Orthopnea

A

Type of dyspnea where easier to breathe sitting up

23
Q

Orthostatic Hypertension

A

BP drops when standing up

24
Q

Peripheral Pulse

A

Pulse from hand/legs

25
Q

Point of maximal impulse (PMI)

A

Where pulse is most palpable

26
Q

Pulse Deficit

A

Differ in pusle btwn apical and radial AKA lack of peripheral perfussion

27
Q

Pulse Rhythm

A

Pattern of heart beat, time btwn beats, all consistant

28
Q

Respiration

A

Inhale/Exhale. Normal 12-20 per/min

29
Q

Stroke Volume

A

Amount of blood entering aorta at each contraction

30
Q

Systolic Pressue

A

BP in when heart contracts

31
Q

Tachycardia

A

Abnormaly fast heart beats. > 100 BPM

32
Q

Tachypnea

A

Abnormal fast respiratory rate, > 20

33
Q

Temperature

A

Differ btw heat made by body - lost in environment

34
Q

Vital Signs

A

Measures physiological functioning

Temp., Pulse, Respirations, Blood Pressure, Pulse Oxygen, Pain

35
Q

Acute Pain

A

Rapid onset and varies in intensity from mild to severe. Last 3-6 months

36
Q

Chronic Pain

A

Limited intermittent or persistant pain that can last beyond normal healing. AKA more than 6 months

37
Q

FLACC Scale

A

FACE, LEGS, ACTIVITY, CRY, CONSOLABILITY.

Measurement used to assess pain for children ages of 2m-7y or individuals that are unable to communicate their pain

38
Q

Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)

A

Asking the patient to rate his or her pain from 0 to 10

39
Q

PAINAD Scale

A

Pain Assessment in Advanced Dementia

40
Q

Wong - Baker Face pain rating Scale

A

Scale that shows a series of faces ranging from a happy face at 0 “no hurt” - to a crying face at 10 “hurts like the worst pain imaginable”

41
Q

Respiration System

A
  • Gas Exchange
  • Organs from base of diaphragm - apex above first rib
  • R Lung 3 Lobes - Left lung 2 Lobes
  • Pulmonary Ventilation, Respiration, Perfusion
42
Q

Ventilation

A

Breathing - Breathing air in and out

Inhale - Active Exhale - Passive

43
Q

Respiration

A

Gas Exchange - Occurs by diffusion after alveoli are ventilated
Diff of 02 from alveoli into pul blood vessels
Diff of C02 from PBV to Alveoli

44
Q

Factors Influencing Diffusion of Gases in the Lungs

A
  • Change in surface area available
  • Thickening of alveolar-capillary membrane
  • (Incomplete lung expansion or lung collapse- Atelectasis)
  • Partial pressure
45
Q

Perfusion

A
  • 02 Transport from lungs to tissue
  • 97% attach to hemoglobin in RBC
  • 3% in plasma
46
Q

Factors that affect perfusion

A
  • Cardiac output
  • The amount of blood flowing through the lungs
  • Erythrocytes and hematocrit
  • Activity level
47
Q

Respiratory regulation

A
  • Resp. center in medulla oblongata in the brain stem
  • CO2 stimulates respiration
  • Chemoreceptors
  • Hypoxic drive
48
Q

Hypoxia

A

A Condition of insufficient oxygen anywhere in the body

49
Q

Hypoxia S/S

A
Early: 
- Increased restlessness or light headedness, irritability, anxiety
- Confusion, tachypnea, tachycardia
- Rapid  shallow respirations and dyspnea
- Flaring of nares, Decreased LOC
                   Late :
- Substernal or intercostal retractions
- Cyanosis, Bradypnea, Bradycardia

Cynaosis - A bluish discoloration of the skin resulting from poor circulation or inadequate oxygenation of the blood.

  • Hypoxemia - reduced oxygen in the blood
  • Hypoventilation- Slow shallow breathes
    - Under expansion of lungs leading to decreased o2 levels
    - It may occur because of :
    - Diseases of the resp. muscle
    - Drugs or anesthesia
  • Hypercarbia or Hypercapnia - Increase CO2 in body
50
Q

Altered Breathing Patterns Related to :

A

Rate, Rythm, Depth/Volume, Ease or effort of respiration

51
Q

Altered Breathing Patterns r/t Rate :

A
Eupnea - nonlabored 12-20 BPM
Tachypnea - abnormally fast <20
Bradypnea - abnormally slow >20
Apnea - Cease of respiration
Kussmaul’s breathing - Abnormally deep breathing (strong inhale + exhale). R/T severe metabolic acidosis, seen with diabetic ketoacidosis. Body tries to rid of c02 (acid)
52
Q

Altered Breathing Patterns r/t Volume :

A
  • Hypoventilation - slow shallow breathing leads to high c02 / low 02 levels. Caused by disease or drugs
  • Hyperventilation - fast shallow breathing leads to low c02 / high 02 levels. Exhale more than you inhale
