Suctioning Oro-Nasal Secretions Power Point Presentation

Introduction

• Many  patients with respiratory problems must be suctioned to remove excess secretions and mucus from the airway.
• Suctioning  may also be indicated in unconscious patients or in patients with an ineffective cough.
• A new sterile suction kit is used each time the patient is suctioned so that the organisms are not introduced into the lungs.
