Oxygen therapy administration is a fundamental aspect of nursing care aimed at providing supplemental oxygen to patients experiencing respiratory distress or inadequate oxygenation. As an essential component in managing various health conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, or acute respiratory failure, nurses play a pivotal role in assessing, implementing, and monitoring the delivery of oxygen therapy. In all health care settings, assessing patient health is a deliberate and ongoing effort. The importance of routine health assessment has increased along with the emphasis on prevention. The choice of therapies the client receives and the assessment of how well those therapies work depend on how accurately the nurse's assessment. When the nurse conducts ongoing goals and thorough assessments, the continuity of the patient's medical care improves. Palpation is an assessment technique in which the examiner feels with his/her fingers and one or both hands. Skill and gentleness are important. It reveals any swelling, coldness, hotness, stiffness, hardness, smoothness, roughness, pain, vibration, firmness and flaccidity. The following points are to be kept in mind while doing palpation:
