Midterm: Patient Preparation Flashcards
8- 16 hours of fasting for
Glucose, lipid, lipopolysaccharide
Increase lactate, fatty acid, ammonia, ALT, AST, CDK, LD
Increase in growth hormone, prolactin, testosterone and leutenizing hormone
Exercise
48 hours fasting for
Increase in serum bilirubin
72 hours for
Plasma triglyceride
Metabolic products or food can increase high CHON and increase Urea
Diet
Will increase urinary excretion of 5 hydroxy indole acetic acid
Serotonin
Increase concentration of glucose
Caffeine
Release catecholamine from medulla and brain tissue
Caffeine
Diet increase turbidity or lactescence
Triglyceride > 400mg/dl
Diet contribute to the degree of Icteric (bilirubin)
25.2 mg/L
Causes shifting of water and electrolytes into tissue causing hemoconcentration
Sitting to supine
Constriction of blood vessels and reduction of plasma volume
Supine to siting
Extra vascular water transfer to vascular system and dilutes nondiffusable plasma
Standing to supine
Prolonged tourniquet application can lead to?
Hemp concentration and anaerobic sis
Increase in NEFA ( nonesterified fatty acid)
Nicotine tobacco
Increase in gamma glutamyl transpeptidase

Hypoglycemia
Alcohol
Affects adrenal hormone.
WBC is affected
Stress
TDM SHOULD be scheduled from the last time of the last dose.
