ischemia
abnormal q wave
necrosis
CK-MB onset

troponin T onset
4 hrs.
troponin I onset
3 hrs.
myoglobin onset
2 hrs.
CK-MB duration
3 days
troponin T duration
3 weeks
troponin I duration
1 week
myoglobin duration
1 day
normal levels of CK-MB and Troponin normal levels
0, T/0.2, I/0.03
myoglobin normal level
<90
thallium scans
show ischemia & necrosis as cold spots (radioisotopes cannot reach these areas)
ptca
percutaneous tranluminal coronary angioplasty
ptca complications (3)
bleeding, acute vessel closure, dysrhthmias
angina precipitated by
exertion or stress
when MI's are likely to occur
no cause, often in morning after rest
angina relieved by
nitro, rest
mi relieved by
opioids
angina duration
<15 minutes
MI ischmia duration
>30 minutes
associated sx with MI (4)
nausea, epigastric distress, dyspnea, diaphoresis
significance of 30ml/hr urine output
sufficient renal perfusion
oxygen given for MI
4 - 6L
vasodilators effects
reduce preload and afterload -> decreases o2 demand
analgesic of choice given for MI
morphine
beta-blockers fx on heart (3)
1) antidysrhythmic 2) antihypertensive 3) reduce afterload
thrombolytic post MI window
6 hrs.
pt education re chest pain (3)
1) stop activity/rest 2) nitro SL - 5 min - nitro - 5 min - nitro - 5 min 3) call 911
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)
urine problems r/t impingement on urethra leading to UTI
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
DKA occurs in which type of DM?
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
characteristic symptoms of non-hemolytic transfusion reaction
sudden onset of chills and fever, headache, flushing, anxiety. body is rejecting donor's blood
chronic renal failure diet goal
protein restriction
acute respiratory failure criteria
acidosis, PO2 <50 PCO2>50
calcium channel blockers have what affect on coronary BV's?
dilation so used for angina
key sign for fluid volume deficit
postural hypotension
