10. Cardiac tamponade Occurs when blood leaks into the
space between the pericardium and
the pericardial sac
11. Signs and symptoms of cardiac tamponade: Beck triad: the presence of jugular vein
distention, muffled heart sounds, and
a narrowing pulse pressure where the
systolic and diastolic blood pressures
start to merge.
12. Signs of cardiogenic shock: -Skin may be cool, clammy, and ashen
-High BP
-Rapid, shallow breathing
-Weak, irregular pulse
-Anxiety, nausea
13. You arrive on scene to find a conscious 58YOF Cardiogenic shock
sitting up and reporting severe chest pain and
SOB. She is anxious and "feels like she's go-
ing to die." Her skin is pale, cool, and clam-
my and her pulse is rapid, weak, and irregu-
lar. Her breathing is labored, with a RR of 28
breaths/min. Her SpO2 is 90%. Lung sounds
show crackles in all fields, and BP is 92/60
mmHg. What is your differential diagnosis of
the patient?
14. The heart is divided down the middle into left Septum
and right sides by the:
15. Which chamber of the heart receives incom- Atrium
ing unoxygenated blood?

16. Which chamber of the heart pumps oxygenat- Ventricles
ed blood?
17. Normal electrical impulses begin in the: Sinoatrial (SA) node
18. What characteristic allows a cardiac muscle Automaticity
cells to contract spontaneously without an ex-
ternal stimulus?
19. The sympathetic nervous system acts on the -increasing HR and RR
body by: -constricting blood vessels in the mus-
cles
20. The parasympathetic nervous system acts on (directly opposes the sympathetic
the body by: NS)
-decreases HR and RR
-constricts blood vessels in muscles
21. Increased oxygen demand in a normal heart Dilation
is supplied by of the coronary arteries.
22. The heart itself is supplied by blood through Coronary vessels
what vessels?
23. The iliac arteries descend into the: femoral arteries
24. Which veins bring blood back to the right atri- Venae cavae
um?
25. Systolic pressure is the: maximum pressure generated in the
arteries during contraction of the left
ventricle
26. Pulses felt in the extremities are called: Peripheral pulses
