Pn2 Test 2 info Flashcards
S/s of heart failure
JVD
Lower extremity edema
Abd fullness
Nausea
What is thrombocytopenia
Low platelets counts
What is peripheral arterial disease
Type of PVD that is most commonly associated with claudication symptoms
What is leukocytosis
WBC 14,000
Normal ??
First line tx for heart failure that can cause low potassium levels
Lasix or loop diuretics
Smoking, obesity poor diet habits and high cholesterol may result in which type of HTN
Primary HTN
Goal is 3-4 with this kind of heart valve
Mechanical HV
Med that reduces the work load of the heart, decreases preload, improves activity tolerance
Beta blockers
Normal INR level
0.8-1.1
Deep vein thrombosis INR goal range ?
2-3
S/s of anemia
Fatigue Pallor SOB Pale Conjuctivae
Common S/s of left heart failure or pulmonary edema
Crackles in lungs
Dyspnea
Wet cough
Ventricular heart failure associated with reduced contraction and decreased ejection fraction
Systolic heart failure
Petechiae and smooth beefy red tongue are finding of this hematologic condition
Vitamin B12 deficiency anemia
Absent pulses, cool extremity and decreased or absent sensation ??? Which condition?
Acute arterial thrombosis
Lab value used to evaluate for deep vein thrombosis
D-dimer
Class of drugs that reduce afterload but are notorious for causing increased potassium levels
Ace inhibitors
Result of decreased cardiac output due to constriction of the hearts ability to pump effectively from a build up of fluid
Tamponade
Ventricular heart failure due to a stiffened ventricular that doesn’t fill adequately
diastolic heart failure
Main trigger of this hematologic condition is hypoxia
Sickle cell crisis
Arterial pressure test used to evaluate patient s who have c/o claudication symptoms
Ankle/brachial indexes or ABI
Gold standard of diagnosing anatomical cardiac conditions as well as determining ejection fraction
Echocardiogram
Symptoms of toxicity of this drug that increases contractility of the heart are vision changes such as halos or blurry vision, nausea and confusion
Digoxin
Symptoms of this condition are grating chest pain, worse pain with inspiration and relieved by sitting up and leaning forward
Pericarditis
