What is the difference between a sign and a Sign - Objective (Erythema, Edema, lesion)
symptom? Symptom - Subjective (Headache, sore, tired)
Na - Sodium 136-144 mEq
Hyponatremia - anorexia, gastrointestinal upset, poor skin
turgor, dry mucous membranes, blood pressure changes,
pulse changes, edema, headache, lethargy, confusion,
diminished deep tendon reflexes, muscle weakness, seizures,
and coma |
Hypernatremia - increased temperature, warm and flushed
skin, dry and sticky mucous membranes, dysphagia, increased
thirst, irritability, agitation, weakness, headache, seizures
,K - Potassium o 3.7-5.2 mEq |
Hypokalemia - muscle weakness, paresthesia, hyporeflexia,
leg cramps, weak and irregular pulse, hypotension,
dysrhythmias, electrocardiogram changes, decreased bowel
sounds, abdominal distension, constipation, ileus, and
cardiac arrest|
Hyperkalemia - paresthesia, muscle weakness, flaccid
paralysis, bradycardia, dysrhythmias, electrocardiogram
changes, cardiac arrest, respiratory depression, abdominal
cramping, nausea, and diarrhea
Mg - Magnesium .8-2.5 mEq | Hypermagnesemia - Same as hypercalcemia |
Hypomagnesemia - same as hypocalcemia
Ca - Calcium 4 - 5 mEq |
Hypercalcemia - dysrhythmias, electrocardiogram changes,
personality changes, confusion, decreased memory,
headache, lethargy, stupor, coma, muscle weakness,
decreased deep tendon reflexes, anorexia, nausea, vomiting,
constipation, abdominal pain, pancreatitis, renal calculi,
polyuria, and dehydration |
Hypocalcemia - dysrhythmias, electrocardiogram changes,
increased bleeding tendencies, anxiety, confusion,
depression, irritability, fatigue, lethargy, paresthesia, increased
deep tendon reflexes, tremors, muscle spasms, seizures,
laryngeal spasms, increased bowel sounds, abdominal
cramping, and positive Trousseau's and Chvostek's signs
P - Phosphorus .5 - 4.5 mg |
Hyperphosphatemia - dysrhythmias, electrocardiogram
changes, increased bleeding tendencies, anxiety, confusion,
depression, irritability, fatigue, lethargy, paresthesia, increased
deep tendon reflexes, tremors, muscle spasms, seizures,
laryngeal spasms, increased bowel sounds, abdominal
cramping, and positive Trousseau's and Chvostek's signs
Hypophosphatemia - dysrhythmias, electrocardiogram
changes, personality changes, confusion, decreased memory,
headache, lethargy, stupor, coma, muscle weakness,
decreased deep tendon reflexes, anorexia, nausea, vomiting,
Function of ribosomes Synthesizes proteins
· Hypervolemia Fluid volume excess in intravascular space
· Hypovolemia Fluid volume deficit in intravascular space
, · Homeostasis State of balance - reached by positive and negative feedback
- self regulated
· How does a vaccine provide immunity? Active immunity - antigen exposure
· Active immunity Vaccine, or having the virus - Body builds immunity through
exposure
· Passive immunity Receiving antibodies from external source - breastfeeding
· identify examples of malignant cells Rapid growing, metastasis, fatal, undifferentiated
· Assessment findings for localized Destroyed tissue, redness, swelling, heat, pain, function loss
inflammation
o Type I: IgE mediated Hay fever, food allergy, anaphylaxis
o Type II IgM/IgG: cytotoxic hypersensitivity Blood transfusion reaction, erythroblastosis
fetalis reaction
o Type III: immune complex-mediated Autoimmune conditions - Lupus
o Type IV: delayed hypersensitivity reaction Tuberculin skin testing, transplant reactions, contact dermatitis
· What findings would you expect in Bronchodilation, airway
constriction, someone with an anaphylactic reaction?
Manifestations of a type 1 hypersensitivity GI allergy
Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain
Skin manifestations
Urticaria (hives)
Mucosa
allergens
Conjunctivitis, rhinitis, asthma
Lung allergens
Bronchospasm, edema, thick secretions
· Manifestations of fight/flight response Increase HR, increased respirations, diaphoresis, pupil dilation,
increased blood flow to muscles, strength, alertness,
decreased inflammation
o Complication of compartment syndrome results from increased pressure in a compartment, usually the
muscle fascia in the case of fractures
o What is contact dermatitis? Acute inflammatory reaction triggered by direct exposure to
an irritant or allergen-producing substance
o Clinical manifestation of rheumatoid Fatigue, anorexia, fever, malaise, muscle spasms, morning
arthritis (RA) stiffness, warmth and tenderness in joints, anemia, depression,
unsteady gait
