ECG finding 

ST elevation 

100

muscle becomes stiff and less elastic 

restrictive 

100

this level need to be monitored when you take a loop diuretic (furosemide) 

K+ levels aka potassium 

100

used to incr BP & must be administered though a CENTRAL LINE to prevent extravasation

vasopressin or norepinephrine

100
the three meds given for hyperkalemia treatment

IV push insulin 

Calcium gluconate 

Dextrose IV infusion 

200

common complaint of CAD 

angina

causes abnormal heart rhythms 

arrhythmogenic 

200

side effect of spironolactone 

HYPERkalemia 
200

Inhibitory effect on RAAS

Sacubitril 

200

these need to be monitor if hyperkalemia treatment is initiated 

ECG, K+ levels, & BG 

300

diagnostic test 

exercise stress test 

300

this med can improve cardiac output in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 

beta blockers 

300

side effects of digoxin toxicity 

bradycardia, nausea, & blurred vision 

300

ALWAYS given through a DESIGNATED IV line

400

this med is calculated by weight 

epi 

400

you want to monitor these if you give sacubitril 

BP, renal, and K+ levels 

400

helps stabilize the heart 

calcium gluconate 

500

treatment for CAD 

lifestyle modifications 

meds: ace inhibitors, beta blockers, calcium channel blockers 

500

cardio output is decr or incr with pericardial effusion 

decreased 

500

if this med is given; monitor for HYPOglycemia 

empagliflozin 

500

relaxes blood vessels and have ionotropic effects
