QUESTIONS ACCURATE RESPONSES
◉ Dilantin is given to treat. Answer: seizure disorders
◉ DO NOT give __________ with dilantin because ________ will happen.
Answer: DO NOT give with dextrose containing solutions because it
will crystalize
◉ Which corticosteroid is usually given in insufficient adrenal
activity or hypersensitivity/inflammation reactions. Answer:
Cortisone
◉ If chronically using cortisone be sure to _____ to prevent _____..
Answer: If chronically using cortisone be sure to taper the
medications to prevent acute adrenal insufficiency
◉ This medication is a cardiac glycoside that increases contractility..
Answer: Digoxin
◉ Digoxin increases contractility by. Answer: slowing the heart rate
which decreases conduction through the AV node
,◉ What should be monitored in patients taking Digoxin?. Answer:
hypotension, bradycardia, and symptoms of toxicity
◉ Signs/Symptoms of Digoxin toxicity. Answer: nausea, yellow
vision/halo, paroxysmal atrial tachycardia (PAT with block).
◉ True/Flase:
Digoxin WILL NOT cause rapid AV conduction or hypertension.
Answer: True
◉ what medication is a antiarrhythmic that suppresses automaticity
and depolarization?. Answer: lidocaine
◉ Lidocaine is used to treat?. Answer: ventricular dysrhythmias
◉ lidocaine toxicity sign. Answer: mental confusion/change in LOC
◉ Monitor serum levels with _________. Answer: Lidocaine
◉ DO NOT give _______ medications to patients with suppressed
respirations. Answer: Narcotics (morphine, dilaudid)
, ◉ What changes on a EKG would you expect to see on a patient with
a acute MI?. Answer: ST elevation
◉ normal QRS:
Prolonged QRS indicates:. Answer: <0.12 seconds is normal QRS
prolonged QRS indicates intraventricular conduction defect,
typically a bundle branch block
◉ Distinguishing V-fib. Answer: fibrillatory waves with no
recognizable pattern
Defib the Vfib
◉ Distinguishing V-Tach. Answer: atrial rhythm and rate cannot be
identified
"Tombstones"
◉ First degree block interpretation. Answer: looks like sinus rhythm
but the PR is longer than normal. there will be 1 p for every qrs, but
the PR interval will be greater than 0.20 sec
◉ Type 1 second degree block interpretation. Answer:
"Wenckebach"
"Longer, Longer... drop" prolonged PR intervals and the missing QRS
