Blood Flow Lungs ® Pulmonary Veins ® Left Atrium ® Aorta ® Body Tissues ® Vena Cava ® Right
Atrium ® Right Ventricle ® Pulmonary Arteries ® Lungs
Symptoms with right vs left side heart blockage · Blockage on the left side of the heart backs up and causes lung symptoms
· Blockage on the right side of the heart backs up and causes body symptoms
(peripheral edema)
HNC8 HTN Guidelines Defined as 140/90
Treatment algorithm:
Less than 60 years old - 140/90
> 60 years old - Defined as 150/90 (more leniency b/c we do not want to drop
their BP too low)

and/or CKD be on?
What HTN medication should an African American pt be CCB
on?

heart failure?
Common side effects from ACE inhibitors cough, angioedema
What HTN medication is contraindicated if an ACE ARB
inhibitor caused angioedema?
, What HTN medication should a heart failure pt NEVER be CCB
on? (These cause the heart to "relax" which is not good in HF pts)
2 types of CCBs Dihydropyridines & Non-dihydropyridines
What are dihydropyridine CCBs used for? BP control
Example of a dihydropyridine CCB and side effects Amlodipine

reduced EF?
What is the percentage of EF for someone with HF with 40 or greater
preserved EF?
HF patients with reduced EF need to be on what Carvedilol, loop diuretic, ACE, or ARB
medications?
