ATI Comprehensive Predictor
Cystic fibrosis - CORRECT ANSWERS-1. genetic disease on the chromosome 7
2. both parents are carriers
3. recessive mutated gene
4. autosomal recessive
Heart Failure - CORRECT ANSWERS-1. high fowler's position
2. Diuretics: decrease preload
3. Ace inhibs: reduce after load (contra if have renal failure)
4. angiotension receptor blockers (Cozaar): reduce after load (contra if have renal
failure)
5. Inotropic agents (digoxin, dopamine, dobutamine, and milronone): increase
contractility therefore increase cardiac output
6. Vasodilators (nitro, Imdur): *prevent coronary artery vasospasm and reduce preload
and afterload, decreasing myocardial oxygen demand*
7. Anticoagulants (heparin)
Psoriasis - CORRECT ANSWERS-**skin disorder that is characterized by scaly, dermal
patches and is caused by an overproduction of keratin.**
1. autoimmune disorder and has periods of exacerbations and remissions.
2. In some clients, psoriasis can also affect the joints
