NR 507 Final EXAM Study Guide
Endometrial Cycle
(ANS- Three Phases: Proliferative Phase, Secretory Phase, Ischemic Phase,
Ovulation occurs between the follicular/proliferative and the luteal/secretory phase
uterine prolapse
(ANS- the decent of the cervix or entire uterus into the vaginal canal ** can be
severe protruding completely through vagina and protrude from introitus
PCOS
(ANS- Oligo-ovulation or anolvulation elevated androgen levels and polycystic
ovaries
testicular cancer
(ANS- highly treatable cancer develops in young middle aged men cure rate 90%
often manifests as painless enlargement that is gradual sensation of heaviness with
dull ache
Risk factors for testicular cancer
(ANS- cryptorchidism, abnormal testicular development, hiv, aids, Klinefelter
syndrome, Hx of testicular CA.
Eval for breast Ca
(ANS- Painless lump in the breast palpable nodes in the axilla retraction of the
tissue or dimpling of the skin bone pain caused by metastasis to vertebrae.
, Premenstrual dysphoric disorder
(ANS- cycle in recurrence (occurs in the luteal phase) distressing physical
psychological or behavioral changes that impair relationship or interfere with usual
activity.
dysfunctional uterine bleeding
(ANS- heavy menstrual bleeding which does not appear to have any anatomical
cause other causes have been ruled out accounts for 70% of hysterectomies and
ablations.
prostate cancer
(ANS- cancer of the prostate gland, usually occurring in men middle-aged and
older chronic exposure to arsenic as well as estrogen is a risk factor
HPV and Cervical Cancer
(ANS-
- HPV found in 95% of cervical cancer
- 80-90% transient, gone 1-2 years (which is why we test q 3 years)
- 10-20% persist (of these, 2% progress to cervical cancer)
Human papillomavirus linked to development of precancerous cells known as
dysplasisa
high hormone levels
(ANS- causes negative feed back decreasing secretion of the tropic hormone.
