SO CLOSE! Flashcards
s/s of exercise intolerance among those undergoing cardiac rehab
Persistent dyspnea
Dizziness
Anginal pain
Sudden weight gain
Systolic - reason to terminate exercise
drop of 20 mmHg or more
Mode of action for beta blcokers
Dec HR
Dec contractility
Dec BP
Dec oxygen demand
Mode of action for ACE inhibitors
Reduce peripheral vascular resistance
Increase venous capacitance
Classic s/s of heart failure
peripheral pitting edema weight gain jugular vein distention diminished appetite RUQ discomfort Ventricular gallop (S3) dyspnea paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea
Clinical manifestations of arterial disease
Pain Pallor Paralysis Hair loss Thin, shiny skin
Clinical manifestations of venous insufficiency
Edema
Hemosiderin staining
Normal arterial pulses
Sounds between S1 and S2 are called
Systolic murmurs
Sounds between S2 and S1 are called
Diastolic mumurs
Secretions in the peripheral airways leads to what sound
Crackles
Friction rub is associated with
Pleural effusion
Low pitched wheezes are associated with
obstruction (like bronchospasm)
Emphysema will present with what breath sounds
Diminished or absent
Hyperinflated chest would give what sound with percussion
Tympanic
Consolidation (increase in secretions) would lead to what sounds
Increased fremitus with consolidation
Crackles maybe
Prone with bed flat is best used to drain what lobes
Superior segments of lower lobes
Long sitting, leaning back 30 deg is best used for
apical segments of upper lobes
Supine with head down and pt rotated one quarter backward is best for
Lingula
Lower lobe atelectasis may be cleared with what pt position
Pt on uninvolved side, one quarter turn from prone with head down 30 deg
Common position to relieve dyspnea
Forward supported sitting
It inc intraabdominal pressure and improves length tension of diaphragm and allows for accessory mm use
CO = SV x HR
SV typically plateaus when
Around 35-40% of max exercise
So then CO is augmented by an inc in HR
Inc in HR = inc in CO
Inc in SV does not always equal an increase in CO
Aging - and resting blood pressure
Resting blood pressure increases with advancing age
ABI of 0.6 =
Mdoerate peripheral artery disease
ABI of 0.9 =
normal
ABI of 1.1 =
arterial calcification
ABI of 1.0 =
normal
Incentive spirometry is used to help a pt achieve
Sustained max inspiration
Resistance training post CABG
not until at least 8 wks
Low hematocrit indicates ___ and can lead to ___
Indicates anemia
Can lead to hypoxia
Low platelets can lead to
Excessive bruising
First degree heart block =
Long PR
Second degree type 1
Progressively lengthening PR ; drops QRS every 4th
Second degree type II
Progressively lengthening PR ; drops WRS every 2, 3, or 4th
R BBB
Rs go below isoelelectric line
L BBB
Rs don’t go below isoelectric line
Mountain looking one
Normal platelet
150,000 to 400,000
Normal WBC
4,500 - 11,000
Normal hemoglobin
12-18 g/dL
Normal INR
0.9 - 1.1
When on anticoagulants - will be 2 - 3.5
Pleural effusion - what breath sounds
Decreased
Decreased fremitus?
Sequence for cough
Inspiration greater than tidal volume
Closure of glottis
Abdominal mm cx
Sudden opening of glottis
Taking digitalis does what to EKG
Lengthens PR interval
HR inc during phase 1 of cardiac rehab
no more than 130 bpm
No more than 20 bpm over resting
If surgical, no more than 30 bpm over resting
Upper limit of DBP in phase 1
110
Max aerobic capacity for M and W typically ranges from what to what (in METs)

10%
Average tidal volume
500 mL
Average total lung capacity
4,000 - 6,000 mL
IRV what percent of total lung capacity
55-60%
