DETAILED CORRECT ANSWERS | A+
GRADE STUDY GUIDE
Signs and symptoms of Chronic Bronchitis and its etiology
Correct Answer shortness of breath, wheezing
etiology: irritation of lung passage ways
cause: smoking
Difference between Systole and Diastole Correct Answer
systole (contraction) and diastole (relaxation)
difference between both = pulse pressure
If a patient regains their pulses after the use of an AED,
what should we assist with? Correct Answer ventilations
Know the major contraindications with NTG (nitroglycerin)
Correct Answer low blood pressure
erectile disfunction pills
When dealing with a possible stroke patient, what
questions are important to ask? Correct Answer "when
were they last seen normal"
When assessing a patient with agonal
respirations......what is our course of action? Correct
Answer bag them
