Select all that apply.
A) Percutaneous coronary intervention to recanalize an occluded
coronary artery
B) heparin is used in conjunction with fibrinolytics and PCI to
reduce the risk of thrombosis.
C) Clopidogrel [Plavix] suppresses platelet aggregation by
blocking receptors for adenosine diphosphate: These drugs are
recommended for all MI patients undergoing PCI.
- Correct Answer -
All answers are correct
,Which of the following are included in treatment of a STEMI?
Select all that apply.
A) Administer intravenous morphine
B) Administer aspirin 325 mg PO
C) Administer Beta blockers
- Correct Answer -
All answers are correct
Nursing Care for Deficiency Anemia Agents - Therapeutic goal
- Correct Answer -
Prevention or treatment of iron deficiency anemias.
Nursing Care for Deficiency Anemia Agents- Baseline data
- Correct Answer -
Assess patient for: fatigue, listlessness, and pallor indicate mild
anemia; dyspnea, tachycardia, and angina suggest severe
anemia.
Laboratory findings indicative of anemia are subnormal
hemoglobin levels, subnormal hematocrit, subnormal hemosiderin
in bone marrow, and the presence of microcytic, hypochromic
erythrocytes.
,Nursing Care for Deficiency Anemia Agents - Ongoing evaluations
and interventions
- Correct Answer -
- Evaluate treatment by monitoring hematologic status.
- Reticulocyte counts should increase within 4 to 7 days,
hemoglobin content and the hematocrit should begin to rise within
1 week, and hemoglobin levels should rise by at least 2 gm/dL
within 1 month.
- If these responses do not occur, evaluate the patient for
adherence, persistent bleeding, inflammatory disease, and
malabsorption.
Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs)
- Correct Answer -
a group of second-generation antidepressant drugs that increase
serotonin activity specifically, without affecting other
neurotransmitters
MOA and Therapeutic use of Fluoxetine (SSRI)
, - Correct Answer -
MOA: SSRIs selectively block neuronal reuptake of serotonin (5-
hydroxytryptamine [5-HT]), a monoamine neurotransmitter.
Therapeutic use: Fluoxetine is used primarily for major
depression. Additionally, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive
disorder, panic disorder, bulimia nervosa, and premenstrual
dysphoric disorder
Unlabeled uses include post-traumatic stress disorder, social
phobia, alcoholism, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder,
migraine, and Tourette's syndrome.
ACE inhibitors are important drugs for treating:
- Correct Answer -
hypertension, heart failure, diabetic nephropathy, MI
Adverse effects of ACE inhibitors
- Correct Answer -
first dose hypotension
cough
hyperkalemia
renal failure
