Answers
Pericarditis is inflammation of the pericardium resulted in injury/inflammation.
Symptoms are pain and exudate. - CORRECT ANSWER What is pericarditis how
does it occur, what are the signs and symptoms?
Coronary artery disease is caused by impaired coronary blood flow. i.e.
atherosclerosis which is a buildup of plaque that is made up of
cholesterol/arteriosclerosis. - CORRECT ANSWER What is coronary artery disease?
- CORRECT ANSWER What is a myocardial infarct?
- CORRECT ANSWER What are come complications of an MI?
Stable angina is fine as long as the person does not put extra stress on the heart. -
CORRECT ANSWER Stable angina
Occurs during rest, nocturnal 12-8 am (coronary spasm). - CORRECT ANSWER
Variant angina (Prinz Mentals)
Troponin, myoglobin, creatine, kinase - CORRECT ANSWER What are the cardiac
serum markers
Heart failure
,Pericarditis
Thromboembolic
Rupture of the heart.
Leaves behind an area of yellow Necrosis scar, area with no blood flow. This area is
dead muscle and doesn't beat. This will provide an abnormal ECG. - CORRECT
ANSWER What are some complications of an acute MI.
Relative uncommon life-threatening infection of the endocardium. This is caused
by acute staph aureus. - CORRECT ANSWER Infective Endocarditis
Group A beta streptococcus (rheumatic fever). This causes mitral stenosis. -
CORRECT ANSWER Rheumatic heart disease
Stenosis: Valve will not open all the way; it is harder to force blood through it.
Regurgitation: valve will not close all the way; it leaks when it should be closed. -
CORRECT ANSWER Valve defects
If a valve is stenotic, you will hear a murmur during diastole.
If a valve is regurgitant, you will hear a murmur during systole. - CORRECT
ANSWER When will you hear murmurs?
Murmurs heard in systole: Aortic stenosis and mitral regurgitation.
Murmurs heard in diastole: Mitral stenosis and aortic regurgitation. - CORRECT
ANSWER Valvular disorders
, Heard best in diastole causes fatigue, dyspnea, and palpitations. Blood from LA to
LV decreases -> decreased C.O.->backs up from LA to pulmonary system. Can
cause pulmonary edema or hypertension. Because of the high pressure in the
pulmonary system the left atria enlarges and right ventricular failure occurs. -
CORRECT ANSWER Mitral Stenosis (Rheumatic fever)
Heard best in systole. The blood from the LV regurgitates into the LA and
decreases C.O. Blood backs up in the LA and moves into the pulmonary system.
Pulmonary congestion and RV failure can occur. - CORRECT ANSWER Mitral
regurgitation
Struvite - CORRECT ANSWER What type of urinary calculus may grow when
increased bacterial pathogens are present as in an infection?
Kidney stones - CORRECT ANSWER Which condition is a cause of an upper urinary
tract obstruction?
Pyelonephritis - CORRECT ANSWER __________ is an infection of one or both
upper urinary tracts (ureter, renal pelvis, and kidney interstitial)
Escherichia coli - CORRECT ANSWER Which bacteria is the most common cause of
urinary tract infections?
- Degree of completeness of the blockage
- Cause of the lesion
- Location of the blockage
- Duration of the blockage - CORRECT ANSWER Which are determinants of the
severity for obstructive uropathy?
