Question

Vagal stimulation during suctioning can contribute to which conditions? select all that apply.

Answer 1

Answer;

-Bradycardia

-Heart block

-Asystole

Explanation;

-Tracheal suctioning can cause a vagal response. This stimulus influences the electrical system of the heart, potentially leading to decreased heart rate (bradycardia), heart block, asystole, or other dysrhythmias.

-Bronchospasm would not be induced by this type of stimulus. Vagal stimulation can result in hypotension, not hypertension.
