hemodynamics Flashcards
increased CVP
hypervolemia
recommend diuretics
Decrease CVP
indicates and treatment
hypovolemia
recommend fluid therapy
hypovolemia definition
condition which liquid portion of the blood ,plasma, is too low
hypervolemia
liquid portion of the blood, plasma, is to high
heart sounds
S1 - sound is created by
the normal closure of the mitral and trcuspid valves in the beginning of ventricular contraction
heart sounds
S2 - sound normally occurs when
systole ends, the ventrcles relax and the pulmonic and aortic valces close
heart sounds
The presence of a S4 sound indicates
cardiac abnormallity such as uncontrolled hypertension or aortic stenosis
two types of vasodilators
Direct vasodilators
ACE inhibitors
Lisinopril
Perindopril
Captopril
ACE inhibitor (vasodilator)
Meds used to treat vasodilation
epinephrine
phenylephrine
dopamine
dobutamine
B-blockers or B antagonist drugs will
decrease heart rate
(atenolol, propranolol)
Chronotropic drugs will
incrase HR
(atropine)
positive inotropic drugs cause
increase contractility
(digoxin, digitalis)
pressure transducer
used to convert one form of energy into another form
used in hemodynamics
Cor Pulmonale
whats failing? R or L?
right heat failure
