Sinus Arrhythmia
Give this one a try later!
-SA node creates impulse irregular rhythm
-P before every QRS
-T after every QRS
-R waves dont "march out"
-P waves dont "march out"
-HR variable
, -QRS complex much bigger than p-wave bc of mass; ventricles bigger than
atria
How are arrhythmias diagnosed
Give this one a try later!
By analysis of electropgraphic waveform
Assessment/diagnostic finding with HTN
Give this one a try later!
-History & physical
-eye exam
-UA, BMP, lipids, Ecg, echo (lab studies assessing organ damage)
-IV pyelography (kidneys)
-renal studies
When should you tx someone for Bradycardia
Give this one a try later!
if they are symptomatic (meds or pacing)
Q in PQRST
,Give this one a try later!
-Quality/Quantity
-What does it feel like?
-Want their own words to describe pain (allow them time)
-Sharp, dull, stabbing, burning, crushing, throbbing, nauseating, etc
Secondary Raynoud
Give this one a try later!
-can be seen with immune disorders like scleroderma, lupus and RA
Altered coagulation
Give this one a try later!
-Occurs most commonly in pt home anticoagulant meds have been
abruptly withdrawn
-oral contraceptive use
-elevated CPR levels and several blood abnormal can lead to
hypercaogulability with prevalence depending on ethnicity
Myocardium
Give this one a try later!
, -Muscle fibers
-Responsible for pumping
-Myocardial infarction
HTN diagnosis
Give this one a try later!
-Systolic pressure greater than 140 mm Hg
-2 or more measurements 1-4 weeks apart
Sinus bradycardia
Give this one a try later!
-SA node create impulse slower than normal
-P before every QRS
-T after every QRS
-R waves "march out"
-P waves "march out"
-HR <60
Home care prevention of DVT-
