Vet Sci IV Flashcards
AMBU bag use and how to hook it up
used to ventilate pt with O2 during CPCR
O2 goes in small hole in rear of bag
large hole connects to the patients ET tube
Borderline Hypoxia O2 Sat. values
O2 saturation 90-95%
Hypoxia O2 Sat. values
<90% O2 saturation
Cyanosis O2 Sat. values
<85% O2 saturation
What does CPCR stand for?
CardioPulmonary
Cerebrovascular
Resuscitation
How to place a patient for CPCR
R lateral
hands at elbow

How to treat Ventricular Asystole
CPCR
Epinephrine
Atropine
How to treat Sinus Arrhythmia
Normal in dogs, but if under anesthesia increase gas
How to treat sinus Bradycardia
Anticholinergic
How to treat sinus tachycardia
treat by addressing underlying cause
How to treat V-fib
treat with Defibrillator
How to treat V-tach
Lidocaine drip in anesthesia or propanolol
How to treat VPC or PCV
treat underlying cause
increase oxygen/decrease gas
try lidocaine drip
notify Dr.
How to treat second degree AV block
Anticholinergic if under anesthesia
can be normal in horses
if the ECG tape is 50mm per second then multiply beats by
20
if the ECG tape is 25mm per second then multiply beats by
10
How to treat third degree AV block
pacemaker
Systolic murmur
lub-swoosh-dub
Diastolic murmur
Lub-dub-swoosh
3 murmur causes
Valvular insufficiency
Valvular stenosis
PDA
3 ways the heart compensates for murmurs
increase HR
Hypertrophy
dilate chambers
Gingivitis
inflammation of gingiva
Periodontal dz
bacterial infection in periodontal pocket
Gingival sulcus
the groove formed between the neck and gingiva
Apical delta
where the blood vessels and nerves exit and enter
