ACUTE
B. Arterial Atherosclerotic Disease: CHRONIC
C. Venous Thrombosis and Thrombophlebitis: ACUTE
D. Venous Insufficiency/Venous Stasis: CHRONIC
Etiologies of arterial thrombosis usually include anything stimulating
___________. Right Ans - The coagulation system
Symptoms of advanced HTN are most related to what two things? Right
Ans - -Increased arterial pressure
-Increased pressure in fragile capillaries
We are more likely to see edema formation in which? (Choose all that apply)
A. Arterial Thrombosis
B. Arterial Atherosclerotic Disease
C. Venous Thrombosis/Thrombophlebitis
D. Venous Insufficiency/Venous Stasis
E. Varicose Veins
F. Hypovolemic Shock Right Ans - C. Venous
Thrombosis/Thrombophlebitis
D. Venous Insufficiency/Venous Stasis
Decreased stimulation of alpha receptors leads to ________. (decreased
vasoconstriction). Right Ans - Vasodilation
Decreased stimulation of angiotensin II receptors leads to _________. (decreased
vasoconstriction). Right Ans - Vasodilation
, Explain why the chronic manifestations of HTN occur. Right Ans - -In
response to the high pressure, endothelial intimal lining (inner walls) can
become damaged.
-So cellular proliferation and hypertrophy, then walls become stiff and
narrowed.
In which two stages of shock are the compensatory mechanisms active? What
is the difference between these two stages? Right Ans - -Non-progressive
and Progressive.
-In Progressive, the compensatory mechanisms are NOT able to maintain
adequate perfusion.
In the normal action of glucose and insulin in the body, what is the key cell
membrane receptor? Right Ans - Tyrosine Kinase receptor
What two things bind at the Tyrosine Kinase receptor? Right Ans - Insulin
and glucose
What is GLUT 4? Right Ans - -A transporter protein inactive inside the cell
in the cytoplasm.
-Activated to move to cell membrane in response to insulin on receptor.
What does GLUT 4 do? Right Ans - Activates facilitated diffusion of glucose
across the cell membrane into the cell.
