how is the patient perfusing?
HR, BP, O2 - ANSWER>>>hemodynamics
you have to know your pts __________ in order to monitor and
see if they are hemodynamically stable - ANSWER>>>baseline
to monitor for O2:
Cap refill, __________ count, RR=___________ , stridor,
wheezing, coughing, auscultate - ANSWER>>>hemoglobin,
tachypnea
if baseline is 80 and HR is now 50 that would be ___________ ,
from there look at them are they symptomatic of hemodynamically
unstable (are they dizzy?) - ANSWER>>>bradycardia
blood flow:
-decreased volume of blood= _________ BP, _________HR -
ANSWER>>>decreased, increased
,70% of blood volume is in the __________ - ANSWER>>>veins
the pressure on the _______ side of the heart (pumping blood
out) is higher than the ________ side of the heart (getting blood) -
ANSWER>>>left, right
arteries: ________ resistance Veins: ____________
resistance capillaries:___________ - ANSWER>>>high,
low, exchange
the ______________ nourishes the right side of the heart -
ANSWER>>>Right Coronary Artery (RCA)
bifurcates into 2 arteries, circumflex artery and left anterior
descending (LAD) - ANSWER>>>left main artery
the left main artery is also known as the _________ because if
there is a blockage than there is no perfusion to the entire left side
of the heart - ANSWER>>>widow maker
blockages in these main arteries are what causes _______
, - blockages are due to plaques formed by __________ - greater
chance for coronary artery disease - ANSWER>>>angina,
cholesterol
increased ________= increased friction= slower blood flow -
ANSWER>>>viscosity
low blood flow might cause the HR to ___________ -
ANSWER>>>increase
the strength of the __________ of the heart maybe decreased
due to heart failure which would decrease_____________ -
ANSWER>>>contraction, blood flow
blood vessel diameter effects the blood flow
-vessel __________ = less blood flow
-vessel ___________ = more blood flow - ANSWER>>>constrict,
dilated
_________= flow (mmhg) x resistance (L/min or mL/min) -
ANSWER>>>pressure
= ease with which the fluid flows
