Student nurses, don’t make the mistake of assuming normal oxygen saturations mean your patient is breathing adequately! 🩺
Understanding the difference between oxygenation and ventilation is essential when recognising respiratory deterioration, especially in patients receiving oxygen or medicines that can suppress breathing.

Can you use a nasopharyngeal airway (NPA) if your patient has a gag reflex? 🫁

Student nurses, let’s make airway management a little easier!

A Guedel airway (oropharyngeal airway) is generally used in an unconscious patient without a gag reflex.

But what if your patient still has their gag reflex and needs help maintaining their airway?

A nasopharyngeal airway (NPA) may be an option because it’s often better tolerated in patients with intact airway reflexes.

However, an NPA isn’t suitable for everyone. You must consider contraindications, including suspected basal skull fracture and significant midface trauma.

Remember: airway management is about assessing your patient and understanding which interventions are appropriate, not just memorising equipment.

A normal blood pressure doesn’t always mean the patient is stable. Understanding compensatory mechanisms, recognising deterioration and vital signs are essential nursing skills

Student nurses… does it ever feel like there’s SO much to learn and never enough time? 🩺📚

From understanding pathophysiology and pharmacology to remembering clinical skills, preparing for OSCEs and building confidence on placement… nursing can feel overwhelming!

That’s exactly why I created The Student Nurse Hub! 💗

A learning community designed for student nurses, newly qualified nurses and healthcare professionals who want to build their knowledge and clinical confidence.

✨ Easy-to-understand nursing cheat sheets
✨ Pharmacology, anatomy & pathophysiology
✨ Clinical conditions explained simply
✨ Mnemonics and revision resources
✨ OSCE and placement preparation
✨ Clinical skills and nursing assessments
✨ A supportive nursing community

Because nursing isn’t just about memorising information. It’s about understanding WHY things happen and learning to think like a nurse. 🧠

🫀 Student nurses: WHY does left-sided heart failure cause breathlessness?

It’s one thing remembering that breathlessness is a symptom of heart failure… but do you actually understand WHY it happens? 👀

Here’s the pathophysiology made simple! 👇🏼

When the left ventricle struggles to pump blood effectively, pressure starts to build up behind the heart and into the pulmonary circulation.

This increased pressure causes fluid to move into the lung tissue and, in more severe cases, the alveoli.

The result? Pulmonary congestion, impaired gas exchange and breathlessness! 🫁

❤️ Left ventricular dysfunction
⬆️ Increased pulmonary venous pressure
💧 Fluid accumulates in the lungs
🫁 Impaired gas exchange
😮‍💨 Breathlessness

And this is WHY patients with left-sided heart failure may experience:

🫁 Shortness of breath
🩺 Crackles on auscultation
🛏️ Orthopnoea (breathlessness when lying flat)
🌙 Paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnoea (waking up breathless at night)

Remember, student nurses: understanding the WHY makes recognising patient deterioration so much easier.

📚 Save this for your nursing revision and follow for more simplified pathophysiology, clinical reasoning and nursing education to help you feel more confident on placement!
