BSNC 1000 - module 4-6(Latest Exam
2024)
Define perfusion - correct answers✅blood flow and
oxygen delivery to body tissues
Perfusion is influenced by - correct answers✅-volume of
blood pumped from the heart
-radius of blood vessels
-viscosity of blood
-velocity of flow
-blood pressure
impaired perfusion is exemplified by: - correct
answers✅-hypertension
-myocardial infarction
-heart failure
-shock
how do you measure pulse pressure? - correct
answers✅systolic pressure - diastolic pressure
,BSNC 1000 - module 4-6(Latest Exam
2024)
how do you measure BP? - correct answers✅CO x
peripheral vascular resistance
how do you measure CO? - correct answers✅stroke
volume x HR
how do you measure MAP? - correct answers✅CO x TPR
what major factors influence peripheral resistance -
correct answers✅-vessel radius ***
-blood viscosity - resistance to flow (higher viscosity,
higher resistance)
what is a sign? - correct answers✅manifestation noted
by observer
ie/ temperature, swelling
what is a symptom? - correct answers✅subjective,
perceived by client
ie/ pain, difficulty breathing, dizziness
what is an acute disorder? - correct answers✅severe,
but self limiting
, BSNC 1000 - module 4-6(Latest Exam

what is a chronic disease? - correct answers✅long
term, continuous or exacerbations/remission
what is subacute disease? - correct answers✅between
acute and chronic
what defines hypertension? - correct answers✅-systolic
BP > 140 mm/Hg
-diastolic BP > 90 mm/Hg
-imbalance between CO or TPR
what is primary hypertension? - correct answers✅cause
is unknown but may be caused by:
-poor kidney function (fewer glomeruli where waste
products)
-high dietary Na+
-lack of exercise
-smoking
-obesity
