RAAS
This is released by the kidneys when low blood pressure is detected.
What is renin
The common ending for ACE drugs
What is -pril
We know this is a common ending to ARBs.
What is -sartan
We know this is the most common ending for CCBs.
What is -pine
We know that anticoagulants do this and NOT this
What is inhibit clot formation and not dissolve clots
This combines with renin to make Angiotensin I
What is angiotensinogen
ACE inhibitors do this to peripheral resistance
What is decrease
We know that ARBs cause the kidneys to do this.
What is excrete sodium and water and retain potassium
We learned about these 2 additional CCBs that do NOT end in -pine
What is Verapamil and Diltiazem
This is the most common oral anticoagulant, but requires routine lab monitoring
What is warfarin
This substance combines with Angiotensin I to produce Angiotensin II.
What is kinase II (or ACE)
This is the most common side effect of an ACE inhibitor.
What is a dry cough
We know that ARBs do this to vasodilation and this to peripheral resistance
What is Increase vasodilation and decrease peripheral resistance
We know that CCBs do this to blood vessels and this to the heart
What is increase vasodilation and decrease contractility
This anticoagulant is only given SQ or IV
What is Heparin
We know that Angiotensin II is a ______ hormone.
What is vasoconstrictive
We know that ACE inhibitors can do this to lithium levels.
What is increase
We know that ARBs can do this if a patient is also taking lithium.
What is cause lithium toxicity
We know that we cannot take our ARBs with this drink as it is contraindicated with most medications as well as ARBs.
What is grapefruit juice
We know this is the antidote for Warfarin
What is Vitamin K
We know that aldosterone, released from the adrenal gland helps the kidneys to do this.
What is reabsorb sodium and water and secrete potassium
We know these are the possible side effects of ACE inhibitors.
What is first-dose orthostatic hypotension, dry cough, hyperkalemia, rash, angioedema, and neutropenia
We know that these are some of the side effects of ARBs.
What is angioedema, fetal injury, hypotension, dizziness, and lightheadedness
We know that for the 2 ARBs that do not have the common ending -pine, we must ensure the patient has this attached if they are receiving these
What is a telemetry monitor
We know this is the antidote for Heparin and should be kept at the bedside
What is Protamine sulfate
