Using the guidelines in Wilson & Giddens ’ Ch. 11 and videos‚ perform a respiratory assessment process on a patient or a significant other. Write up your findings following the guidelines and post them here. It is important for nurses in all practice settings to be able to perform a basic respiratory assessment. This includes taking a pertinent patient history and using the techniques of inspection‚ palpation‚ percussion‚ and auscultation. Immediately upon meeting a patient I am looking to

1. Triple DES Triple DES was designed to replace the original Data Encryption Standard (DES) algorithm‚ which hackers eventually learned to defeat with relative ease. At one time‚ Triple DES was the recommended standard and the most widely used symmetric algorithm in the industry. Triple DES uses three individual keys with 56 bits each. The total key length adds up to 168 bits‚ but experts would argue that 112-bits in key strength is more like it. Despite slowly being phased out‚ Triple DES still

Respiratory System: Study Guide The respiratory system provides for exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide of the body. - In terrestrial vertebrae’s‚ the respiratory system includes 3 steps: 1. Breathing: Inspiration (inhaling oxygen) and Expiration (exhaling carbon dioxide) 2. External exchange- Gas exchange between the AIR and BLOOD in lungs. Blood then transfers oxygen to the tissue cells. 3. Internal exchange- Gas exchange between the BLOOD & TISSUE FLUID and between the CELLS & TISSUE FLUID
