Devices
100
Blood is returned to the right atrium through these
Inferior Vena Cava and Superior Vena Cava
100
This medication is commonly used for patients w/ afib RVR, but often causes hypotension with IV infusions
Diltiazem (cardizem)
100
Quarter over Dime
Normal PA pressure- 25/10
100
Name the rhythm
1st degree heart block
100
This is used only for monitoring/diagnosis and does not assist the patient any way
Pulmonary Artery Catheter aka Swan Ganz
200
This valve separates the right atrium and right ventricle and has three leaflets
TRicuspid valve
200
This vasopressor works by aiding in water retention and smooth muscle constriction
Vasopressin
200
This value assesses the left side of the heart and should only be checked if theres an order to do so
Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressure
200
Name the rhythm
SVT
200
How does IABP assist patients?
Increased coronary perfusion and decreased afterload (vacuum affect from balloon deflation)
300
This separates the left atrium and left ventricle, and has the highest rates of dysfunction
MitraL valve
300
This is the most common side effect of nitroglycerin
headache
300
Normal Cardiac Index
2.5-4
300
Whats going on here? Bonus points if you can name WHERE.
Anterior MI: LAD
300
This should be ordered daily to verify IABP placement
CXR
400
These coronaries perfused the LV
LAD and LCx
400
We run IV fluids post heart cath to decrease the risk of this
Contrast Nephropathy
400
Also known as Right Atrial Pressure; normal range 2-8
CVP: Central Venous Pressure
400
Inferior MI; RCA, think bradycardia
400
IABP should be placed on this mode if patient experiences cardiac arrest
Pressure sensing
500
These are perfused during diastole
Coronary arteries
500
IV antiplatelet medication (IV brilinta) that they may start in cath lab
Integrillin
500
The yellow lumen on the swan is used for what
PA pressure monitoring
500
Name that rhythm
Complete heart block
500
Rupture or perforation of pumonary artery, pulmonary infarction, and arrthymias
Risks of obtaining wedge pressure
