dangerous due to the fact layer
that there is a tear in which
layer of the vessel wall?
Inner, middle, outer.
A Pulmonary embolus can obstructive shock
cause what kind of shock?
A patient has type II A, B, C
diabetes, what symptoms
should he expect? Select
all that apply
A. Extreme Hunger
B. Excessive thirst
C. Polyuria
D. Salt craving
E. Quick accumulation of
fat
,Stenosis of the tricuspid B- because the tricuspid valve is located on the right
valve would lead to what? side
A. left sided heart failure
B. Right sided heart failure
C. Pulmonary
regurgitation
D. pulmonary stenosis
#1 sign of right heart peripheral edema and rapid weight gain
failure
A patient comes into the D. Acute pancreatitis: sharp pain that radiates to the
ER and is shaking and back
states that she has a sharp
pain that's in her upper
stomach going all the way
up into her back. Her labs
come back and show she
is experiencing
hyperglycemia and a high
WBC count, what is she
most likely experiencing?
A. Diabetes crisis
B. Type II diabetes
C. Cholilithiasis
D. Acute pancreatitis
Pancreatitis can lead to Type 1 diabetes
Which part of the ekg P wave
corresponds with atrial
depolarization?
It is impossible for S-T segment: ventricles have fully depolarized,
ventricular depolarization absolute refractory period
to occur during which part
of the EKG?
, Heart failure due to the Inotropic problem= Strength of contraction
heart muscle being
underdeveloped and not
strong enough to
overcome the afterload
would be chronotropic
problem, dromotropic
problem, or inotropic
problem?
chronotropic beats per min
dromotropic rate of electrical conduction through heart
A patient comes in with A. hives= Red flare around the border (#1 symptom)
red lesions on his arms
which have a red flare
around the border, what is
this most likely?
A. Urticaria
B. Impetigo
C. Dermatitis
D. Boils
A pulse pressure that is 78 D. traumatic brain injury= increased ICP= Cushing's
would most likely Triad
indicate?
A. hypotension
B. hypertension
C. shock
D. TBI
120-80= what? pulse pressure
Any pulse pressure over widened
60 is considered
From the T wave (ventricles have stopped
The diastolic pressure is
beating/contracting) to the beginning of the R wave
measured during what on
(ventricles begin to fully contract)
an ekg?
Heart spends more time in diastolic
