if a patient is diagnosed with hypertension stage 1 is there a need for lifestyle modification? (pharm pg. 335): yes
if the risk is less than 10% for a patient with stage 1 hypertension should there be an initial drug prescribed? (pharm pg.
355): no, a healthy lifestyle should be recommended
if the risk is more than 10% for a patient with stage 1 hypertension should there be an initial drug prescribed? (pharm pg.
355): yes
what drugs should be administered for a patient with stage 1 hypertension? (4)
(pharm pg. 355): ACEI- ACE inhibitor
ARB- angiotensin receptor blockers
CCB- calcium channel blockers
Diuretic
what drugs are more frequently used to treat hypertension? (4) (pharm pg. 356): ACE inhibitors
ARB's
CCB's
Diuretics
,are the agents of hypertensive drugs always used alone? (pharm pg. 356): no, some are used alone or in combination with
other agents from different classes working by different mechanisms
why are agents used in combination with other agents from different classes? (pharm pg. 356): to optimize therapy while
reducing adverse effects of medicines
what should patients with high BP and heart failure, and chronic kidney disease take? (2)
(pharm pg. 357): ACE inhibitors
ARB'S
can a patient just stop taking their beta- adrenergic blocker medication suddenly? (pharm pg. 363): no, it must be be
talked over with a healthcare provider 26. what could happen if a patient suddenly discontinues their beta- adrenergic
blocker medication? (pharm pg. 363): exacerbation of anginal symptoms and in some cases even a myocardial infarction
27 before a patient takes a beta- adrenergic blocker what must the nurse do? (pharm pg. 363): 1. check patient history for
type 1 diabetes, heart failure, or peripheral vascular disease, if so must speak to the healthcare provider
2. obtain blood pressure and apical pulse, if the patient appears to be hypotensive or bradycardia contact the prescriber
what is a common adverse effect of ACE inhibitors, related to the heart?
(pharm pg. 366): orthostatic hypotension
what are some common signs of orthostatic hypotension? (3) (pharm pg 366): dizziness
weakness faintness
if a patient is taking ACE inhibitors in what 2 positions should their blood pressure be taken? (pharm pg. 366): supine
and standing
what development should be anticipated in a patient taking ACE inhibitors related to the heart? (pharm pg. 366): postural
hypotension
, what should the nurse teach the patients taking ACE inhibitors when it comes to rising and sitting positions? (pharm pg.
366): rise slowly from a supine or sitting position and to sit or lie down if feeling faint
what are ARB's? (pharm pg. 367): class of antihypertensive agents
what do ARB's act by? (pharm pg. 367): by binding to angiotensin II receptor sites
what do ARB's block? (pharm pg. 367): the very potent vasoconstrictor from binding to the angiotensin II type 1 receptor
site
what are ARB's used for? (pharm pg. 368): lowering blood pressure 37. what is a common adverse effect of angiotensin
II receptor blockers, related to the heart? (pharm pg. 368): orthostatic hypotension
what are beta adrenergic blockers used for? (pharm pg. 363): reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with
hypertension and widely used as antihypertensives
A patient is diagnosed with hypertension. What is the initial recommendation for this patient likely to be?
Beta-adrenergic blocking agent
Diuretic
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor
Diet and exercise: diet and exercise
what is the purpose of diuretics?: reduce hypertension and edema
what are the two types of lipoproteins?: HDL and LDL
what are lipoproteins?: any kind of fat transporter
which lipoproteins are good?: HDL (think of HIGH quality)
44 which lipoproteins are bad?: LDL (think of LOW quality)
