Medications
I improve contractility, decrease the rate and slow the conduction of impulses through the AV node and indirectly enhance diuresis by increasing renal perfusion.
What is digoxin.
These are the major structures (4) that make the conduction system.
What are the Sinoatrial (SA) node, AV node, AV bundle (Bundle of His), and the Purkinje Fibers
I was born 2 hours ago, and my mom had no prenatal care, no labs on record, which immunizations am I going to get?
Hep B and HBIG.
I am transmitted by direct contact, droplet spread and contaminated objects. Nursing considerations include, isolating child at home until vesicles have dried. I have an incubation period 2-3 weeks period of communicability 1 day before the eruption of lesions to 6 days after 1st crop of vesicles.
What is varicella (chickenpox)
these four cardiac defects have mixing of blood flow.
I block the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II causing vasodilation.
what is ACE Inhibitors ( captopril, enalapril)

What is the SA node
I am at my 2-month-old well baby visit, I should receive which immunizations.
Hep B, Dtap, Rotavirus, HiB, Pneumococcal conjugate, Inactivated poliovirus
I am transmitted through direct contact with an infected person or droplet spread, incubation period 2-5 days I have a hallmark sign of white strawberry tongue on day 1 and a red strawberry tongue on day 3.
what is Scarlet fever
I am a disorder commonly caused by Streptococcus viridian, that causes an infection of the valves and inner lining of the heart. Symptoms include Unexplained low-grade intermittent fever, malaise, headache, diaphoresis, respiratory distress, and symptoms of septicemia.
What is Bacterial Endocarditis
You must pay close attention to this serum level because it can greatly enhance your digoxin medication.
what is the potassium level
These 4 defects are known to have an increase in pulmonary blood flow.
what are: Atrial septal defect, Ventricular septal defect, Patent ductus arterioles and atrioventricular canal.
I am at my 18 month old well baby visit, The immunizations I will receive are:
Hep B, DTap, Inactivated poliovirus, Hep A,
I can be caused by bacteria, virus, allergies or a foreign body. It is important as a nurse to educate to wash their hands thoroughly a sign that should warrant immediate help is a reduction or loss of vision
What is conjunctivitis
I cause a widespread inflammation of the small and medium blood vessels with the coronary arteries being the most susceptible to being damaged.
what is Kawasaki disease
I block the reabsorption of sodium and water in the proximal renal tubule and interfere with the reabsorption of sodium in the loop of hence and the most proximal portion of the distal tubule
What is furosemide (Lasix)
These (3) defects are known to cause an obstruction to blood flow from the ventricles.
What are: Coarctation of the aorta, Aortic stenosis, and pulmonic stenosis.
I am 12 years old, and going for a physical exam, My pediatrician states I will receive which immunizations?
Tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis,
HPV?
Meningococcal
influenza?
I am caused by HPV, unknown transmission there are 3 stages, isolation is not necessary except in a hospitalized child. complications include arthritis, and arthralgia medications given are antipyretics, analgesics and antiinflammatory drugs.
what is erythema infectiosum (fifth disease)
I am an inflammatory disease that has a strong correlation between upper respiratory Infections I cause high-pitched blowing murmur subcutaneous nodules, and chorea.
What is Rheumatic Fever
I block the action of aldosterone, which promotes retention of sodium and excretion of potassium.
What is Spironolactone (Aldactone)
These two cardiac defects have a decrease in pulmonary blood flow.
what are: tetralogy of Fallot and tricuspid atresia.
I am 6 months old, which immunizations will I receive today?
Hep B, DTap, Pneumococcal conjugate, Inactivated poliovirus,
I am caused by Human herpesvirus type 6 (HHV-6) Transmission is unknown, I present with persistent high fevers for 3-4 days in a well-appearing child. associated s/sx are cervical/postauricular lymphadenopathy, inflamed pharynx, cough, and coryza.
what is Roseola (Exanthema Subitum)
I am a 3-year-old newly diagnosed with secondary hypertension, what conditions can be associated with this new diagnosis
What are: Renal disorders, Cardiovascular disorders, Metabolic and endocrine diseases, Neurologic disorders and trauma, hypernatremia, GU surgery, Insect bites and drugs (corticosteroids) Pressor agents, amphetamines)
