How do you calculate cardiac out out
hR x Sv
Oxygen consumption is directly lrealted to
Intensity
Ionotropic =
Affects force of heart contractions
Chronotropic effects
hR
The three most recognizable signs of heart failure are
Dyspnea, fatigue and peripheral edema
S3 is produced when
During early ventricular filling when blood volume enters a non compliant or stiff ventricle
Low resting SBP with increased hr may indicate
Dehydration, hypovolemia, or even anemia and is common after surgey
Peripheral edema scale 1
Barely perceptible depression
Peripheral edema score 2
Easily identified and rebounds in less than 15 seconds
Peripheral edema score 3
Easily identified and rebounds 15-30 seconds
Peripheral edema score 4
Rebounds in greater than 30 seconds
How do You asses diastolic function of the right ventricle
Degree of putting in LE edema, jugular vein distention and external jugular vein prominence
How do you assess diastolic dysfunction of the left ventricle
Listen for rales, consistent with lung edema, low pitched heart sound S3, non productive cough its high pitched wheezing
Systolic function assessment
Festive and decreased activity tolerance
Signs and symptoms of left ventricular failure
Dyspnea, dry cough, dizziness, decreased exercise tolerance, tachycardia, muscle weakness and renal changes, fluid retention, pallor, cyanosis and crackles in lungs
Signs and symptoms for right ventricular failure
Peripheral edema, jugular vein distention. Decreassed exercise tolerance, fatigue, cyanosis, liver engoregment, anorexia or weight gain
