24
Q

This assessment is often obtained in patients with rickets or Marfan syndrome

A

A

Pigeon Chest (Pectus Carinatum)

26
Q

Difference between MI and Angina Pectoris

A

MI is irreversible and Angina Pectoris reversible

27
Q

Common side effects of nitroglycerine

A

-Headache
-Orthostatic Hypertension
-Flushing of skin
-Tachycardia
-Dizziness

28
Q

Describe the mechanism or process behind the heart’s conduction system.

A

SA node starts each heart beat and sets the pace> from the SA node the electrical impulses spreads through the atria to the AV node to cause a contraction> Once the AV node is finished contracting it is passed through the> bundle of his? left and right bundle branch> purkinje fibers> then spreads towards the ventricles

29
Q

Refers to the total amount of blood ejected by one of the ventricles in liters per minute

A

Cardiac Output

30
Q

How to compute for cardiac output?

A

stroke volume multiply by the heart rate.

31
Q

Refers to the amount of blood ejected from one of the ventricles per heart bear

A

Stroke Volume

32
Q

Stroke volume is primarily determined by what factors?

A

-preload
-afterload
-contractility

33
Q

Normal Pulse Pressure

A

30-40 mm Hg

34
Q

Decreased pulse pressure may indicate or suggests:

A

-HF
-hypovolemia
-shock
-mitral regurgitation

35
Q

Cardiac biomarkers that indicates myocardial tissue cell death

A

(Troponin Increase) - Remarkable - 3 Hours
(Myoglobin) - Mauuna - One hour
(CK - Mb)- Kwatro - 4-6 hours increased (creatine kinase myocardial bond)
(AST) - Aspartate aminotransferase - Increased 8 hours
(LDH) - lactate dehydrogenase - increase in 1 day or 24 hrs

36
Q

What does “BE FAST” stands for and what does this indicate?

A

“BE FAST” warning signs of Stroke
Balance
Eyes (vision loss)

Facial Dropping
Arm drifting
Slurred speech
Time to call 911

37
Q

Manifestations of problems with right-sided heart function.

A

Peripheral and sacral edema, jugular vein distention, and organomegaly

38
Q

process whereby gases move from an area of high pressure to low pressure.

A

Diffusion
*This includes during - Internal respiration - this is the movement in the internal tissues between cells and capillaries, and - External respiration - when gas is exchanged between the alveoli and lung capillaries.

39
Q

refers to the blood flow to tissues and organs. Alveoli are perfused by capillaries so the diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide can take place.

A

Perfusion
