nursing group back row is amazing
complications of vascular surgery
what is bleeding and hemorrhage, re-occlusion, hematoma, neurological dysfunction, volume defict
restores blood flow and oxygenation and can be a surgical emergency
what is embolectomy and thrombolectomy
s/s of atrial flutter and medications to give to this Patient.
what is palpitations, angina, dyspnea.
cardioversion, CCB, and beta blockers.
interventions for atrial FIbrillation
list 3
synchronized cardioversion, bea blockers, CCB, digoxin, anticougulant, ablation, biatrial pacing, implantable atrial defib, surgical maze procedure.
s/s and interventions for PVC
palpitations, fatigue, dizziness, sever dysrhythmias
antidysrhythmics, amiodarone, beta blckers, and sometimes none.
what should you do when a patient is in ventricular fib?
list 3
immediate d- fib, CPR, epinephrine, vasopressin, amiodarone, magnesium, and endotracheal intuabation.
asystole interventions
BLS prtocolls, ACLS protocols, endotrcheal intubation, epinephrine, vasopressin.
maintenance of fetal circulation. higher pressure of aorta forces oxygenated blood back in pulmonary circulation.
list 2 s/s and treatment.
s/s include impaired growth, dyspnea/w activity, murmur thrill, bounding femoral pulse, widened pulse pressure.
medications endomethicin and surgery
name 4 classic features of tetralogy of fallot
what is VSD, pulmonary stenosis, overriding aorta, right ventricle hypertrophy
s/s for tetrology of fallot and diagnosis.
what is severe cyonsis, clubbing of fingers and toes, thrill chest deformity, hypoxic spells, small for age, squatting, polycythemia.
diagnosis is x-ray showing boot shaped heart echo/card cath can confirm.
abnormally narrowed aorta
s/s include systolic murmor bounding pulses in upper extremities and dimished or absent in lower.
what is coartction of the aorta
dilation at weakned area of artery, abnormal aorta most common. types include fusiform, saccularm and dissecting
what is aneurysms
what is pulmonary artery orginates from left venticle, aorta arises from right ventricle. s/s are extreme cyonosis, CHF. treatment includes prostatglandins and surgical repair. go to ER immediately.
patient education for cardiac surgery
what is disease information, medications, diet, activity, rehab
MI s/s in WOMEN
list 5what is absence of classic pain, dyspnea, fatigue, anxiety, chest cramping, epigastric or abdominal pain, restlessness, falling
treatment of varicose veins
what is reduce contributing facotrs, compression socks, injection sclerotherapy, radiofrequency ablation, laser, surgical intervention.
who is at more risk of an MI
what is African American women
occurs as a complication of untreated strep throat. scars the mitral valve
what is rheumatic fever
describe Raynauds disease
what is vasoconsriction with cold/stress causing ischemia. mainly affects hands, and causes blachingm pain, and reddening.
s/s and diagnostic test of aneurysms
what is none if early, back/flank pain, pulsating abdominal mass, rupture, shock. tests abdominal ultrasound, CT, MRI, aortography
anti-cougulants, thrombolytics, thrombectomy, embolectomy
what is therapetic interventions for artrial blood clot.
peripheral arterial disease s/s and interventions
what is intermittent claudication, cool skin, reddish-purplish when dependent, pale when elevated, diminished/absent pulses
low-fat, cholesterol, calorie diet, medication, and invasive therapies.
list diagnostic tests and theruputic interventions for an MI.
list 4 for each
what is consider pt history, serial ECG, cardiac troponin I or T, myoglobin B, CK-MB, C-reactive protein, Mg.
therupituc intervention oxygen, aspirin, morphine sulfate, thrombolytics, vasodilators, nitrates, beta blockers, antidysrhythmics
what is the difference between left side and right side heart failure.
what is left sided HF is force generated by left ventricle to eject blood into aorta through aortic valve, hypertension is major cause, blood backs up from left ventricle into lungs.
right sided HF the right ventricle hypertophies and fails due to increased pulmonary pressures, backward buildup of blood in systemic blood vessels, peripheral edema results.
