ACCURATE!!!
What is cystitis? What bacteria causes cystitis? - ✔✔Bladder infection. Caused by E. Coli
What is homeostasis and what are 3 main components of it? - ✔✔Equilibrium and balance within the
body. 1. Receptor, 2. Integrating center, 3. Effector.
What is homeostasis? - ✔✔Equilibrium and balance within the body.
What is intussesception? - ✔✔Mechanical bowel obstruction caused by the intestine telescoping
into itself.
What is Multiple Sclerosis? - ✔✔A progressive central nervous system disease that causes the
immune system to eat away at the protective covering of the nerves disrupting the communication
between the brain and the body.
What is oliguria? - ✔✔Production and output of abnormally small amounts of urine.
What is osteoporosis? - ✔✔Progressive loss of bone calcium that leaves the bones brittle.
What is passive immunity? - ✔✔IgG - short term immunity as the result of introduction to antibodies
from another person or animal such as with breast milk. Also, can cross placenta to protect fetus from
infection.
What is Polycythemia? - ✔✔A rare, chronic disorder involving the overproduction of red blood cells
in the bone marrow, may produce more WBCs and platelets as well.
What is reperfusion injury? - ✔✔Tissue damage caused when blood supply returns to the tissue after
a period of ischemia or lack of oxygen.
What is sepsis? - ✔✔Infection that has spread from one part of the body into the blood stream.
What is sepsis? Goal of treatment? - ✔✔The body's extreme response to an infection where
chemicals are released into the bloodstream to fight them infection, triggering inflammation of the
blood throughout the body.
Goal of treatment is to use IV antibiotics and fluids to treat originating infection, use supportive
measures to correct vitals abnormalities, and maintain organ system function.
What is septic shock? - ✔✔Widespread infection that can cause organ failure and dangerously low
blood pressure.
What is SIADH? - ✔✔Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone Secretion - causes the body
to make too much ADH and the body to retain too much water.
What is Sickle Cell Disease? What are the S/S? - ✔✔Genetic disorder causing RBCs to contort and
misshape into a sickle shape where they burst and breakdown leaving a shortage of RBCs and can
cause a block in blood flow.
S/S include pain of the body and joints and sudden in the chest, dizziness, fatigue, low oxygen levels,
inability to make concentrated or dilute urine, blood in urine, inflamed fingers or toes, pallor, SOB,
and jaundice.
What is Tension Pneumothorax? - ✔✔A collapsed lung caused by air leaking into the space between
the lungs and chest wall.
, What is the backward effect of Right Sided Heart Failure? - ✔✔Right sided ventricular failure and
leads to an excess accumulation of fluid in the body and edema, called anasarca. Initially seen with
swelling in the feet or legs and causing more frequent urination during the night.
What is the cause of barrel chest? - ✔✔Occurs when the lungs become chronically overinflated with
air, forcing the rib cage to stay expanded for long periods of time.
What is the cause of Cushing's Disease? - ✔✔Chronic high levels of glucocorticoids, usually cortisol.
Increased pituitary production of ACTH, typically as a result of pituitary adenoma.
What is the cause of Gout? - ✔✔High levels of Uric Acid forming accumulation of urate crystals in the
joint (hyperuricemia)
What is the cause of prerenal kidney injury? - ✔✔AKI is caused by a sudden reduction in blood flow
to the kidney leading to loss of kidney function. Nothing is wrong with the kidney itself.
What is the difference between stable and unstable angina? - ✔✔Stable angina - Symptoms occur
during moderate physical activity or when you are pushing yourself physically and go away with rest
or medication.
Unstable angina - Symptoms occur while doing very little or while resting.
What is the difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus? - ✔✔Type 1 - insulin dependent
and juvenile onset is typical
Type 2 - non-insulin dependent (insulin resistant) and adult onset typical
What is the Glasgow Coma Scale and what does it measure? - ✔✔Assesses responsiveness by
measuring eye opening, motor, and verbal responses.
What is the goal of anemia treatment? - ✔✔To restore the hemodynamics of the vascular system
and to replace lost red blood cells by using mineral and vitamin supplements, blood transfusions,
vasopressors, histamine antagonists, and glucocorticosteroids.
What is the process of moving air into the lungs called? - ✔✔Inspiration (inhalation)
What is the purpose of dialysis for a patient with kidney disease? - ✔✔It removes waste, salt, and
extra water to prevent build up in the body to maintain safe levels of potassium, sodium, and
bicarbonate since the kidneys are not able to perform this function anymore.
What is the RAAS system? - ✔✔The Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone system regulates blood pressure
and fluid and electrolyte balance, as well as systemic vascular resistance.
Abnormal functioning of the parathyroid glands can lead to which electrolyte imbalance? -
✔✔Calcium and phosphorous
Best way to prevent spread of diseases? - ✔✔Proper hand washing.
Cause of brain damage in Cerebral Palsy and when does it happen? - ✔✔Damage occurs during the
prenatal period, often during childbirth, or in the first 3 years of life. This is caused by a prenatal
disturbance (genetic or environmental factors) of brain cell migration during brain development.
Cause of cardiogenic shock? - ✔✔Fluid buildup in the chest causing cardiac tamponade, internal
bleeding or blood loss, pulmonary embolism, trauma or injury to the chest causing damage to the
heart so that it no longer pumps blood effectively.
Cause of contact dermatitis? - ✔✔Direct exposure to an irritant or allergen-producing substance.
Cause of CVA and the gold standard for diagnosis? - ✔✔Ischemic Stroke - Blocked artery
