NSG-3850 EXAM 2 questions with answers
1.Increase of air entering the alveoli leads to hypocapnia (PaCO2 <35
mm Hg) ANS>> Hyperventilation
2.Leigionnaire's Disease is what? ANS>> A systemic illness
3.A restrictive respiratory disorder is characterized by? ANS>>
decreased residual volume
4.LDL (low density lipoprotein) level? ANS>> <130
5.HDL (High Density Lipoprotein) levels? ANS>>
M > 45 W > 55
6.Triglycerides levels? ANS>> M 40-160
W 35-135
7.pulmonary embolism (PE) s/s? ANS>> Blood clots in lungs
8.How does a pulmonary embolism (PE) occur? ANS>> From clot in venous
circulation
DVT travels up to lungs *
9.S/S of pulmonary embolism (PE) impair O2 exchange? ANS>>
Chest pain Low O2 concentration
SOB
10.chronic venous insufficiency s/s? ANS>> Edema in lower
extremities Aching pain if sit/stand for long time
Achy cramping pain
11.chronic venous insufficiency things to do to help with pain? ANS>>
Elevating legs
,AMBULATING relieves pain*
12.patho of chronic venous insufficiency? ANS>> Pools in
extremities Increases capillary pressure=edema
Leaking into tissue
13.Arterial occlusion ANS>> 4
P's: Pain Pulselessness or
absent pulse Pallor
Paresthesia
14.arterial occlusion is what? ANS>> Thrombus formation
(atherosclerosis-plaque build up)
,15.S/S of Arterial Occlusion? ANS>> Painful walking-intermittent
claudication
Sharp stabbing pain
16.How to relieve pain with arterial occlusion? ANS>> REST
Dangle depend legs below heart
17.What is pulmonary venous HTN? ANS>> Increased pressure in lungs
18.S/S of pulmonary venous HTN?
ANS>> SOB Low O2
Progressive fatigue
Cough up blood
19.what's the cause of pulmonary venous HTN? ANS>> Mitral valve stenosi
20.cause of MI? ANS>> Arteries to the heart are blocked, so no blood is
getting there.
21.What is MI? ANS>> myocardial infarction (heart attack)
22.Cause of hyperventilation?
ANS>> Pain fever
anxiety
obstructive and restrictive lung
diseases sepsis
high altitude* (normal response-compensatory mech. To decrease
PaCO2) brainstem injury
Resp. Acidosis*
, 23.Patho of hyperventilation? ANS>> Increases in air entering alveoli =
hypocapnia
24.Dx of hyperventilation? ANS>> Low CO2 <35
25.Patho of hypoventilation? ANS>> Air delivered to alveoli is insufficient
to provide O2 and remove CO2
26.What does hypoventilation result in? ANS>> Increase PaCO2 and
hypoxemia
low O2 in bloode
