|
|
what is cardiogenic shock
|
usu after MI, sustained hypotension and hypoperfusion
|
|
how do you distinguish angina from MI
|
if it's not relieved by rest and nitro, assume it's MI
|
|
ST segment elevation indicates
|
ischemia
|
|
positive inotropic agent does what?
|
increases force and strength of contraction
|
|
positive chronotropic drug does what?
|
increases cardiac rate
|
|
iso-osmolar fluid volume deficit is r/t and why
|
hemorrhage (fluids and solutes are lost in proportionally
|
|
s/sx prostate cancer (hint - think enlarged prostate gland)

|
|
important factor re d/c'ing tpn
|
gradual tapering so that hypoglycemia doesn't occur
|
|
why are cushingoids at risk for infection
|
cortisol excess decreases immunity
|
|

1 IDDM under stress
|
|
deep and rapid respirations are called
|
kussmaul's
|
|
peak time of NPH insulin and intervention
|
6 - 12 hours. insulin pushes glucose and potassium into cells, lowering BG. so a snack is needed to prevent hypoglycemia
