He is breathing at 15 breaths per minute. The chest is moving equally. Consider assessing the patient's breathing and respiratory rate as part of the first assessments you do. 7:36 You checked the radial pulse. The pulse is strong, 80 per minute, and regular. Consider assessing the patient's pulse as part of the first assessments you do. 8:02 You measured the <Bloodpressure>blood pressure<> at 134/80 mm Hg. Consider assessing the patient's blood pressure as part of the first assessments you do. 8:10 Patient status - ECG: Sinus rhythm. Heart rate: 79. Pulse: Present. Blood pressure: 132/80 mm Hg. Respiration: 15. Conscious state: Appropriate. SpO2: 97%. Temp: 98 F (36.9 C) 8:20 You disconnected the <Pulseoximeter>pulse oximeter.<> 8:46 You checked the eye movements.

Blood pressure: 134/80 mm Hg. Respiration: 15. Conscious state: Appropriate. SpO2: 97%. Temp: 98 F (36.9 C) 11:19 A patient handoff was performed. This patient underwent a right total knee arthroplasty (TKA) yesterday morning. He is a carrier of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and has been placed in contact precautions. He has a history of osteoarthritis and mild hypertension. The scenario addresses aspects of infection control, and the students are expected to adhere to local protocols, including use of personal protective equipment, contact precautions, and hand hygiene. CDC recommends contact precautions when the facility (based on national or local regulations) deems MRSA to be of special clinical and epidemiologic significance. Moreover, ongoing postoperative assessments and interventions are implemented to decrease the risk for postoperative complications. If postoperative complications occur, the nurse provides physical assessments and care, provides emotional support to the patient and family, and carries out prescribed treatments.
