Toxoids - *Tetanus, Pertussis and Diphtheria
Normal Blood pressure - ANSWERS-120/80
HTN 140/90
,Blood sugar - ANSWERS-70-130 mg/dL
BNP - ANSWERS-↑ indicates heart failure
Angioma - ANSWERS-benign tumors derived from cells of the vascular or
lymphatic vessel walls (endothelium) or derived from cells of the tissues
surrounding these vessels
Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome - ANSWERS-Starts with Acute lung
injury/insult (ALI)
First Stage→Respiratory Alkalosis→hyperventilation
Intermediate stage→ACIDOSIS Respiratory→ hypoventilation and Metabolic K⁺
cell breakdown
Intermediate stage→PULMONARY EDEMA →cell breakdown turns on
inflammatory response
Intermediate state→BLOOD CLOTTING platelets responds to inflammation further
blocking perfusion
Late stage→RESPIRATORY FAILURE continued acidosis
Autonomic Dysreflexia - ANSWERS-is an abnormal cardiovascular response to
stimulation of the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system; occurs
as a result of stimulation of the bladder, large intestine, or other visceral organs
not being able to send correct signals
,Acquired Immunity types - ANSWERS-Naturally Acquired
