Final Exam Flashcards
Inflammation
a vascular reaction in which fluids, WBC, chemical mediators accumulate at injured tissue or infection site (increases permeability)
two phases of inflammation
vascular phase
delayed phase
vascular phase
occurs 10-15 mins post injury
Vasodilation, ↑capillary permeability, blood substance move from plasma to injury
delayed phase
leukocytes infiltrate the tissue
chemical mediators released during inflammation
prostaglandins (vasodilate, relax smooth muscle, increase permeability and pain)
Cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and 2, needed for synthesis of prostaglandins)
COX-1
protects stomach lining and regulates PLTs
COX-2
triggers inflammation and pain

advil AR and LT
Adverse reaction: GI bleeding
Life-threatening: blood dyscrasias, cardiac dysrhythmias, nephrotoxicity, anaphylaxis
nursing considerations of advil
Observe for signs of bleeding especially with anticoag use
Take with food to reduce GI discomfort
Avoid concomitant use with ASA and acetaminophen (an hour apart is fine)
Avoid ETOH to reduce ulcer risk
Inform dentist or surgeon of use prior or procedures
Do not take if pregnant or breastfeeding
celebrex preg warning
not for 3rd trimester
celebrex indications
to treat osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid arthritis, relieve dysmenorrhea
celebrex and COX
inhibits COX-2 (inflammation), not COX-1 (good for stomach issue pts)

caution of celebrex
renal or hepatic dysfunction, HTN, fluid retention, HF, infection, H/O GI bleeding or ulcer, concurrent AC/steroid or ETOH
SE and AR of celebrex

Adverse Reactions: peripheral edema
para-chlorobenzoid acid
anti-inflammatory
Class may increase BP, sodium and water retention
Example Indomethacin (Indocin)

Highly protein bound can result in toxicity
Irritating to stomach take with food

Sulindac (clinoril), tolmetin (Tolection)
Phenylacetic acid derivatives
antiinflammatory
Example : diclofenac sodium (Voltaren)
Indications: decrease inflammation RA, OA, ankylosing spondylitis
POTENTIALLY safe for cardiac pts bc maybe less systemic effects
