West Coast EMT block 2 study guide
Three types of muscle tissues - ANS-skeletal (voluntary muscle)
easy (involuntary)
cardiac muscle
53 BASH (for nitro) - ANS-5min
3 dose
Blood pressure of one hundred systole
Altered level of cognizance
Sexually greater pills
Head accidents
9 rights of medicine management - ANS-Right patient, medication (allergic reactions), time,
direction, dose, motive, documentation, shape, response
A BVM bag will hold among _____ and _____ mL of air. - ANS-1000 and 1600
Abdominal hollow space - ANS-Contains belly, intestines, spleen, and liver, and different
organs
Albuterol - ANS-Proventil, Ventolin, Proair
Alkalosis - ANS-The buildup of excess base (loss of acids) inside the body fluids. PH >
7.Forty five
Alupent - ANS-metaproterenol (Bronchodilator)
Anaphylactic surprise - ANS-A intense reaction that takes place while an allergen is brought
to the bloodstream of an allergic man or woman. Characterized with the aid of
bronchoconstriction, labored respiration, great vasodilation, circulatory shock, and every so
often unexpected demise.
BVM - ANS-bag valve masks; 15 L/min of a hundred% oxygen
BVM's must have a extent of at least _____mL for newborns and babies. - ANS-500 (Child
BVM)
Capnography - ANS-A noninvasive technique to fast and successfully provide information on
a patient's ventilatory popularity, move, and metabolism; correctly measures the
concentration of carbon dioxide in expired air through the years.
Cardiac output - ANS-Heart fee x stroke extent, the overall performance of the heart
, Cardiac tamponade - ANS-acute compression of the coronary heart caused by fluid
accumulation in the pericardial cavity
Cardiogenic surprise - ANS-Shock because of inadequate characteristic of the heart, or
pump failure.
Cause of surprise - ANS-- pump failure: cardiogenic/ obstructive schock
- negative vessel characteristic: disruptive shock
- low fluid extent: Hypovolemic shock
Central chemoreceptors - ANS-brainstem neurons that respond to modifications in pH of
cerebrospinal fluid
Located inside the medulla
Increase RR and tidal quantity to do away with CO2
Primary mechanism of respiratory
Compensated surprise - ANS-The early stage of surprise, wherein the body can still atone
for blood loss.
COPD (continual obstructive pulmonary sickness) - ANS-ailment with enlarged lung spaces,
usually from smoking can reason shortness of breath
Tx:
assist with prescribed inhaler
Position of comfort
Transport right away
CPAP (continuous advantageous airway strain) - ANS-When it's constantly nice, it manner
there is air constantly being driven in, in this situation to assist hold those alveolar sacs
inflated
DDICE - ANS-Drug
Dose
Integrity
Clarity/Concentration
Expiration
decompensate shock - ANS-Late stage, blood pressure is falling
Dermis - ANS-Inner layer of skin
Diffusion - ANS-the process through which molecules move from an area of better
awareness to an area of decrease concentration
distributive surprise - ANS-A condition that happens when there's massive dilation of the
small arterioles, small venules, or both.
Dyspnea - ANS-tough or labored respiration; shortness of breath
