Nurs 251 Study guide- Questions and Correct
Solutions
stress incontinence
loss of urine associated with increased intra-abdominal pressure during sneezing, coughing,
lifting. Quantity of urine lost is usually small
urge continence
Involuntary loss of urine associated with a strong urge to void
overflow incontinence
Inability to empty bladder resulting in overdistension and frequent loss of small amounts of urine
functional incontinence
Incontinence resulting from physical, environmental, or psychosocial causes
partial seizure
activation of only a restricted part of one cerebral hemisphere with no alteration in consciousness
absence seizure
Sudden brief cessation of all motor activity accompanied by blank stare and unresponsiveness
complex partial seizure
consciousness is impaired and the person may engage in repetitive, non-purposeful activity such
as lip smacking or picking at clothes
tonic-clonic seizure
, sudden loss of consciousness, sharp, tonic muscular contractions, loss of postural control, person
falls in opisthotonic position. Muscles rigid, arms and legs extended, jaw clenched. Urinary
incontinence common
Ischaemic stroke
Blood supply to brain suddenly disrupted by a thrombus
Haemorrhagic stroke
blood vessel breaks open, spilling blood into spaces surrounded by neurons
What is TURP syndrome?
FVE plus hyponatraemia, reduced haematocrit, HT, bradycardia, nausea, confusion resulting
from absorption of irrigating fluids during and after surgery
Example of prerenal AKI
Sepsis
Example of intrarenal AKI
Acute pyelonephritis
Example of postrenal AKI
calculi
CV manifestations of fluid volume deficit
Tachycardia, flat neck veins
Neurological manifestations of fluid volume deficit
