Q5 Final Flashcards
points of auscultation
PAM- 3,4,5
T- low 5
what are the sounds of the heart
S1- AVs close
S2- Semilunars close
S3- ventricular filling
S4- atrial contraction
grades of heart murmur
1- super faint
2- heart sounds still louder than murmur
3- heard on both sides of chest
4- cannot hear normal
5- palpable thrill
6- stethoscope off chest
what can weak femoral pulses signify
hypotension and aortic stenosis
what can bounding femoral pulses signify
PDA and aortic insufficiency
ECG lead locations
white is right (arm), smoke (left arm) over fire (left leg)
what does the doppler measure
systolic BP
where do you start your measurement for VHS
cranial edge of T4
8 primary derm lesions
macule, papule, pustule, vesicle, wheal, nodule, and cyst
7 secondary derm lesions
epidermal collarette, scar, excoriation, ulcer/erosion, fissure, lichenification, callus
papules
very small elevation of skin (pyoderma)
nodule
solid elevation of tissue more than 1cm
macule
circumscribed change in skin color but FLAT
wheal
hives (small dermal edema)
leukotrichia
loss of hair pigment
darier’s sign
urticarial response caused by pressure on the skin (mast cell tumors)
nikolsky’s sign
rotating pressure causes epidermal separation (immune mediated)
why would you use KOH on a wet mount slide
epidermal cells separate from dermatophytes
six things to look for during gait analysis
symmetry, stride length, circumduction, head bob, hopping, stumbling
medial buttress
palpate medial aspect of tibia during standing exam
campbell’s test
testing for laxity in MCL/LCL of the elbow
common long bone tumor sites
away from the elbow
towards the knee
markers for tibial thrust test
one pointer finger over patellar tendon and tibial tuberosity, other hand flexes and extends tarsus
markers for cranial drawer test
patella and lateral fabella, tibial tuberosity and head of the fibula
grading patellar luxation
1- patella in normal position, with some luxation
2- patella naturally in normal position but cannot return on its own
3- patella luxated, can reduce but will re-luxate on own
4- patella luxated, difficult to reduce
iliopsoas sign
pain on medial rotation of pelvic limb and abduction, pain on palpation of area
menace response CN
2 and 7
proptosis
protrusion of eye outside of bony orbit
microphthalmia
small globe (vs buphthalmia)
exophthalmos
anterior displacement of globe (vs enophthalmos)
epiphora
excessive tearing - often pain
anisocoria
different sizes pupils
PLR CN
