Test 2 Flashcards
V1-V6
precordial leads
ammonia sulfur dioxide chlorine nitrogen dioxide ozone phosgene
irritant gases
pulmonary fibrosis diseases of the spine and chest wall diseases of the neuromuscular system
restrictive lung diseases
decreased exercise tolerance
decreased oxygen consumption
loss of muscle strength
sedentary
abnormal HR response
chronic renal failure and exercise
Give radioactive agent at peak of stress test then while patient is at rest 4 hours later if cold spot is still present after 4 hours of rest the tissue is dead and blood flow did not return after stress
Radionuclide perfusion testing with SPECT
normal QRS characteristics
.07-.11 sec in width should not be smaller than 6 mm in leads I, II and III should not be taller than 25-30 mm in precordial leads
posterior curvature of spine
kyphosis
normal p wave
no wider than .11 sec under 3 mm positive and rounded
refers to the direction of depolarization or vector of the QRS complex
axis
placed in the 4th left intercostal space at the sternal border
V2
Unipolar leads all other leads are averaged together to make a reference
augmented voltage leads
ABI, Ultrasound, exercise studies
Vascular diagnostic testing
normal creatine
<1.5 mg/dL
types of emphysema
centriacinar panacinar
V1-V6
precordial leads
objectives of stres test: quantitatively and accurately assess;
