Cardiopulmonary Part Twelve Flashcards
ST segment represents
the beginning of ventricular repolarization
EKG appearance of ventricular tachycardia
wide QRS
no P waves
what does the patient look like with MI
restless
pale
diaphoretic
cool
what is cold uritcaria
allergic-like response producing hives or welts on the skin following exposure to cold
how does lung pathology contribute to cor pulmonale
produces pulmonary artery HTN that creates a problem fo the right ventricle
is Raynaud’s a contraindication to cryotherapy
yes
on the GCS, a patient who extends their arm in response to pain would be given a score of
2
a weak and thready pulse may be due to
low stroke volume
normal HR average
70 bpm
the motor subscale of the GCS is graded ranged from __-___
1-6
T wave represents
ventricular repolarization
a lowboy tank (whirlpool) is used for
immersion of larger body parts in sitting
can extend LEs in sitting
what does heart failure do to preload
increased end diastolic pressures (preload)
on the GCS, a patient who opens their eyes in response to speech would be given a score of
3
what can chest x-ray reveal
abnormalities of lung fluid
overall cardiac shape and size
aneurysms
S2 indicates
S2:
normal closure of aortic and pulmonary valves
end of systole
drugs for heart failure
digitalis
diuretics
on the GCS, a patient who can localize the source of pain and move their hand toward it would be given a score of
5
a walk tank (whirlpool) is used for
full body immersion with the patient in an upright posture
what can cryoglobulinemia lead to
ischemia and gangerne if prolonged exposure
is cancer a contraindication to cryotherapy
no
what do diuretics do
decrease preload and afterload
control HTN
for angina, what sided ventricular function can be affected
left
S4 indicates
MI
chronic HTN
heart failure does what to HR
tachycardia
a Hubbard tank (whirlpool) is used for…
full-body immersion
on the GCS, a patient who withdraws their arm away from the source of pain would receive a score of
4
S3 indicates
congestive heart failure
P wave represents
atrial depolarization
what does bruit indicate
atherosclerosis
what serum lipids will be affected with CAD
elevated total cholesterol
LDL
QRS wave represents
ventricular depolarization
inverted T wave indicates
ischemia
a highboy tank (whirlpool) is used for
immersion of larger body parts (depth of immersion to mid-thoracic region)
can’t extend LEs in this one
example of diuretics
Lasix
S1 indicates…
when is it heard….
S1:
normal closure of mitral and tricuspid valves
beginning of systole
what can ST elevation indicate
new infarct
pericarditis
on the GCS, a patient who makes incomprehensible sounds would be given a score of
2
what is cor pulmonale
failure or hypertrophy of the right ventricle resulting from disorders of the lungs, pulmonary vessels, or chest walls
what is ventricular tachycardia
a run of three or more PVCs occurring sequentially
what is a bruit
abnormal sound of murmur of arterial or venous origin
what is cryoglobulinemia
abnormal blood protein transforms to gel when exposed to cold temperatures
