NSG 430 EXAM 2 2026 REAL
QUESTIONS WITH EXPERTLY
VERIFIED ANSWERS.
1. What are premature ventricular contractions - correct answer -
premature occurrence of a QRS complex that is wide and
distorted; looks like an extra QRS that does not belong
2. Risk factors with PVCs - correct answer -Stimulants, electrolyte
imbalances (hypokalemia), hypoxia, exercise, fever, emotional
stress
3. Management of PVCs - correct answer -Dont really treat unless
symptomatic; correct the cause (electrolyte imbalance, oxygen
for hypoxia); assess hemodynamics status is important if you
need drug therapy
4. Drug for PVCs - correct answer -Amiodarone

5. What is ventricular tachycardia? - correct answer -Run of three
or more PVCs with ventricular rate at 150-250 bpm
6. Treatment of v-tach with pulse - correct answer -Amiodarone or
cardio version if more unstable
7. Treatment of v-tach with no pulse - correct answer -same
manner as v-fib with CPR and rapid defibrillation
8. Treatment of ventricular fibrillation - correct answer -Immediate
CPR and ACLS: defibrillation and drug therapy (epinephrine,
vasopressin)
9. What does a patient look like in v fin - correct answer -
Unresponsive, pulses, and apenic
10. When do we use defibrillation? - correct answer -Fib and
pulseless tach
