is the minimum pressure of the blood against the walls
of the vessels following closure of aortic valve (ventricular relaxation)

37

BP …..?

A

120/80

120 ( systolic)
80 ( dystolic)

38

4- Medications
5- Diseases

39
Q

BP
Hypertension/ Hypotention

A

Hyper > 145/95 mmHg
Hypo < 90/60 mmHg

40
Q

BP> 5 what we call it

A

Postural hypertention

41
Q

Vital sign
Oxygen Saturation

A

Quick, continuous, non-invasive , safe,
Normal : 96-100% adult

42
Q

Pulse Oximeters can be attached to?

A

your fingers, forehead, nose, foot, ears or toes

43
Q

if your oxygen saturation reads 92% on the pulse oximeter, it may be actually anywhere

A

From 90 to 94%

لا حسبتها اعلى من ٢٪؜ او اقل من ٢٪؜ نزيد وننقص

44
Q

Inaccurate Readings for Oxygen pulse

A

.O2 <70% or <80%
• Poor circulation
• Motion artifact
• Very dark skin
• Hypothermia
• Nail polish/artificial nails
• Abnormal hemoglobin: e.g. carboxyhemoglobin

45
Q

Ausculation

46
Q

INSPECTION

A

General Appearance
Facial Expression
Neck
Chest
Phonation
Cough-sputum
Extremities

47
Q

General Appearance

A

Observation ( it should be done in asystematic manner ( head—> extremities))

48
Q

Observation

A

1- Level of consciousness( Alert/ orientd/ confused/ comatos
2- Body Type (Obese, normal, cachectic)
3-Body posture/positioning(Kyphosis, scoliosis, leaning forward, semi-fowler)

5-Equipment(All equipment / appropriate use)

49
Q

Fascial Expression

A

Nasal Flaring
Sweating
Paleness
Pursed-lip Breathing—–> Indication of chronic obstructive lung disease (air trapping)

50
Q

Neck

A

Muscles: Hypertrophy/shortening of sternocleidomastoid
Veins: JVD
Clavicle: Shortening of the SCM and more prominent clavicles could be due to leaning forward posture of
the head and trunk
