31
Q

Cultures - TB - you need to get what before entering the room

A

fit mask!

they need 9 FULL months of medication

32
Q

Cultures - TB - usually located where

A

lower lobes - unless has reoccurred then will be in different place (upper lobe)

33
Q

Coagulation studies - PT

A

11-12.5 sec

over 36 is critical

34
Q

Coagulation studies - what is PT looking at

A

how long it takes the blood to clot

35
Q

Coagulation studies - PTT

A

30-40 sec

critical is over 100

36
Q

Coagulation studies - fibrinogen

A

150-400 mg/dl

Less than 100 is critical

37
Q

Coagulation studies - fibrinogen - is what

A

the ability to clot

38
Q

Coagulation studies - INR (international normalization ratio)

A
  1. 9 - 1.1

2. 5 to 3.5 for prosthetic heart valves (they are already on anticoagulants)

39
Q

Coagulation studies - INR - when are we not working with them

A

5 - you are absolutely not working with them
We can work with people up into 3 range even if they dont have the prosthetic valve, 4 you need to be cautious and consider the whole picture

40
Q

Electrolyte studies - Na

A

136-145 mEq/l

41
Q

If high Na - how will they present

A

swelling, HR inc, might be confused

42
Q

Electrolyte studies - K

A

3.5 - 5 Meq/l

43
Q

If high K how will they present

A

inc in dysrhythmias, they wont tolerate long bouts of treatment (could be high or low K)

44
Q

Electrolyte studies - BUN

A

10-20 mg/dl

45
Q

BUN tells you

A

how well their kidneys are working or ig they are in kidney failure

46
Q

Electrolyte studies - creatinine

A

0.6 - 1.2 mg/dl

47
Q

Creatinine - what is it telling you

A

breakdown of proteins

48
Q

Electrolyte studies - glucose

A

70-110 mg/dl

49
Q

Glucose - what if it is too low - how will patient present

A

Confused, fatigued

50
Q

Glucose - what if it is too high - how will patient present

A

fatigued and confused - maybe HA

51
Q

Electrolyte studies - Albumin

A

more than 2.5 g

52
Q

Albumin is telling you

A

it is a protein and is giving you info about the hydration status of the patient
Dehydrated = low albumin

53
Q

Electrolyte studies - prealbumin

A

18-32 mg/l

54
Q

Prealbumin - what is it

A

not impacted by hydration

is another protein factor

55
Q

electrolyte studies - HgA1C

A

4.8 - 6.0%

56
Q

HgA1C - tells you what

A

blood glucose over 90 days
Indicates how their blood sugar is doing
Higher - indicates diabetes

57
Q

Cardiac enzymes - Troponin 1

A

0.0 to 0.1 ng/ml

58
Q

Cardiac enzymes - troponin 2

A

less than 0.18 ng/ml

59
Q

Cardiac enzymes - Troponin 1 and 2 - what is important to note

A

They start to rise within 3-4 hrs of having MI but dont peak until 12-24 hours -
Could take up to 2 wks for troponins to come back to normal levels

60
Q
