Question 10

Action of calcium channel blocker

Answer 10

Decreases excitability of condition in av node and blood pressure to decrease workload of heart

Question 11

Action of a diuretic

Answer 11

Increases urine formation to increase removal of water and sodium

Question 12

Action of a loop diuretic

Answer 12

Produces potent diuresis and fluid loss by blocking sodium absorption in loop of henle and also activating kidney prostaglandins for vasodilation

Question 13

Action of potassium sparring diuretics

Answer 13

Weakest diuretic that blocks aldosterone in the collecting ducts

Blocks sodium and water so they can be excreted

Question 14

Action of thiazides diuretics

Answer 14

Acts in distal convoluted tubule to real arterioles and inhibit reabsorption of sodium, potassium and chloride to decrease preload and after load

Question 15

Uses for cardiac glycosides

Answer 15

Heart failure
Dysrythmias
Promoting diuresis

Question 16

Action of cardiac glycosides

Answer 16

Increases contractility by increase sodium and calcium

Increases diastolic filling to reduce heart rate and increase cardia efficiency

Decreases rate of conduction at sa and av nodes

Question 17

Indication for beta blockers

Answer 17

Hypertension and glaucoma

Question 18

Actions of beta blockers

Answer 18

Blocks b receptors to reduce heart rate

Reduce secretion of renin to decrease aldosterone and reduce vasoconstriction

Question 19

Use of ace inhibitors

Answer 19

Hypertension
Heart failure
Protective effect on kidneys
Cardio protective effect

Question 20

Define remodelling

Answer 20

Permanent ventricular myocardial wall damage from hyperactive renin angiotensin aldosterone system

Question 21

Action of ace inhibitors

Answer 21

Inhibits angiotensin converting enzyme from converting angiotensin 1 into angiotensin 2 and prevents breakdown of bradykinin and substance p (vasodialators)

Question 22

Responsibility of angiotensin 2

Answer 22

Responsible for

• vasoconstriction
• inducing aldosterone secretion

Question 23

Use of anticoagulants

Answer 23

Prevent formation of clot by inhibiting clotting factors

Have no direct effects on clots already formed

Question 24

Action of angiotensin 2 receptor blockers

Answer 24

Prevents vasoconstricting, aldosterone secreting effects of angiotensin 2 by preventing binding

Question 25

Two therapeutic outcomes of regular anticoagulant therapy

Answer 25

• Prevention of clot formation

- No heart attacks, stokes or thrombosis signs and symptoms
