Q

Definition of afib

A

Cardiac arrhythmia, characterized by loss of coordination of electrical mechanical activity in the atria

Thrombi conform in the left atrial appendage due to impaired ventricular filling in complete emptying of the atria

Major complications of a fit include stroke, heart failure, dementia, death

Q

SALTE for afib

A

Stabilize(monitor heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory status of medication)

Assess (fluid and electrolyte status, medication management respect, identification, and modification)

Label/treat (arrhythmia management, reducing anxiety, anticoagulation management

Educate (disease process, anticoagulation, teaching prescribe medication’s

Q

Define plasminogen

A

Thrombi constantly being formed and dissolved

Plasminogen and inactive proteins present in many body, tissues, and fluids. It is bound to fibrin, and becomes a component of the clot.

Plasminogen produces plasmin –> dissolves clot

Q

Define ischemic stroke

A

Stroke is characterized by sudden or progressive onset of focal neurologic signs due to inadequate blood supply to the brain

Common presenting, stroke symptoms is tingling, numbness and weakness or paralysis on one side of body in coordination aphasia changes in mental status or loss of consciousness and visual disturbances also can occur

Most off of the differences are confined to one side of the body

Q

Symptoms of valvular, heart disease

A

Symptoms vary, depending on the valve that has affected

DYSPNEA is a Hallmark symptom of Michael stenosis

Dyspnea, angina, syncope in heart failure are symptoms of aortic stenosis

Mitral regurg also progressing slowly, may be asymptomatic

Each valvular disorders associated with a characteristic murmur

Q

Native and prosthetic, valvular heart disease

A

Caused by degenerative valve disease due to including increasing lifespans in rheumatic heart disease

High risk for embolism antithrombotic therapy, antiplatelet therapy and anticoagulation, or a combination is warranted the most patients

Two types of heart valves, mechanical anf bioprosthetic

17
Q

Number one goal of drug therapy

A

Providing development of a stroke. Primary goal of therapy in patients with a fib, prosthetic heart valves, and those were the history of cardioembolic stroke

Anti-cocoag treatment and patience with existing DVT/PE is to prevent extension of the thrombus, thrombolytic complications, including post thrombolytics syndrome, and development of new thrombus

18
Q

Goals of drug therapy number 2

A

Anticoagulation prophylaxis, after orthopedic surgeries, initiated with aspirin, or anticoagulation, to decrease the risk of DVT or PE

The goals of antiplatelet therapy are to prevent and treat ischemic strokes from non-cardioEMBOLIC sources

19
Q

Types of anticoagulants

A

Injectable agents heparin Lovenox

Oral vitamin K antagonist warfarin Coumadin

Direct acting oral anticoagulants dabigatran etexilate

Oral factor XA inhibitors apixaban rivaroxaban Eliquis and Xarelto

20
Q

Antiplatelet medication

A

Clopidogrel plavix and ASA

21
Q

Anticoagulant, injectables, and what they do

A

Heparin-inhibits conversion of prothrombin to thrombin and prevents thrombus formation

Low molecular weight heparin - regular heparin is processed into smaller molecules. Inactivates factor XA Lovenox.Fragmin

Fondaparinux arixta - selective inhibitor of antithrombin three and factor XA
