NRSG 2500 Exam #4 Questions With Complete Solutions
Afterload Correct Answer Resistance to ejection of blood
from the ventricle; systemic or pulmonary vascular resistance
Automaticity Correct Answer Ability to initiate an electrical
impulse
Can the heart initiate the impulse on its own autonomously or
does it need help?
Best way to vagual a kid Correct Answer Ask them to blow in
a straw
Biobrane Dressing Correct Answer DO NOT REMOVE
Trim edges when necessary
Surgeon ALWAYS removes
DO NOT reinforce, remove, or rewrap
Used on only partial thickness burns
cardiac conduction system Correct Answer SA → AV →
Bundle of His → Right & Left Bundle Branches → Purkinje
Fibers
Cardiac Output Correct Answer The amount of blood pumped
by each ventricle during a given period
Conductivity Correct Answer Ability to transmit an electrical
impulse from one cell to another
Electrical conductors transmit electricity in machinery - the
heart's the same way. Can the cells act as tiny conductors?
, Healing process for burns Correct Answer Inflammation:
Begins immediately when burn occurs
Proliferation: Begins 2-3 days post burn
Remodeling: May last for years
How discern V-fib from V-tach Correct Answer V-fib is
irregular
