Incentive Spirometry (Spirometer) NCLEX Review for Nursing with Demonstration

Incentive spirometer NCLEX (or ATI) review with nursing interventions (rationales), demonstration, and why an incentive spirometer is used. This review NCLEX lecture will cover basic lung anatomy, the definition of an incentive spirometry, why it is used, nurse's role, live demonstration, and NCLEX style question you could expect on an exam. As a patient or nurse, it is important you know the proper procedure for using an incentive spirometer. An incentive spirometer is used to help improve lung function in patients and prevent atelectasis, especially prior to surgery. Many times a patient is educated how to use an incentive spirometer prior to surgery that involves the chest, thorax, or abdomen. These patients are at high risk for developing a condition called atelectasis. Atelectasis is a condition where the lung or part of it is collapsed and the alveoli sacs are unable to inflate and perform gas exchange. By using an incentive spirometer prior to and after surgery, it decreases the chances of a patient developing this condition. An incentive spirometer is also used in patients with lung disorders such as COPD and in treatment of pneumonia.

This is so awesome. My daughter is in nursing school preparing to graduate and this will be so helpful. I'm old school and wish we had something like this when I was preparing for NCLEX. Our tests were over two days with four increments of testing, 3 hours each and fill in the circles. LBVS I have to laugh when I see new grads upset because they have to wait 48 hours. We waited 8 weeks!

[@oldstudbuck3583]

I was given the device after outpatient hernia surgery. No instructions on how to use. After a week of using it all wrong I found this video first. Very informative. Thank you.

[@augustineraymond9630]

Thank you Sarah. Your videos have always been my saving grace. I appreciate your effort, time and resources you invest into making this video. Happy Christmas to you and your family. Please don’t stop making the videos.

[@stephenkovaka266]

Hospital doctor: “Here, use this, it will really help you.” I’m a Covid patient recently out of hospital, but received NO explanation like this of the connection between Covid pneumonia, spirometer etc. Thank you so much. I never knew I wd really have to WORK on re-inflating my own lungs. I thot the supplemental O2 WAS the cure, but it is not. It does not re-inflate the alveoli.

[@stefrzchicago]

I was sent home breathless in the ER because of COVID. Doctor refused to give me a steroid or inhaler. She told me to go home as COVID is uncomfortable. Our healthcare in the US is despicable. Pretty sad we have to come to KZbin to learn how to fix our lungs and Amazon to buy the breathing device.

[@mumtazdubai1020]

thank you very much for giving me so valuable advice and GOD bless you for helping students and professionals by these videos.

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

You're most welcome :) Thank you very much for your kind words. God bless!

[@sanamgords3637]

You make everything so much easier to understand! Really appreciate you!!

[@desmondehoppie4758]

Very Informative. Although this is geared towards nurses, the information is helpful for anyone who is trying to improve lung health. The explanations regarding the device and the importance of deep breathing is invaluable. Thank You for taking the time to make this video. Good things to you.

[@naomimakau6445]

[@HOVANA]

Hi. I like your videos. I found them very helpful. Im planing to take nclex very soon. What would you suggest beside your videos and quizzes? Thanks in advance.

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

I definitely recommend practicing as many NCLEX style questions as you can. I also recommend the Saunders Comprehensive Review Guide...it is a great book that contains many practice questions. I used it to prep for NCLEX. I wish you the best when you take NCLEX. Thank you for watching my videos and for taking the quizzes!

[@hannacayago4415]

I am recovering from a broken sternum. I am 63years and 5 9. It's been three weeks sine the break. I can get the top of the indicator to 2,750. Is that good?

[@charlesjackson3433]

Was given one of these after open heart cardiac surgery. I'm 69 yrs old & 180lbs. How far up the tube should I be able raise the pistol up the tube ? I can get up to 1500. It has made a significance in my energy expenditure trying to breath.

[@healthfitnessbysuman6602]

My mom is 65 and she has severe sleep apnea.. She needs to have a gallbladder removal surgery under general anesthesia but doctors say it is very risky.. Has anyone here gone through this experience? Or do you know someone with sleep apnea who went through surgery? Please reply 🙏

[@mumtazdubai1020]

hi , tnx for the video and there is something I want your view on it , I am a nurse and my age is 31 and I made a decision that I wana be a doctor, so I was asking that it is my wish so should I go for it, what is ur opinion for me, I think and gut feeling is that you can give me better advice.

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

Hello! Thanks for watching my videos! Absolutely! If you want to be a doctor...go for it! I've worked with several doctors who were nurses first, and they are EXCELLENT doctors because they have this natural bedside rapport that makes the patient feel at ease. Plus, the experience you have as a nurse gives you advantage in medical school and when you are starting out as a doctor. You know how the medical system works and how diseases present because you've been there providing care as a nurse. I wish you the best...follow your gut! Best wishes!

[@cbroad1131]

I wonder if this is the normal ? I can only do half way....😢

[@jpquinones]

hello, can you use this with oXygen?

[@roshanpathan7138]

Will it increase CO2 tolerance?

[@nayanmipun6784]

In India 3 balls with different capacity spirometer is used

[@debbieferguson7906]

What if you smoke?

[@grishmabudhathoki2839]

For how long this procedure should be done every time?

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

It should be performed 10 times every 1 to 2 hours while awake.

[@clarissamercer2790]

my professor said so encourage patients to use it at every commercial break (if they're watching tv that is)-- i think this is super helpful tip for them to remember and keep them on tract:) good lucj

[@iowa_don]

OR in a case of pulmonary embolism/infarction. That is what happened to me. 😖😖

[@russwelday]

This thing is murder. How do they expect a 70 year old man to match a 20 year old ? Madness.

[@umadevibalasingam314]

Thank you very much was very useful
