39
Q

  • Difficulty talking, facial droop, sudden droop, sudden vision problems, and sudden severe headache
40
Q

Athero Management

A
  • IDentifying and controlling risk factors

Q

HTN

A

• As BP increases, so does the risk of – MI – Heart Failure – Stroke – Renal Disease • Affects 1 in 3 adults in the United States • High Priority health concern identified in Healthy People 2020

Factors Influencing BP • Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS) – Activation increases HR and cardiac contractility – Vasoconstriction and renin release – Increases CO and SVR

• Management – Diagnosis, treatment, modifications, and medications – Lifestyle • Weight • Diet • Alcohol • Exercise • Complications – Stroke, aneurysm, and hypertensive crisis

48
Q

HTN

A

• Primary (Essential) Hypertension • Secondary Hypertension • Isolated Systolic Hypertension • Psuedohypertension • Osler’s Sign

49

HTN Affects:

CAKE

A

Cardiovascular: CHF

BrAin: Stroke

Kidneys: renal failure

Eyes: Retina changes

50
Q

Life style Modifications

A

• Weight reduction • DASH eating plan • Dietary sodium reduction • Moderation of alcohol intake • Physical activity • Avoidance of tobacco products • Management of psychosocial risk factors Brunner (15th ed.) pg 871

51
Q

Laboratory Markers Predictors of Heart Disease

A

• Lipid Panel- HDL,LDL, Cholesterol **(fasting 8-12hours before this test)** • Cholesterol – Less than 200 mg/dL • Triglycerides – Less than 150 mg/dL • Low-density lipoproteins (LDL) - BAD – Less than 100 mg/dL • High-density lipoproteins (HDL) – Good – Male > 40 mg/dL Female > 50 mg/dL – Medication –statin • C-reactive Protein (not specific for cardiac dx-used in conjunction with other tests, shows inflammation (thinking atherosclerosis)) • Coagulation Studies- platelets,PT,PTT,INR • CMP- BUN/CREATININE • CBC • Thyroid panel: TSH, Free T4 • UA: Proteinuria(?

52
Q

Lab/Diagnostic Pearls (Dyslipidemia)

A

• Elevated LDL: DIET/DRUGS/DISEASES • Elevated Triglycerides-DIET/ETOH/DRUGS/DISEASES • HTN pts need a ECG with baseline labs • Statins: Low-Intensity, Moderate-Intensity, HighIntensity -Each lowers LSL at difference percentage rat

53
Q

Antihypertension Drug therapy recommendations

A

• Children: aim for reduction of BP to less than 95% BP percentile (Rudd page 244) • 60 years or older • Systolic BP > 150 mm Hg • Diastolic BP > 90 mm Hg • Less than 60 years old • Treatment initiation and goal: 140/90 mm Hg

HTN in Children: Usually begin med therapy with an ACE for chronic HTN Children with Emergency treatment of Acute HTN: Labetalol 0.1mg/k

Q

PAD

A

• Progressive narrowing of the arteries of the upper and lower extremities • Epidemiology – Majority are 65 years or older – African Americans are affected more often than any other group • Atherosclerosis is the leading cause of majority of cases

Pathophysiology : PAD – Progressive and chronic condition – Obstruction of blood flow through the large peripheral arteries causes arterial occlusion – Intermittent Claudication – Classic symptom of PAD – For patients with PAD, blood flow to the lower extremities needs to be improved, therefore the nurse encourages keeping the lower extremities in a neutral of dependent position

NOW: 6 Ps 1. Pain 2. Pallor 3. Pulselessness 4. Paresthesia 5. Paralysis 6. Poikilothermia (cool

Thin, shiny, and taut skin • Loss of hair on the lower legs

PAD Management •Smoking cessation •DM management –Glycosylated hemoglobin (A1C) <7.0% for diabetics –Optimal near 6.0% •Aggressive treatment of hyperlipidemia •Hypertension management •Exercise •DASH diet •No heating pads •Trim nails straight across •Float heels (place pillow under calves)

PAD Drug Therapy • ACE Inhibitors (-pril) • Antiplatelet agents •Intermittent claudication treatment –Pentoxifylline (Trental) –Cilostazol (Pletal) • Contradicted in patients with heart failure

PAD Management • Nonsurgical management – Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty – Laser-assisted angioplasty – Rotational atherectomy • Surgical management

63
Q

Acute Arterial Ischemic Disorders

A

• Embolus: the most common cause of occlusions, although local thrombus may be the cause • Assessment: 6 Ps • Drug therapy – What are they? How do they work? Antidote? Education? Labwork? Brunner pgs. 848-850 • Surgical therapy

64
Q

Raynaud’s Phenomenon

A

• Caused by vasospasm of the arterioles and arteries of the upper and lower extremities • Characterized by discoloration of fingers, toes, ears, & nose (white, blue, red) • Primarily in young women • Drug therapy: calcium channel blockers • Avoid temperature extremes, tobacco, caffeine • Reinforcement of client education • Work-up for autoimmune disease

65
Q

Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI)

A
  • A condition that develops when leg veins and valves fail to keep blood moving forward • Causes • S/S – Edema – Bulging veins – Venous ulcers – Chronic venous stasis – Improved when legs are elevated • Think gravity
  • Treatment: focus on management of edema & promoting venous return • Elevate legs, wear elastic or compression stockings, avoid prolonged sitting • TEDs apply in am & remove before hs • Apply compression over wound dressing – Unna boot – Profore
66
Q

Venous vs. Arterial Ulcers

A

• Venous – Location • Between knee and ankle – Cause • Venous stasis – Characteristics • Large with irregular borders • Beefy red • Granular tissue • Moderate to heavy exudate • Hyperpigmented surrounding skin • Pain is decreased by elevating legs • Arterial – Location • On feet/ankles – Cause • Arterial insufficiency – Characteristics • Wound margins even and sharply demarcated • Pale, gray, or yellow • No evidence of new tissue • Necrosis • Dry, necrotic eschar • Painful while exercising, while resting with feet elevated, and at night
