The brain’s in trouble when you see this combo.
📉 HR goes down
📈 Systolic BP goes up
📉 RR gets irregular
That’s Cushing’s Triad — a late sign of increased ICP, and it means herniation risk is near.
🚨 What do you do?
Raise HOB
Call the HCP
Reduce stimuli
Prep for neuro interventions (mannitol, intubation)
Don’t wait. This is your red flag on NCLEX and in real life.

Chest tube charting can feel like just another number—until it’s not.
Here’s what’s NOT normal and needs a call to the provider:
🚨 Bright red drainage >100 mL/hr → Possible bleed
🚨 Continuous bubbling in the water seal → Air leak
🚨 No drainage at all → May be clotted or disconnected
🚨 SOB + tracheal shift? → Think tension pneumothorax
💡 Save this list. One of these will definitely show up on your NCLEX exam or clinical shift.
