Q

QRS Complex- Morphology- Q Wave is:
R Wave is:
S wave is:
Interval Duration:

A

= 1st negative deflection after the P wave
= 1st positive deflection after the P wave
= any negative deflection after the R wave
= 0.04 – 0.12 sec/ 1-3 small boxes

17
Q

T Wave- Morphology:
Interval Duration:
Amplitude in limb leads:
Amplitude in precordial leads:

A

= Upright in all leads except aVR & V1, Normally downslope>upslope
= Variable (QT Calculation)
= < 5 mm/ 5 small boxes in the limb leads
= < 10 mm in the precordial leads

18
Q

ECG – Systematic Approach– 1st: Rate
2nd: Rhythm:
3rd: P Waves:
4th: PR Interval:
5th: QRS Complex:

A

= What is the rate per minute?
= regular, regularly irregular or totally irregular?
= Present?, All look the same?, in front of every QRS complex?
= within normal limits?, Is it the same for every cardiac beat?
= Present?, All look same?, after every P wave?, within normal limits?

19
Q

Pulse Ox measures:
Oxyhemoglobin is:
Carbaminohemoglobin:

A

= how much hemoglobin saturated w/ something %
= oxygen carrying Hemoglobin
= carbon dioxide on hemoglobin amino-acid

20
Q

Carbonic Acid-Bicarbonate origin:
Lungs:

A

= CO2 + H2O<>H2CO3<>H + HCO3
= Lungs: H + HCO3<> H2CO3<>H2O + CO2

21
Q

CO-Oximetry reads:

A

= PR & SPO2, Carboxyhemglobin(SpCO), Methemoglobin (SpMet), Hemoglobin (SpHb)

22
Q

Carbon monoxide Poisoning Lvls- Mild:
Moderate:
Severe:
Fatal:

A

= 15-20% → N/V, dizziness, blurred vision, H/A
= 21-40% → confused, faint, dys/tachypnea&cardia, weak, chest pain
= 41-59% → Dysrhythmias, hypotension
= >60% → Death

23
Q

Methemoglobin=
Methemoglobinemia=
treat w/:

A

= Hemoglobin not picking up ( w/ iron in ferric (Fe3+) vs oxy)
= changing color from lack of oxygenated hemoglobins
= Methylene Blue

24
Q

MetHemoglobin Lvls- 1-3%:
3-15%:
15-20%:
25-50%:
50-70%:
>70%:

A

= Normal
= discoloration, grayish-blue
= Cyanotic, asymptomatic
= CNS H/A, N/V, Confusion, Chest pain
= AMS, delirium
= Fatal

25
Q

(Capnography)- normal reading:
Height:
Length:
Phase 1:
Phase 2:
Phase 3:
Phase 4:
Tachypnea leads to:
bradypnea leads to:
sharkfin waves mean:
Curare cleft means:

A

= 35-45
= total CO2
= time/rate
= baseline
= respiratory upstroke
= expiratory plateau
= inspiratory downslope
= alkalosis
= acidosis
= bronchoconstriction (asthma attack)
= diaphragm waking up so→ sedate again

26
Q

Endocrine A&P- Endocrine tissue of pancreas is called:
Alpha Cells:
Beta Cells:
Type 1 vs Type 2 diabetic:

A

= Islets of Langerhans
= Produce glucagon thus increases BGL “a upside down g”
= Produce insulin thus decreases BGL
= 1>insulin dependent 2>cell don’t open for glucose when insulin bind

27
Q

Insulin Acts as:
Most well known as/for:

A

= a key to unlock door for glucose to enter the cell
= facilitated diffusion

28
Q

Glucagon “Gon Big” released by:
Insulin released by:

A

= Alpha cells of pancreas when BGL drops & release rise BGL
= Beta cells of pancreas when BGL rockets & release lower BGL

29
Q

Type 1 AKA Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM) or juvenileonset diabetes:

Type 2 AKA Non- Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (NIDDM):

A

= Usually by autoimmune disorder when immune system attacks beta cells & w/o insulin, glucose can’t enter cell & cell can’t make ATP (cant survive w/o external insulin
= body resists insulin @ cellular Lvl & Highly associated w/ obesity (often on PO meds to treat: 1. Some up secretion of insulin, Some stim/ receptors on cell for insulin, Others down effects of glucagon & release of glucose stored in the liver)

30
Q

Normal ECG Speed:

A

= 25mm/sec

31
Q

Oxyhemoglobin is:
Carbaminohemoglobin:
Methemoglobin:

Deoxyhemoglobin:
Carboxyhemoglobin:
Sulfhemoglobin:
Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c):

A

= oxygen carrying Hemoglobin
= carbon dioxide on hemoglobin amino-acid
= Hemoglobin not picking up ( w/ iron in ferric (Fe3+) vs oxy)
= Hemoglobin not bound to oxygen.
= Hemoglobin bound to carbon monoxide (CO).
= Hemoglobin irreversibly bound to sulfur.
= Hemoglobin bound to glucose for measuring long-term BGL control
