A+
⩥ Patho of respiration. Answer: Gas exchange occurs in alveoli through
diffusion. Ventilation requires: Pt airway, functioning diaphragm, intact
cus drive, & adequate alveolar surface.
⩥ Failure of ventilation. Answer: Leads to hypoxia, hypercapnia, &
respiratory acidosis.
⩥ Pharmacologic agents for bronchial constriction. Answer: Albuterol
(beta-2 agonist) - Smooth muscle relaxation, Epinephrine 1:1,000 IM -
Severe anaphylaxis or bronchospasm.
⩥ Signs and Symptoms of COPD. Answer: Chronic cough & sputum,
wheezing, diminished breath sounds, barrel chest, pursed-lip breathing,
hypoxia, air trapping.
⩥ Signs and Symptoms of respiratory distress. Answer: Tripod position,
tachypnea, accessory muscle use, retractions, cyanosis, inability to speak
full sentences, altered mental status.
, ⩥ Signs and Symptoms of spontaneous pneumothorax. Answer: Sudden
sharp unilateral chest pain, decreased breath sounds on one side,
tachypnea, dyspnea, subcutaneous emphysema.
⩥ Techniques for securing patient airway. Answer: Head tilt chin lift,
jaw-thrust, suctioning, OPA/NPA, BVM ventilation, supraglottic airway,
left lateral position.
⩥ Treatment for a patient with emphysema. Answer: Oxygen, albuterol
via nebulizer, BVM.
⩥ Treatment of foreign body airway obstruction (FBAO). Answer:
Conscious - Abd. thrusts; unconscious - Start CPR -> check airway,
begin ventilation.
⩥ Treatment of reactive airway disease. Answer: Albuterol, epinephrine,
oxygen.
⩥ Anatomy & Physiology of Cardiovascular system. Answer: Heart
pumps oxygenated blood/deoxygenated blood via 4 chambers.
⩥ Electrical conduction of the heart. Answer: SA -> AV -> Bundle of
His -> Bundle branches -> Purkinje fibers.
