HEMODYNAMICS EXAM QUESTIONS WITH COMPLETE
SOLUTIONS GUARANTEED PASS


how is the patient perfusing?
HR, BP, O2 - ANSWER>>>hemodynamics


you have to know your pts __________ in order to monitor and
see if they are hemodynamically stable - ANSWER>>>baseline


to monitor for O2:
Cap refill, __________ count, RR=___________ , stridor,
wheezing, coughing, auscultate - ANSWER>>>hemoglobin,
tachypnea


if baseline is 80 and HR is now 50 that would be ___________ ,
from there look at them are they symptomatic of hemodynamically
unstable (are they dizzy?) - ANSWER>>>bradycardia


blood flow:
-decreased volume of blood= _________ BP, _________HR -
ANSWER>>>decreased, increased

,70% of blood volume is in the __________ - ANSWER>>>veins

increased ________= increased friction= slower blood flow -
ANSWER>>>viscosity


low blood flow might cause the HR to ___________ -
ANSWER>>>increase


the strength of the __________ of the heart maybe decreased
due to heart failure which would decrease_____________ -
ANSWER>>>contraction, blood flow


blood vessel diameter effects the blood flow
-vessel __________ = less blood flow
-vessel ___________ = more blood flow - ANSWER>>>constrict,
dilated


_________= flow (mmhg) x resistance (L/min or mL/min) -
ANSWER>>>pressure


= ease with which the fluid flows
