1. The critical care nurse is mentoring a new nurse on hemodynamic monitoring at the bedside of a critically ill patient. The patient has a right radial intra-arterial line, and a right subclavian pulmonary artery pressure monitoring system with a thermodilution catheter. The critical care nurse demonstrates proper management of the invasive hemodynamic monitoring lines to the new nurse and obtains the ordered parameters (mean arterial pressure [MAP], central venous pressure [CVP], pulmonary artery systolic [PAS], pulmonary artery diastolic [PAD], pulmonary artery wedge pressure [PAWP], cardiac output [CO], and cardiac index [CI] measurement). The critical care nurse meets with the new nurse afterward at the nurses’ station and encourages the new nurse to share what the new nurse understands in regard to invasive hemodynamic monitoring. The new nurse is currently taking critical care classes on hemodynamic monitoring.

a.     What are the indications for the hemodynamic monitoring methods (intra-arterial line) and the pulmonary artery pressure monitoring system?

b.     What are the various ordered parameters used for in the case study? (MAP, CVP, PAS/PAD, PAWP, CO, CI).

c.     Indicate why a patient’s MAP, CVP, PAS/PAD, PAWP, CO, and CI would be measured. Include information on various types of patients.

d.     Indicate why MAP, CVP, PAS/PAD, PAWP, CO, and CI would be elevated and how the nurse would respond to each or how an elevated reading would be corrected.

e.     Indicate why MAP, CVP, PAS/PAD, PAWP, CO, and CI would be elevated and how the nurse would respond to each or how an elevated reading would be corrected.

f.      What are the nursing responsibilities when caring for the patient with hemodynamic monitoring system. Include arterial line and pulmonary artery catheter. (Include the zeroing/flushing/square wave test, etc.)

g.     Of what potential complications should the nurse be aware when caring for the patient with hemodynamic monitoring?

Locate a simple sentence in the passage below:

Emma Gonzales is a high school senior that addresses her concerns about gun control to government and gun advocates, after the incident involved a shooter that killed 17 people at her school. Kaitlin Bennett is a gun rights advocate, believes that any student should have the right to carry firearms, given the potential danger.

Ethos, logos, and pathos are the three main rhetorical appeals they both use to create compelling arguments to persuade their audience to side with them.

Emma Gonzales uses all three of these writer’s tactics in her speech on gun control to convince her audience to side with her position that gun laws should be changed.

  • Explain why a simple sentence was most effective in this case, or explain why it might need to be changed to a different sentence type.
  • Look at the sentences before and after. Are they both simple sentences as well? If so, does sentence variety need to be addressed here? Why or why not?
