Acute glomerulonephritis that is associated with beta hemoloytic step>>> is an immunologic disorder
that is caused by beta-hemolytic step occurs 21 days after respiratory or skin infection
What is common after repeated vomiting>>> hypokalemia and hypomagesemia, it is important to check
a pts electrolyte levels
Peripheral edema, shortness of breath, and dizziness are>>> common with pacemakers failure.
Decreased cardiac output
Which of the following is a complication that occurs during the first 24 hours after a percutaneous liver
biopsy?>>> Hemorrhage
increased pulse, a decreased blood pressure, and increased respirations indicate shock. Shock is a result
of an>>> Hemorrhage
orthostatic hypotension due to autonomic dysfunction.>>> parkinsons disease
One cup of fluid is equal to>>> 8 oz
One oz is equal to>>> 30ml
Why are diuretics given?>>> Promote excretion of sodium and water though the kidneys
Hypotension and hypovolemic shock are complications of a paracentesis due to removal of a large
volume of fluid.>>> paracentesis
The specific gravity of urine>>> (1.010- 1.030) and the normal levels of hematocrit (male 42- 50%,
female 40- 48%)
normal range for a PTT is?>>> 20- 45 seconds;
Autocratic leadership>>> is an approach in which the leader retains all authority and is primarily
concerned with task accomplishment
Situational leadership>>> is a comprehensive approach that incorporates the leader's style, the maturity
of the work group, and the situation at hand.
Democratic leadership>>> is a people-centered approach that is primarily concerned with human
relations and teamwork. This leadership style facilitates goal accomplishment and contributes to the
growth and development of the staff.
, Laissez-faire>>> leadership is a permissive style in which the leader gives up control and delegates all
decision making to the work group.
>>> Findings associated with fluid volume excess include cough, dyspnea, crackles, tachypnea,
tachycardia, an elevated blood pressure, a bounding pulse, an elevated central venous pressure, weight
gain, edema, neck and hand vein distention, an altered level of consciousness, and a decreased
hematocrit level.
Potassium-rich>>> gastrointestinal (GI) fluids are lost through GI suction, which places the client at risk
for hypokalemia
>>> Cushing's syndrome or diarrhea and the client who has been overusing laxatives are at risk for
hypokalemia
hyperkalemia>>> Clients who experience the cellular shifting of potassium, as in the early stages of
massive cell destruction (i.e., with trauma, burns, sepsis, or metabolic or respiratory acidosis), are at risk
for hyperkalemia
Sensible>>> are those that the person is aware of, such as those that occur through wound drainage, GI
tract losses, and urination.
Insensible losses>>> may occur without the person's awareness. Insensible losses occur daily through
the skin and the lungs.
isotonic solutions>>> 0.9 sodium cholride this is normal saline lactated ringers solution
hypotonic solutions (more dilute hypos love water)>>> treats edema and kidney disease and is 5%
dextrose and water
Hypertonic solutions (higher concentrations of particles)>>> 3% sodium chloride protein solutions comes
in 10, 50, 70% dextrose
Colloid solutions>>> contain solutes of higher molecular weight than the serum
examples
Plasmanate, dextra, hespan, salt poor albumin
Hypertonic solutions are used to treat>>> severe hyponatremia and negative nitrogen balance.
Hyperalmentation can lead to>>> hyperglycemia, *so if the client must be monitored for hyperglycemia
and might have to have insulin added to the solution or give subcutaneously during therpy
Sodium>>> 135-145
potassium>>> 3.5-5.5
