107 Multiple choice questions
Term 1 of 107
what does a pericardial friction rub sound like?
it is a myocardial cell injury test, high cells mean pt most likely had a heart attack
this peptide causes excretion of sodium in the urine and is usually high when a pt has heart
failure
loudest at the apex of the heart and is a high-pitched scratching noise
monitor for gradual onset of s/s like increased fatigue and SOB
Term 2 of 107
when should a pt call 911 when they are taking nitro?
normal on inspiration but abnormal on expiration, heard over the pulmonic area
check it on both arms and check their orthostatic b/p
Tall R peaks (meaning big ventricular size)
after the first dose if pain doesn't subside after 5 mins
Term 3 of 107
what diagnostic tests do we do for HTN?
atropine (HR high like on top of a PINE tree)
fasting glucose, b/p, urinalysis, BMP, CBC and GFR
Tall R peaks (meaning big ventricular size)
atherosclerosis, aneurysms, broken kidneys and heart, clots
,Term 4 of 107
chronic angina is caused from what?
leg cramps and they should notify the HCP
depleted oxygen in the heart from blockages in the coronary artery.
Essential or idiopathic, elevated BP without an identified cause, most common HTN
measured in percentages, it is how much blood the left ventricle pumps out with each
contraction
Term 5 of 107
what does asystole look like?
flat line - assist fully
tomb stone pattern
"late potentials"
whooshing/ swishing noise
,Term 6 of 107
what does ventricular tachycardia look like? (Vtach)
tomb stone pattern
the "dub" is the closure of the aortic and pulmonic valves, beginning of
diastole
fib=floppy
"late potentials"
Term 7 of 107
what are the complications of HTN? think AABC
loudest at the apex of the heart and is a high-pitched scratching noise
increased risk for atherosclerosis, MIs, and CVAs
fasting glucose, b/p, urinalysis, BMP, CBC and GFR
atherosclerosis, aneurysms, broken kidneys and heart, clots
, Term 8 of 107
what does a regular rhythm look like?
saw tooth
the "dub" is the closure of the aortic and pulmonic valves, beginning of
diastole
flat line - assist fully
Term 9 of 107
what is S3 and when is it heard?
force opposing the movement of blood within vessels
leg cramps and they should notify the HCP
not normal and is heard in left heart failure along with mitral regurgitation (lub dub dub)
anything pulmonary related like dyspnea, crackles and wheezes in the lungs
