Complex Patient Scenarios

A 68-year-old patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is admitted to the medical unit with acute exacerbation. The patient presents with increased dyspnea, productive cough with purulent sputum, and confusion. Vital signs: BP 140/90 mmHg, HR 110 bpm, RR 28/min, O2 sat 88% on room air, temperature 101.2°F (38.4°C). ABG results show pH 7.32, PaCO2 58 mmHg, PaO2 55 mmHg, HCO3- 28 mEq/L. What is the nurse's priority action?

해설
In COPD exacerbation with hypoxemia (O2 sat 88%) and respiratory acidosis, priority is low-flow oxygen (2-3 L/min) to correct hypoxemia while avoiding suppression of hypoxic drive. Other interventions (bronchodilators, sputum culture, family education) are important but secondary to oxygenation.
