Midterm Exam Review Questions with Answers and
Rationales | 100% Pass | Graded A+ |
what is the TI of lithium? - Answer>> 0.6-1.5
valproic acid - Answer>> class: mood stabilizer
acute/chronic mania, PTSD
blocks GABA reuptake; increases GABA
better choice
BP = - Answer>> CO X PR
CO = - Answer>> SV x HR
SV is determined by _____________? - Answer>> Venous
return (preload) and contractility (inotropism)
Venous return is determined by _____________? - Answer>>
Blood volume
PR is determined by ____________? - Answer>> Arterioles
(afterload)
Angiotensin comes from the __________ - Answer>> Liver
Juxtaglomerular cells come from the _______ - Answer>>
Kidneys
Enalipril - Answer>> Class: Angiotensin Converting Enzyme
Inhibitor
MOA: Decreases production of both ATII and aldosterone;
lowers vascular resistance without decreasing CO or GFR;
,improves oxygenation to the heart muscle by decreasing
inappropriate remodeling of the heart muscle after a MI or HF,
increases MOS, decreases MOD
AA and Asians have a 3-4 times greater risk of developing
____________? - Answer>> Angioedema
Why does ACEI have an increased risk for dry cough? -
Answer>> There is a positive correlation between bradykinin-
mediated responses.
Losartan - Answer>> Class: Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker
MOA: Blocks ATII, inhibits the RAAS, decreases PR
What antihypertensive drug has an extensive first pass
metabolism resulting in a bioavailabity of 33%? - Answer>>
ARB
Diltiazem - Answer>> Class: Calcium Channel Blocker; Type
1
MOA: Affects the conduction through the AV node, has
negative chronotropic effects, used to treat SVT; vasodilator,
lowers calcium influx into smooth muscles.
Verapamil - Answer>> Class: Calcium Channel Blocker; Type
1
MOA: Affects the conduction through the AV node, has
negative chronotropic effects, used to treat SVT; vasodilator,
lowers calcium influx into smooth muscles.
Nifedipine - Answer>> Class: Calcium Channel Blocker; Type
2
MOA: Does NOT affects the conduction through the AV node;
vasodilator, lowers calcium influx into smooth muscles.
Amlodipine - Answer>> Class: Calcium Channel Blocker;
Type 2
, MOA: Does NOT affects the conduction through the AV node;
vasodilator, lowers calcium influx into smooth muscles.
Which antihypertensive drug (generic name) have the strongest
negative inotropic effect and should be avoided in patients with
CHF? - Answer>> Verapamil
T or F: Using CCB with ACEI in combination decreases
peripheral edema by 50% versus those on CCB high dose alone.
- Answer>> True
You should educate your patients to strongly avoid _____ with
CCBs? - Answer>> NSAIDs, alcohol, Jacuzzis.
Digoxin - Answer>> Class: Cardiac Glycoside
MOA: Results in sodium and calcium buildup inside the cell,
which leads to increased contractility of heart muscle
Which antihypertensive is most beneficial for patients with
severe CHF? - Answer>> Digoxin
What are the signs and symptoms of Digoxin toxicity? -
Answer>> Hallucinations, visual disturbances: yellow vision,
green halos around lights, atrial arrhythmias, tachycardia.
Digoxin toxicity commonly occurs with serum levels greater
than ______? - Answer>> 2
It's important to monitor _____ with digoxin. - Answer>>
Potassium, HR, signs of toxicity
Absolute refractory period is ________ - Answer>> Regardless
of the strength of a stimulus, the cell cannot be depolarized.
Relative refractory period is ___________ - Answer>> Stronger
than normal stimulus can induce depolarization.
