118 Multiple choice questions
Definition 1 of 118
ST elevation in two leads
Ischemia
Stemi
Type Ii
Dvt
Definition 2 of 118
A T wave that is peaking or flattening out suggests an issue with what electrolyte?
potassium
magnesium
sodium
calcium
Definition 3 of 118
Sudden onset of polyuria, polydipsia and polyphagia. May have sudden weight loss and
ketoacidosis.
Contrast Phlebography
Defibrillation (V.Fib --> D.Fib)
Proper administration of blood.
Clinical manifestations of Type I
,Definition 4 of 118
What do oral diabetic agents do?
Onset 1 hour
No Peak
24 hours
Clear, never mix
SQ insulin starts, patient can eat and bicarb levels are 15-18 mEq/L
enhance cellular sensitivity to insulin
stimulate release of insulin
too much insulin
too little good
excessive physical activity
Term 5 of 118
Ketones
Only used for ventricular fibrillation and pulseless ventricular tachycardia. Silences/stops
the heart for a moment allowing the SA node the opportunity to resume control of
contraction.
If we have a QRS with no P wave before it, this means that the SA node did not cuase that
particular QRS. We may suspect what condition?
"average of two or more accurate bp measurements are taken during two or more contacts
with a healthcare provider" systolic pressure >140 mm Hg or diastolic >90 mm Hg
By products of fat breakdown for energy when the body cannot utilize glucose. Their
presence in the urin indicates a deficiency of insulin and control of Type I diabetes is
deteriorating.
,Definition 6 of 118
Management of Hypoglycemia in ER or hospital
Administer oral glucose tablets every hour
Provide a high carbohydrate meal immediately
IVP 25-50 cc D50, D50W as fast a possible
Wait for the Patient To recover naturally without intervention
Term 7 of 118
Reverse acidosis with insulin -- inhibits fat breakdown and ends ketone production.
Hypertensive crisis with target organ damage >180/>120.
Main clinical features of DKA
Causes of hypoglycemia
Third correction in DKA.

ABI - Patients with mild claudication
1.10 - 0.80
0.95 - 0.70
0.90 -0.50
0.40 - 0.20
, Term 9 of 118
Ulcers development
CNS is so impaired that the patient needs the assistance of another person for treatment:
disoriented, seizures, difficulty arousing from sleep and LOC
erythema and warmth
edema in dependent position
wet irregular, shallow wounds that are typically large
weeping
hemosidorous staining (stasis dermatitis)
diminished pulses
thickening and scaling of skin
minimal pain
neuropathy
Slow onset with polyuria, polydipsia and polyphagia. Fatigue, weakness, vision changes,
tingling and numbness in hands (peripheral neuropathy), dry skin, slow healing skin lesions
or wounds, recurrent infections (including vaginal yeast)
faulty one-way valves leading to congestion in the capillaries producing trapping of white
cells and enzymes that causes macromolecules to burst and leak into dermal tissues
Term 10 of 118

ABI - Patients with ischemic rest pain
Serum bicarb level for DKA
ABI - Patients with mild claudication
