Q

Newton’s second law states

A

Acceleration of a body is in the direction of and proportional to the force (F), and that acceleration (a) is inverse to the mass (m) of the body,F = ma.If multiple forces exist, the direction and acceleration are proportional to the sum of all the forces. These are calledvectors.

33
Q

area of a circle formula:

A

A= pi x r^2

34
Q

When calculating force and given N and diameter of a circle in cm, the diameter (or radius) must be converted to what unit?

A

METERS

because newton = m/sec

35
Q

When you double the diameter or radius, what would happen to the pressure?

A

decrease 4 fold

decrease by factor of 4

36
Q

When you triple the diameter or radius, what would happen to the pressure?

A

decrease 9 fold

decrease by factor of 9

37
Q

When you half the diameter or radius, what would happen to the pressure?

A

increase 4 fold

increase by factor of 4

38
Q

oscillate:

A

periodic fluctuation between two things

Back and forth motion at a regular speed

39
Q

How do our BP cuffs work?

A

oscillometry
cuff inflates, as it deflates and releases pressure from occluding, blood oscillates under cuff with every beat of the heart

40
Q

How does oscillometry measure BP?

A

Physically measures the mean pressure (MAP) and calculates the systolic and diastolic pressures.
as cuff deflates and releases pressure from occluding, blood oscillates under cuff with every beat of the heart

41
Q

As BP site moves more peripherally, the systolic pressure tends to _____ and diastolic pressure to ____

A

systolic increases, diastolic decreases

42
Q

What happens to pulse pressure as BP cuff moves form bicep to calf?

A

increases, because systolic increases and diastolic decreases

43
Q

How is oscillometry affected in patients with cardiac arrhythmias?

A

less accurate/less reliable

44
Q

Where is pulse pressure lowest?

a. Over bicep
b. Over forearm
c. Over thigh
d. Over calf

A

A. over bicep
as move further from heat, pulse pressure is greater
close to heart, pulse pressure is lower

45
Q

Where is pulse pressure highest?

a. Over bicep
b. Over forearm
c. Over thigh
d. Over calf

A

d. calf, most peripheral

46
Q

NIBP may be inaccurate with what heart rhythm?

a. a fib
b. a flutter

A

a fib- irregularly irregular, so NIBP via oscillometry will likely be less reliable

a flutter is not an irregular rhythm, its an arrhythmia but it is regular
