400

Which of the following is the action of the parasympathetic system on the heart? 

a. Vasodilates the coronary arteries

b. Negative Chronotropic effects

c. Positive ionotrophic effects

d. Stimulates cardio-acceleratory center in medulla

b. Negative chronotrophic effects

The parasympathetic system vasoconstricts the coronary arteries, elicits negative chronotrophic and ionotrophic effects, and stimulates the cardio-inhibitory center of the medulla

400

A patient with pericarditis presents with elevated intracardiac pressures, reduced SV and limited ventricular diastolic filling. What is the most likely diagnosis?

A. Cor pulmonale

B. Cardiac tamponade

C. Pericardial effusion

D. Myocarditis

B. Cardiac tamponade

400

FEVI/ FVC ratio is 90% with hypoxemia what does it indicate?

A. Normal respiratory status

B. Obstructive lung disease

C. Restrictive lung disease 

D. Cannot determine the respiratory status

C. Restrictive lung Disease

They have trouble getting air in so the FEVI/FVC ratio would be normal or higher. Since there is difficulty getting air in, there is a decreased surface area for gas exchange, therefore hypoxemia
