Assessing tissue oxygenation.
Abstract
Although physical examination remains an important part of the nursing assessment, assessment of tissue oxygenation provides additional vital information. Nurses who are caring for patients with compromised functioning must have a basic understanding of the physiological relationships between oxygen saturation, cardiac output, and acid-base balance and must be able to plan nursing care based on this knowledge.
