pO2: 80-100mmHg
ACE inhibitors Correct Answer angiotensin converting
enzyme inhibitors.
-decrease BP, preload, and after load.
-stimulates the kidney to excrete NA+ and water while retaining
K+ (monitor for hypokalemia)
-monitor for hypotension and renal function.
acute coronary syndrome (ACS) Correct Answer common
symptoms associated with myocardial ischemia:
Chest pain, SOB, Dizziness, Nausea, diaphoresis.
after load Correct Answer the pressure that must be exceeded
before ejection of blood from the ventricles can occur
systemic: the pressure the LV must over come during systole
pulmonary: the pressure the RV must overcome during systole.
