stopping a beta blocker are those with
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors - CORRECT |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
ANSWERS ✔✔The medication that helps the imbalance between
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
myocardial oxygen supply and myocardial oxygen demand in the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
myocardium by increasing the myocardial oxygen supply
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
improves insulin sensitivity
|\ |\
improves renal hemodynamics
|\ |\
reduce production of angiotensin II - CORRECT ANSWERS
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
✔✔Roles of Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors in DM
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
patients
|\
Activation of the sympathetic nervous system that increases
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
heart rate and preload - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔The pathological
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
change that takes place in HF that is not addressed by ACE
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
inhibitors
blunted coronary artery dilation due to calcified plaque -
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Reason why nitro glycerin tablets "do not
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
work well" in patient with hyperlipidemia and angina age
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
, factoring in the cost to the patient of the medication prescribed -
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Clinical judgement in prescribing includes
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
decreased renal function - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Prior to |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
prescribing an ACE inhibitor the NP should access for |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
statins - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔First-line pharmacologic therapy
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
for hyperlipidemia
|\
Any end-organ damage, direct effects on lifestyle, or inability to
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
perform the tasks of daily living - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔When is
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
consultation with or referral to a cardiologist appropriate?
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Diuretics - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔If not chosen as the first drug
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
in hypertension treatment, which drug class should be added as
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
a second step because it will enhance the effects of most other
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
agents?
Determine their other risk factors - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔A 65-
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
year-old patient who has been on a lipid-lowering diet and is
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
using plant sterol margarine daily for the past three months. Her
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
LDL is 135mg/dL. What would an appropriate treatment for them
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
be?
promote smooth muscle dilation by stopping intracellular entry of
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
calcium into the cell, which increases contractility, which
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
increase the activity of the NA+/K+/ATPase pump indirectly -
