Verified Correct Answers
Temperature normal range
35.8-37.3 C
96.4-99.1 F
How long do we have to wait to take the temperature after smoking or drinking hot/cold
liquid?
15-30 minutes
Location for pulse
Carotid, apical, brachial, radial, femoral, popliteal and pedal.
Bounding pulse force
3+
Normal pulse force
2+
Weak/thready pulse force
1+
Absent pulse force
0
Normal respiratory rate
12-20 breaths per minute
Pulse and respiratory rate are generally a ————radio
4:1
Pulse Oximetry Normal Range
95-100%
, Hypoxemia
<70%
Difference between systolic and diastolic pressure. Ex: 120-80= 40
Pulse pressure
Average pressure in a patient's arteries during one cardiac cycle
Mean arterial pressure (MAP)
A better indication of perfusion to vital
Organs than SBP
Mean arterial pressure (MAP)
How to calculate the mean arterial pressure?
diastolic pressure + 1/3 pulse pressure
Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) normal range
65-110 mmHg
normal blood pressure
less than 120/80
Elevated blodd pressure
120-129 and less than 80
Hypertension type 1
130-139/80-89
Hypertension type 2
140 or higher or 90 or higher
Hypertensive crisis
>180 and/or >120
BP level determined by:
Cardiac output
PVR
Volume of circulating blood
