DAANCE Exam Study Questions with 100% Verifeid
Solutions
What is a major advantage for using Propofol (Diprivan) over Methohexital
(Brevital)
lower incidence of nausea and shorter duration
What is the advantage of using a local anesthetic alone?
The patient doesn''t have to be NPO, Driver is not necessary In the
United States, the standard color for nitrous oxide blue
Blood pressure levels will most likely be falsely LOW when an adult
arm cuff on a small child
A montioring device that give information about both circulation of blood
and ventilation is pulse oximeter
Ventilation can be monitored continuously by
use of a automated sphygmomanometer (BP cuff), auscultation in the
precorial of retracheal region (stethoscopes), observation of the rebreathing
bag
A rocking or "see-sawing" rhythm of the chest and abdomen may
indicate airway obstruction
An increased heart rate may be caused by
painful stimuli
Capnography measures the
leval of carbon dioxide expired in each breath
Syncope is the result of decreased cerebral blood
flow
Cricothyroidotomy is the emergency procedure used to establish an airway
obstruction when a patient experiences upper airway obstruction that
, prevents ventilation Angina pectoris is most likely to be caused by heart
disease
The most important reason an intravenous line should be estalished when a
myocardial infarcation is suspected medications to be administered Which
arrhythmia is most dangerous?
ventricular fibrillation
The drug of choice for management of grand mal seizures is IV
administration of
DIazepam(Valium)
Ketamine relaxes bronchial smooth muscle, which makes Ketamine useful in
what type of patient?
Asthmatic
A cardiac dysrhythmia in which there is rapid firing of ectopic focus in the
ventricles , wide QRS complex, with no P wave (with rate of 140-200 bpm)
Ventricular tachycardia
The awakening or return of conscipusness of a patient following anesthesia
Emergences
What is the "supine" postion?
Pt laying face up
What is the "fowlers" position? pt is sitting straight
up or leaning slightly back What is the
"trendelenberg" position? pt's head is slightly lower
than their feet
What are the vessels that lead away from the heart
Arteries
What vessels lead to the heart?
Veins
