and loosen
clothing
Instruct S.O. to
provide an
increase fluid
intake for the
child
Instruct S.O. to
provide
adequate rest
periods for the
child
Give
Expectorant
and
bronchodilator
To obtain baseline
data
To know patient
general condition
To promote and
improve
ventilation
To promote
comfort and
adequate
ventilation
To liquefy the
secretions
Rest will prevent
fatigue and
decrease oxygen
demand to further
mobilize the
secretions
To clear airway
when secretions
are blocking
To indicate
increase oxygen
saturation
Short term:
After 3-4 hours of NI
pt. shall have
demonstrated improve
airway clearance
reduction of congestion
with clear breath
sounds and Improve
RR
Long term:
After 2-3 days of NI pt.
shall have established

child
Administer
oxygen therapy
as ordered
To obtain
baseline data
To promote
maximal
inspiration
enhance
expectoration of
secretions in
order to improve
ventilation
To avoid
coughing
Rest will prevent
fatigue and
decreased
oxygen demand
To promote
drainage of
