ACTUAL EXAM WITH COMPLETE QUESTIONS AND
VERIFIED ANSWERS |ALREADY GRADED A+|
hemorrhagic shock -ANSWERS--total blood loss
non-hemorrhagic shock -ANSWERS--shift of fluids out of the
intravascular space
distributive shock -ANSWERS--causes vasodilation and
permeability
-septic, neurogenic, and anaphylactic
cardiogenic shock -ANSWERS--ineffective pump function
-MI, CHF, depressed pump function, abnormal rhythm
obstructive shock -ANSWERS--obstructs forward blood flow
-tension pneumothorax, pulmonary embolism, pericardial
tamponade
, Page |2
how to pediatrics compensate for cardiovascular compromise? -
ANSWERS--increase heart rate and vasoconstriction, can't
increase contractility like adults do
signs of pediatric cardiac arrest -ANSWERS--falling spO2 despite
oxygenation
nitroglycerin -ANSWERS--nitrate drug used in the treatment of
angina
-must have systolic >90, no ED drugs
fibrinolytic agents -ANSWERS--help break up the clot
geriatric considerations with cardiac issues -ANSWERS--
diabetes: won't feel typical MI pain
-can progress quickly to cardiac arrest
-exacerbated COPD can cause collapsed lung which causes
cardiac arrest
, Page |3
effects of aging on the heart -ANSWERS-Gradual changes in
heart function, minor under resting condition, more significant
during exercise
Hypertrophy of left ventricle
Maximum heart rate decreases
Increased tendency for valves to function abnormally and
arrhythmias to occur
Increased oxygen consumption required to pump same amount of
blood
-increase in cardiovascular disease
uses, indications, contraindications of aspirin -ANSWERS--used
for patient with chest discomfort or pain
-dont give if allergy
indications and contraindications of nitroglycerin -ANSWERS--
give if chest pain of cardiac origin
-dont give is systolic is <90mmHg, no ED meds, allergy, early MI
sections of EKG -ANSWERS-1.p wave: depolarization of atria
, Page |4
2. QRS complex: depolarization of ventricles
3. T wave: repolarization of ventricles
scene size up -ANSWERS-1.PPE
2. determine if scene is safe
3. consider need for additional resources
4. protect yourself and those around you
5. control the scene
6. maintain awareness
7. MOI/NOI
8.number of patients
treatment for open chest wound -ANSWERS--occulsive dressing
when to perform modified secondary assessment -ANSWERS--no
significant MOI, alert and aware, and no critical findings during the
primary assessment
revised trauma score -ANSWERS--respiratory rate
