ASA class 1 - Answer-Pt with no disturbance ASA class 2 - Answer-Pt with mild to moderate systemic disturbance ASA class 3 - Answer-Pt with severe systemic disturbance ASA class 4 - Answer-Pt with sever life threatening systemic disorder ASA class 5 - Answer-Pt is moribund with little chance of survival Ischemia - Answer-Deficiency of blood to a body part due to functional constriction obstruction of a blood vessel Angina pectoris - Answer-Pain in the chest with a feeling of suffocation usually due to a deficiency of blood supply to the myocardium Myocardial infarction - Answer-Necrosis of tissue of the myocardium resulting from an interruption of the blood supply to the area, as in coronary thrombosis Rheumatic heart disease - Answer-Damage to the heart, primarily the heart valves, caused by a systemic bacterial infection Mitral valve prolapse - Answer-A valvular heart disorder in which one or both mitral valve flaps close incompletely Endocarditis - Answer-Inflammation of the myocardium (the lining of the cavities of the heart and connective tissue bed on which it lies) Hypertension - Answer-Elevated blood pressure. Greater that 140/90Beta blockers - Answer-Medication to decrease the force and rate of contraction of the heart, eg, atenolol. Treats high blood pressure Vasodilators - Answer-Medications used to reduce the pressure in the vasculature, eg, Norvasc, Lisinopril, Diovan. Treats high blood pressure Diuretics - Answer-Medications to reduce the volume of fluid in the system (HCTZ, Lasix) promotes excretion of urine and decrease of blood volume. treats high blood pressure Congestive heart failure - Answer-A clinical syndrome due to heart disease and characterized by breathlessness and abnormal water and sodium retention, resulting in edema Digitalis - Answer-A pharmacologic agent used to treat congestive heart failure, A fib, atrial flutter and paroxysmal tachycardia. It increases the force of cardiac contraction Left sided heart failure - Answer-Left side of heart fails to pump blood out into the circulation efficiency, causing blood to back up to the LUNGS Right sides heart failure - Answer-Right side of the heart fails to pump blood efficiently to the lungs, causing blood to back up in the peripheral circulation, causing peripheral edema Congenital heart disease - Answer-Cardiac disease caused by a defect in the heart structure since birth Arrhythmia - Answer-Any variation from the normal rhythm of the heartbeat Dysrhythmia - Answer-Disturbance of cardiac rhythm Normal sinus rhythm - Answer-The normal rhythm of the heart containing P waves, QRS complexes and T waves with a regular rate of 60-100 bpmP wave - Answer-A wave appearing on an ECG tracing that reflects the electrical activity that produces contraction of atria. The 1st elevation on the ECG. QRS complex - Answer-An element appearing on an ECG tracing that reflects the activity that produces ventricular contraction. The heart is at rest. It is narrow and has a width of less than half of one large block T wave - Answer-The ECG wave form that represents repolarization of the ventricles PR interval - Answer-From the beginning of the p wave to the beginning of the r wave is less than the width of 1 wide block Automaticity - Answer-A condition of being automatic
