  • 14. MAINTAIN THE FLOWSHEET • A well organized flow sheet provides around-the-clock information regarding the different organ systems Major categories appropriate for an ICU flow sheet include: 1. Vital signs 2. Neurological status 3. Hemodynamic parameters 4. Ventilator settings 5. Respiratory parameters 6. Inputs and outputs 7. Laboratory data 8. Medications.
  • 15. Assessment of the patients & planning for patient care in CCU/ICU • Patient who receiving sedatives and narcotics drugs nurse should carefully monitor side effects associated with this drugs. • All activities carried out in ICU/CCU towards patient treatment must be record and report appropriately. • Control nosocomial infection (HAI) appropriately according to CCU/ICU policy.
  • 16. Assessment of the patients & planning for patient care in CCU/ICU • To provide for continuous monitoring of the patient. Such as: 1. Continuous monitoring ECG. 2. Vital signs, heart sounds, breath sounds, fluids intake and output, neurological status, bowel & bladder movements, skin integrity, nutrition status. 3. Pain assessment
  • 17. Assessment of the patients & planning for patient care in CCU/ICU • Patients who are under mechanical ventilator & endotrachial intubation the nurse should give special focus. For example: 1. Monitoring patient status 2. Monitoring ventilator settings 3. Prevent complications 4. Prevent infections 5. Oral hygiene 6. Suctioning 7. Position changes 8. Eye care 9. Prevent displacement of tubes
