation interruption for a patient to prevent ventilator-associated pneumonia?
◦ New data show that sedation interruption is no longer recommended because there is concern about the safety of doing it.
◦ The patient's own tidal volume and respiratory rate can be evaluated during sedation interruption.
◦ During sedation interruption the patient has a chance to take deep breaths and improve ventilation while more awake.
◦ Interrupting sedation relieves stress, which decreases the chance of infection.
