Exam5 Ch 18 Disorders of Blood Flow & Blood Pressure Flashcards
1
Q
auditory examination of the heart
A
Auscultation
2
Q
- turbulent blood flow @ high BP associated w/irregularities, constriction, or dilation of any structure blood flows thru
- most common cause is Rheumatic Fever
A
Murmurs
3
Q
friction w/in pericardium caused by disruption of pericardial fluid
A
Rub
4
Q
- chest pain during exertion, goes away after 5-10 mins of rest
- caused by Ischemia (loss of blood flow to tissues)
A
Angina
5
Q
irregular rhythm based on RATE
- Wandering Pacemaker
- Nodal Premature
- Tachycardia
- Bradycardia
A
Arrhythmia
6
Q
SA node does not cue rest of the heart the way it should
A
Wandering Pacemaker
7
Q
premature beats generated by AV node
A
Nodal Premature
8
Q
fast heartbeat more than 100/min
A
Tachycardia
9
Q
slow heartbeat less than 60/min
A
Bradycardia
10
Q
irregular rhythm based on FUNCTION
- Atrial Fibrillation
- Ventricular Fibrillation
- Myocardial Infarction/Ischemia
A
Dysrhythmia
11
Q
flutter, no discernible P wave
A
Atrial Fibrillation
12
Q
- total erratic electrical activity
- ventricle quivers but does not contract, no cardiac output
- fatal unless treated w/immediate defibrillation
A
Ventricular Fibrillation
13
Q
chest pain/angina
A
Myocardial Infarction/Ischemia
14
Q
- block norepinephrine & epinephrine from bind to beta receptors on nerves to reduce BP
- non-selective
A
Beta Blockers
15
Q
decrease contractility, decrease heart rate, decrease conduction velocity
A
Calcium Antagonists
