Priority treatment and action for a Aortic dissection - ANSWER--Control BP, aim for a
systolic 100-200Hg
-Establish 2 large bore IV's and start fluids as ordered rate, as well as other necessary
meds
-Prepare for surgery
Treatment & nursing care for Aortic dissection - ANSWER--Medications such as beta
blockers, antihypertensive, analgesics, blood products
-Aneurysmectomy
-Endovascular stent grafts
-Abdominal aortic repair
Risk factors for Atherosclerosis - ANSWER--Age
-Genetics/ Ethnicity
-Hyperlipidemia (High LDL & Low HDL)
-DM
-Obesity, Sedentary life, Smoking
Diets for Atherosclerosis patients - ANSWER-Dash diet
Vegetables, Fruit, Whole grain, Low fat free diary, Fish, poulty, bean, nuts, vegetable
oils,
Limit foods high in sugar, high in saturated fat like fat meats
Discharge education for Atherosclerosis patients - ANSWER--Focus on Diet and
managment of HDL and LDL
Asystole priority action - ANSWER-Compressions
Atrial fibrillation complications - ANSWER-•Can impair QoL
•Linked to major morbidity and mortality - especially clotting concerns - embolic stroke,
DVT, or PE
•Disorganized atrial impulses create 'quivers' to atria
•There is no atrial kick
•Ventricular contracts are irregularly usually at a rate of 120-200
•This irregularity increases cardiac blood pooling, increasing risk of clot formation
