What is Erb's point
This is where you hear heart sounds the strongest
What is mitral area
This is why you cannot shock a patient in asystole
Because there is no underlying electrical activity - Must do CPR and epi and find the cause (H's and T's)
What are:
1. Suctioning
2. Kinking
3. Coughing
4. Biting
Things to look for with low pressure vent alarms
What is disconnections
This is another term you might hear for neuromuscular blocker
What is a paralytic
If the cuff does not have enough volume in it, the patient can ___; if the cuff is overinflated this can cause ___
aspirate; tracheal damage and erode vessels
This type of electrical therapy speeds things up (i.e., heart block or symptomatic bradycardia)
What is pacing
This is the normal volume for tidal volume; too much volume causes ___
What is 2-8 mL/kg; volutrauma
These are the 3 types of electrical therapy
What are:
1. Pacing
2. Cardioversion
3. Defibrillation
This type of electrical therapy is used when patient is "dead" and is an unsynchronized shock
What is defibrillation
What is capillary refill
What is decrease
This type of electrical therapy slows down a fast HR; it is a small shock that is matched to the underlying rhythm
What is cardioversion
