What is the definition of perfusion?
What is The amount of blood the heart pumps through the body.
how does oxygen diffuse from the lungs to the heart
What is alveoli
What is ventilation?
Movement of air in and out of the lungs
What is a T cell?
T cells scan other cells to determine to attack or destroy
What is Hepatomegaly?
What is abnormal enlargement of the liver
What is the etiology of pneumonia ?
Hint think about the patho of it
An organism such as bacteria or viruses OR noninfectious causes such as aspiration.
What is etiology of Asthma?
What is chronic inflammation disorder of the airways upon a trigger
What are risk factors for COPD
What is, tobacco smoke, occupational dust and chemicals, air pollution, any issues with lung growth during gestation and childhood.
What are the stages of shock
Initial, compensatory, progressive, refractory
What symptoms of acute coronary syndrome
Chest pressure (not sharp pain) radiation to arm or jaw, shortness of breathe, nausea, diaphoresis
What happens with impair perfusion
What is Cell death and organ failure
What are signs of right sided heart failure?
this is where the blood backs up into the body
Pulmonary hypertension-a build up of pressure in the lungs, JVD, hepatomegaly
What makes good diffusion
Thin membrane, large surface area
what happens in the body with the diagnosis of pneumonia? And what you see in the patient with pneumonia
Infection – fluids fill alveoli – impaired gas exchange.
fever, productive, cough, crackles, shortness of breath
What does orthopnea?
what is struggling to breathe laying down
What is a common issues with patients an taking their medication?
What is They stop too soon or do not follow direction.
With Asthma what do the airways do?
What is Constrict
What is chronic bronchitis?
What is initial shock
The first form of shock, hardest to detect
BP is affected by what
Cardiac output, SVR
Heart rate x Stroke volume equals what?
what is cardiac output
The left side of the heart travels to?
body
What makes diffusion worse?
Thickened membrane, fluid in alveoli
What is COPD and what do you see in the patient?
Alviola are damaged – arrogates trapped
dyspnea – wheezing – prolonged expiration – increase CO2 levels
What is paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea?
What are diagnosis test for pneumonia?
Gram stain, cbc, abg, blood cultures, imagining
What assessment would you preform on an asthma patient?
What is, patient history, respiratory, looking for wheezing, chest tightness, and coughing.
What is abnormal permanent enlargement of the gas exchange airways accompanied by destruction of the alveolar walls without obvious fibrosis
What is compensatory shock
The body tries to maintain BP, elevated HR
what is atherosclerosis?
Process where plaque build up in the arteries
What does stroke volume depend on?
Preload, contractility, Afterload
The right side of the heart travels to what?
lungs
What is hemoglobin?
Red blood cell that carries oxygen and it is also a lab commonly used to see if there is a bleed
What is diffusion?
What is Movement of gasses across the alveolar membrane
What is myocardial infarction
What is decreased or complete cessation of blood flow to a portion of the myocardium
What are signs and symptoms of pneumonia?
What are, fever, productive coughing, dyspnea, crackles, use of accessory muscles, confusion.
What diagnostics would you run for asthma patients?
What is ABG, pulmonary function test
What cues would you notice with COPD?
what is, dyspnea with exertion, chronic cough, barrel chest, prolonged expiration, clubbing
What is refractory shock
Irreversible damage
What is hypovolemic?
Fluid loss
What is the definition of preload, contractibility and afterload
What is how much blood fills the heart, how strong the heart squeezes and resist the heart pumps agains.
What does it mean when you’re in a state of an adequate tissue perfusion
Shock
What is a leukocyte and explain what type it is and where it is made
A leukocyte is a white blood cell that is made from the bones
What is shock?
Inadequate delivery of oxygen through the blood.
What is anaphylaxis?
What is rapid progressing potentially fatal allergic reaction when the airway closes.
what action Will you take to improve pneumonia?
What is position them into high fowers, encourage coughing, document to the quantity and color of mucus, maybe a breathing treatment.
What intervention would you start for a asthmatic patient?
What is, control and prevent episode (think inhaler), self management eduction, personal plan for an attack, educate on the importance of using drugs regularly and continuing even when no symptoms are present.
what signs would suggest COPD, thing you can see without an assessment per say.
Weight loss, anxiety, decreased endurance, potential of pneumonia, decreased gas exchange.
What are the normals of ABG, (PH, PaCo2, PaCo3)
what make it acidic or alkaline
7.35-7.45, 35-45, 22-26
explain y’all answers
What is type of shock is when the BP drops, and organs as failing?
Progressive
What causes hypovolemic shock?
What is Fluid loss (bleeding or dehydration) think not enough volume
What stage of shock is when the body drops BP and organs are failing
what is progressive
What is gas exchange?
What is oxygen in, carbon dioxide out.
What does consolidation medically mean?
What is, gathering of something typically fluid or mucus in an area.
What is tachypnea?
What is rapid breathing
