cardiac assessment Flashcards
during cardiac assessment what symptoms we can see?
- Angina
- Shortness of breath
- Palpitations
- Dizziness
- Paleness
- Fatigue
angina can be felt in which body parts?
Chest pain
Breast, neck, chin, felt
repressive & blunt
discomfort
angina might be indication of?
Myocardial ischemia
Coronary artery disease
level one of angina is?
Pain and discomfort in the chest were felt for the first time.
No need to stop the activity.
level 2 of angina is, Discomfort is increasing, spreading. Tolerable. Slows down patient activity to reduce angina level.
true or false?
true
which level of angina, the patient starts taking nitroglycerin?
level three
very severe pain is level three
true or false?
false, level 4
Patients who do not feel chest pain might have?
DM
which scale can we use for dyspnea?
Borg scale
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
palpitations of the heart can have sometimes?
arrythmia beatings
Number of boxes between heart rate is?
1500/2 R
double product shows?
the heart oxygen consumption
for blood pressure
Systolic <130 mmHg
Diastolic <80 mmHg
true or false?
true
for lipid profile
LDL should be less than?
HDL should be more than?
TG should be less than?
LDL <100 mg/dL
HDL >40 mg/dL
TG <150 mg/dL
for normal HbA1C is less than 8
trure or false?
false, <7
Fasting Blood Glucose is between?
80-100 mg/dL
Physical activity as
1. Moderate (3-5 MET)
2. Severe (more or equal to 6MET)
true or false?
true
cardiac physical assessment contain?
inspection
auscultation
Palpation
- General view
- Peripheral extremities
- Pale
- Cyanosis
- Abnormal respiratory pattern
are related to?
inspection
for auscultation s1 is?
Closure of mitral &
tricuspid valves
* 5. Intercostal space
Closure of aortic &
pulmonary valves
* 2. Intercostal space
is?
s2 of auscultation
S1 and S2 are abnormal heart sounds
true or false?
false, are normal
Weak ventricular
compliance & turbulence
* Heard in early diastole
* Heart failure
* Insufficiency in cardiac
pumping
are related to which abnormal sound?
s3
s4 for abnormal sound of heart is described as?
- More than normal atrial
contraction & turbulence - Delayed in late diastole
- Myocardial infarction
- Hypertension
what laboratory tests are done for cardiac assessment?
1.Serum Enzymes
2.ECG
3. Angiography
4. Echocardiography
5. Holter monitoring
with Echocardiography we can see?
. Size of ventricular space
* Thickness & integrity of
interatrial & intraventricular
septum
* Functions of covers
* Movement of ventricular
walls
in ECG waves
P, ORS, and T
stand for??
- P: Atrial depolarization
- QRS: ventricular depolarization
- T: Ventricular repolarization
- P-waves have their own rhythm .
- No connection between atrial and ventricular
depolarization.
is which degree of heat block?
Complete block
two P waves for each QRS wave
is which degree of heart block?
Mobitz
too much p waves is?
Atrial fibrillation
The cardiac muscle is randomly contracted. No cardiac output is known as ventricular fibrillation
true or false?
true
ST depression is ?
Myocardial ischemia
- ST elevation is?
myocardial infraction
- Cardiac catheterization is?
Angiography
