ARRT CI EXAM 1 WITH COMPLETE SOLUTIONS 100%
CORRECT LATEST UPDATE
Medical Asepsis - ANSWER the absence of disease causing microorganisms.
Sterile Technique - ANSWER Sterile technique is a set of specific practices and
procedures performed to make equipment and areas free from all microorganisms and
to maintain that sterility
contact precautions - ANSWER practices used to prevent spread of disease by direct or
indirect contact
airborne precautions - ANSWER used for patients known or suspected to be infected
with pathogens transmitted by airborne droplet nuclei
droplet precautions - ANSWER Methods of infection control that must be used for
patients known or suspected to be infected with pathogens transmitted by large particle
droplets expelled during coughing, sneezing, talking, or laughing.
CDC standard precautions - ANSWER used in care of all hospitalized patients
Apply to blood, body fluids, secretions, excretions, nonintact skin, mucous membranes
transmission-based precautions - ANSWER actions taken to prevent the spread of
diseases from individuals suspected to be infected or colonized with highly
transmissible pathogens that need measures beyond standard precautions to interrupt
transmission, specifically, airborne, droplet, and contact precautions
contrast reaction - ANSWER May be mild, moderate, or severe
mild contrast reaction - ANSWER *Most occur immediately within 30 minutes
*Warm feeling during injection
, *Feel flush for 1-3 minutes
*Metallic taste in mouth
*Nausea, vomiting, or
coughing
Moderate contrast reactions - ANSWER Erythema
Uritcaria
Bronchospasms
servere contrast reactions - ANSWER
LV and pCW pressures show the diastolic pressure gradient of what valve? - ANSWER
mitral stenosis
what disease limits filling of the heart by confining the pericardium? - ANSWER
constrictive pericarditis
hemodynamic finding of constrictive pericarditis? - ANSWER discordance of LV/RV
systolic pressures during respiration.
RA pressure waveform with blunted 'y' dsecents indicates what? - ANSWER cardiac
tamponade
high pericardial filling pressure do to what blunts all waveforms? - ANSWER cardiac
tamponade
pulsus paradoxus - ANSWER beats have weaker amplitude with respiratory inspiration,
stronger with expiration
