Exam 2 Tutoring Notes Flashcards
alpha
vasoconstriction of peripheral arterioles
beta 1
increased heart rate, conduction and contractility
beta 2
vasodilation of peripheral arteries and brohcnodilation
dopaminergic
dilation of renal and mesenteric arteries
class 1
blocks sodium channels
class 1A
may prolong QT and cause arrhythmia
class 2
blocks beta adrenergic receptor
class 3
slows repolarization and increase duration of action potential
class 4
blocks calcium channels
preload
volume in ventricles at end of diastole
preload
- decrease in
hemorrhagic shock
preload
- increase
fluid bolus
afterload
pressure in the ventricle has to generate to overcome resistance
afterload
- decreased
septic shock
nipride
nitro
lasix
morphine
acei
afterload
- increase
vasopressor (levophed)
will ACEI have reflex tachycardia
NO
what will ACEI delay/inhibit
ventricular remodeling
reflect tachycardia
due to a lowered BP, body tries to compensate by increasing heart rate
contractility
- increased in
dobutamine (vasopressor, beta 1)
fluid bolus
contractility
- decreased in
acidosis
beta blockers
stroke volume
preload + contractility + afterload
end diastolic volume
how much blood is in the ventricles before contraction
LVEF
left ventricular ejection fraction
ratio of stroke volume to end diastolic volume
normal EF
over 55%
reduced/systolic
- EF
under 40%
reduced/systolic
- treatment
hydralazine (lower BP)
nitrates (vasodilation)
- both reduce afterload
persevered/diastolic EF
over 40%
left sided
pulomonary symptoms such as cough, crackles, shortness of breath
right sided HF
peripheral symptoms such as edema, JVD, weight gain
MAP formula
(DBP x2) + SBP

verapamil
atenolol
clondaine
positive chronotropic medications
epinephrine
atropine
dopamine

pulmonary edema
too much fluid in the lungs
causes of pulmonary edema
heronin overdose
head injury
anterior wall MI
cardiomyopathy
pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, central venous pressure pulmonary edema
25mgHg
treatment of pulmonary edema
lasix
morphine
CPAP
What rhythms are epinephrine used in?
V-Fib, PEA and asystole
- pulsless Vtach
adenosine used in what rhythm
PSVT
adenosine works
slows condition through AV node
