When mixing insulin - ANSWER- roll vials between hands instead of shaking them to
mix suspension.
When drawing up insulin - ANSWER- - only use insulin syringes
When administering diuretics, what is the primary potential electrolyte imbalance to
monitor? - ANSWER- Potassium
What gauge needle do you you to administer blood to an adult - ANSWER- 18-20
gauge
What can happen is you administer potassium to fast - ANSWER- circulatory overload
-Vital signs are significantly lower than during waking hours.
Urinary retention - ANSWER- - inability to partially completely empty the bladder
Type 2: these symptoms may be less marked, no early symptoms, the disease is only
diagnosed several year after it onset, when complication are already present.
Type 2 diabetes - ANSWER- Non-insulin dependent or adult onset diabetes
Type 2 diabetes - ANSWER- - Most common type: 90% of all case
Type 1 diabetes - ANSWER- -Lack of insulin production or production of defective
insulin
Type 1 diabetes - ANSWER- insulin dependent
Treatment for wound evisceration - ANSWER- Is a surgical emergency, immediately
place damp sterile gauze over the site, contact the surgical team, do not allow the
patient anything by mouth, observe for signs and symptoms of shock, and prepare the
patent for emergency surgery.
Treatment for hypercalcemia - ANSWER- is promoting urinary excretion of calcium by
administering loop diuretic (Lasix) and hydrating the patient with isotonic saline infusion.
The patient must drink 3000 to 4000 mL of fluid daily to promote renal excretion of
calcium and decrease the possibility of kidney stone formation.
The only insulin product that can be given by IV bolus, IV infusion, or even IM -
ANSWER- Short-acting: Regular insulin (Humulin R)
The most effective way to control transmission of infection - ANSWER- Hand Hygiene
Symptoms for Diabetes - ANSWER- Type 1:
Summarize major drug effects of loop diuretics (Lasix) - ANSWER- produce a potent
diuresis and subsequent loss of fluid. The resulting decreased fluid volume leads to
decreased return of blood to the heart or decreased filling pressures. This has the
following cardiovascular effects:
Stages 1: NREM - ANSWER- - stages last a few minutes
Stage 4: NREM - ANSWER- - stage last approximately 15 to 30 minutes
Stage 3: NREM - ANSWER- - stage last 15 to 30 minutes
Stage 2: NREM - ANSWER- - stage last 10 to 20 minutes
Specific gravity of urine - ANSWER- 1.0053-1.030
Sliding- scale insulin dosing - ANSWER- - SQ rapid acting (lispro or aspart) or short-
acting (regular) insulin are adjusted according to blood glucose test results
Sleep apnea - ANSWER- is a disorder characterized by the lack of airflow through the
nose and mouth for periods of 10 seconds or longer during sleep. The major risk factors
for OSA are obesity and hypertension.
Situational loss - ANSWER- Sudden, unpredictable external events
Situational crisis - ANSWER- External sources such a job change, motor vehicle crash,
death, or severe illness provoke situational crisis.
, Serous - ANSWER- clear, water plasma
Serosanguineous - ANSWER- pale, pink, watery; mixture of clear and red fluid
Sensory stimuli such as nose easily arouse person
SBAR - ANSWER- Situation
Sanguineous - ANSWER- bright red; indicates active bleeding
Safety guidelines for oxygenation - ANSWER- - patient with sudden changes in their
vital signs, level of consciousness, or behavior are possibly experiencing profound
hypoxia
ROME
Respiratory alkalosis treatment - ANSWER- oxygen therapy, anxiety reduction
intervention, and rebreathing techniques
Respiratory alkalosis - ANSWER- - arise from alveolar hyperventilation
Respiratory acidosis treatment - ANSWER- oxygen therapy, maintain patient airway,
and enhance gas exchange (positioning and breathing techniques, ventilatory support,
bronchodilators, mucolytics)
Respiratory acidosis - ANSWER- - arise from alveolar hypoventilation
REM Sleep - ANSWER- - stage usually begins about 90 minutes after sleep has begun
Recommended doses - ANSWER- IV:
Recommendation
Rapid acting insulin - ANSWER- Humalog - covers insulin needs for meals eat at the
same time as the injection. This type of insulin is often used with long acting insulin
Purulent - ANSWER- thick, yellow, green, tan, brown
Pressure ulcer classifications - ANSWER- - stage 1: no open areas
Pre-diabetic lab values: IGT and IFG - ANSWER- A diagnosis of impaired glucose
tolerance (IGT) is made if the 2 hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) values are 140-
190 mg/dL.
Pre diabetes is defined as - ANSWER- impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), imparied
fasting glucose (IFG), or both. It is an intermediate stage between normal glucose
homeostasis and diabetes where the blood glucose levels are elevated, but not high
enough to meet the diagnostic criteria for diabetes.
Postvoid residual (PVR) - ANSWER- is the amount of unite left in the bladder after
voiding and is measured either by ultrasound or straight cauterization.
PO:
Physiological factors affecting Oxygenation - ANSWER- - decreased oxygen carrying
capacity
Physical dependence - ANSWER- a state of adaptation that is manifested by a drug
class- specific withdrawal syndrome produced by abrupt cessation, rapid dose
reduction, decreasing blood level of the drug, and/or administration of an antagonist.
Phlebitis - ANSWER- inflammation of inner layer of a vein
pH of urine - ANSWER- 4.6-8
Perceived loss - ANSWER- is uniquely defined by the person experiencing the loss and
is less obvious to other people. For example, some people perceive rejection by a friend
to a loss
Peak action for regular insulin - ANSWER- 2-5 hours
Patient should fast, meaning no caloric intake for at least 8 hours.
Papular - ANSWER- Raised
mix suspension.
When drawing up insulin - ANSWER- - only use insulin syringes
