Medications & Emergency Care (2025)
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)
