Hondros 205 EXAM QUESTIONS COMPLETE
WITH DETAILED VERIFIED ANSWERS (100%
CORRECT ANSWERS) ALREADY GRADED A+
normal potassium levels - ANSWER-3.5-5.0 mEq/L
normal chloride levels - ANSWER-95-105 mEq/L
Normal sodium levels - ANSWER-135-145 mEq/L
Normal HCO3 - ANSWER-22-26 mEq/L
PaC02 Normal range - ANSWER-35 to 45 mmHg
A primary respiratory problem is determined if the PaC02 is less than 35mmHg (alkalosis) or greater
than 45 mmHg (acidosis)
abdominal distention - ANSWER-Occurs when substances, such as air (gas) or fluid, accumulate in the
abdomen causing its outward expansion beyond the normal girth of the stomach and waist
Chvostek's sign - ANSWER-Cheek, facial spasm when Cheek is tapped associates with hypocalcemia
PaC02 - ANSWER-partial pressure of carbon dioxide
HC03 - ANSWER-Concentration of hydrogen carbonate in blood. Used with ph and c02 source of acid
base imbalance
Neck vein distention - ANSWER-is a sign of increased central venous pressure due to the right-side heart
failure.
hypotonic solution - ANSWER-Solute concentration is less than that inside the cell; cell gains water.
Osmosis occurs
, What causes osmosis? - ANSWER-hypotonic to hypertonic solution
hypotonic solution - ANSWER-0.45 sodium chloride
Ischemia - ANSWER-an inadequate blood supply to an organ or part of the body, especially the heart
muscles.
Hypoxia - ANSWER-deficiency in the amount of oxygen reaching the tissues
anoxia - ANSWER-lack of oxygen. can be one particular part of the body, and a widespread injury.
hypoxemia - ANSWER-decreased level of oxygen in the arterial blood
Simogyi effect - ANSWER-rebound hyperglycemia. occurs at night after bed.
hypoglycemia treatment - ANSWER-immediate ingestion of 15-20g quick acting carbohydrates; wait 15
minutes, repeat if needed
gas exchange - ANSWER-Breathing, transport of gases, and exchange of gases with tissue cells; Provides
O2 for cellular respiration and removes its waste product, CO2
Perfusion - ANSWER-Circulation of blood within an organ or tissue in adequate amounts to meet current
needs of the cells.
Ventilation - ANSWER-movement of air in and out of the lungs
Room air is what % oxygen? - ANSWER-21%
Transport in gas exchange - ANSWER-occurs during respiration normally by diffusion
