Galantamine hydrobromide (Razadyne, Razadyne ER): Indications & Similar to what drug?
Ans>> Galantamine hydrobromide (Razadyne, Razadyne ER) is similar to donepezil in its action.
Indications include mild to moderate dementia.
Galantamine hydrobromide (Razadyne, Razadyne ER): Contraindications & Common Adverse
Effects
Ans>> Contraindications include severe hepatic or renal impairment.
.The most common adverse effects are insomnia, tremor, dizziness, somnolence, headache,
bradycardia, and syncope.
What are some S & S of Peptic Ulcer Disease?
Ans>> Many patients with peptic ulcers have no signs or symptoms. These silent peptic ulcers
most commonly occur in older adults and those taking aspirin and other NSAIDs
As a rule, the patient with an ulcer complains of dull, gnawing pain or a burning sensation in the
mid epigastrium or the back. Other nonspecific symptoms of either gastric ulcers or duodenal
ulcers may include pyrosis vomiting, constipation or diarrhea, and bleeding. These symptoms are
1
,often accompanied by sour eructation (burping), which is common when the patient's stomach is
empty.
What is the Onset, Peak, & Duration of Regular Insulin?
Ans>> Onset 30-60min
Peak 2-3 hours
Duration 4-6 hours
Usually give 20-30 minutes before meal. May be taken alone or in combination with longer-
acting insulin
What is wound dehiscence & evisceration?
Ans>> Wound dehiscence is a disruption of a surgical incision or wound.
Evisceration is a protrusion of wound contents and serious surgical complications.
Dehiscence and evisceration are especially serious when they involve abdominal incisions or
wounds. They may also occur because of increasing age, anemia, poor nutritional status, obesity,
malignancy, diabetes, the use of steroids, and other factors in patients undergoing abdominal
surgery.An abdominal binder can provide support and guard against dehiscence and may be
used along with the primary dressing, especially in patients with weak or pendulous abdominal
walls or when rupture of a wound has occurred.
2
,What is ulcerative colitis?
Ans>> A chronic ulcerative and inflammatory disease of the mucosal and submucosal layers of
the colon and rectum that is characterized by unpredictable periods of remission and
exacerbation with bouts of abdominal cramps and bloody or purulent diarrhea. The inflammatory
changes typically begin in the rectum and progress proximally through the colon
What type of steroids do you use for asthma?
Ans>> Glucocorticoids are a class of medication that has anti-inflammatory properties.
Glucocorticoids can be taken in different forms, including with an inhaler, as a pill, or through an
IV. A spacer should be used with inhaled corticosteroids, and patients should rinse their mouths
after administration to prevent thrush, a common complication associated with the use of inhaled
corticosteroids. A systemic preparation may be used to gain rapid control of the disease; to
manage severe, persistent asthma; to treat moderate to severe exacerbations; to accelerate
recovery; and to prevent recurrence.
What is Type 1 Diabetes?
Ans>> Autoimmune- body destroys B (beta) cells in islets of Langerhans• Only treatment is close
monitoring and insulin
3 P's (polyuria, polyphagia, & polydipsia)
3
, DKA is extreme hyperglycemia
What is the Bariatric Surgery Post Op checklist?
Ans>> After surgery, the nurse assesses the patient for complications from the bariatric surgery,
such as hemorrhage, venous thromboembolism, bile reflux, dumping syndrome, dysphagia, and
bowel or gastric outlet obstruction.
Eat smaller but more frequent meals that contain protein and fiber; each meal size should not
exceed 1 cup.
Eat only foods high in nutrients (e.g., peanut butter, cheese, chicken, fish, beans).
Eat slowly and chew thoroughly.
Assume a low Fowler position during mealtime and then remain in that position for 20-30 minutes
after mealtime—this delays stomach emptying and decreases the likelihood of dumping
syndrome.
Do not drink fluid with meals; instead, consume fluids up to 30 minutes before a meal and 30-60
minutes after mealtime.
What is the main way to determine the difference between gastric & duodenal ulcers?
Ans>> Gastric ulcers pain most commonly occurs immediately after eating, whereas the pain
associated with duodenal ulcers most commonly occurs 2 to 3 hours after meals.
