Korotkoff's sounds
|
manual BP phases in a series of sounds
1. sharp tapping (140) 2. swishing (130-120) 3.Thump softer than tap softer (110) 4. blowing muffled sound that fades (90) 5. Silence (80) |
|
|
Pulse ox
|
estimates a clints arterial blood oxygen saturation SaO2
95 - 100 % |
|
|
hypotention
|
BP below normal a systolic consistently btwn 85 and 110 Hg
|
|
|
pulse pressure
|
difference btwn diastolic and systolic
|
|
|
diastolic
|
pressure when ventricles are at rest (lower pressure present at all ties within the arteries)
|
|
|
systolic pressure
|
pressure of blood as a result of contraction of the ventricles, that is, the pressure of height of blood wave
|
|
|
arterial blood pressure
|
measure of pressure exerted by the blood as it flows through the arteries
|
|
|
respiratory rhythm
|
regularity of expirations and inspiration, shouold be evenly spaced
|
|
|
hyperventilation
|
very deep, rapid, respirations
|
|
|
ventilation
|
movement of air in and out of the lungs
|
|
|
tachypnea/polypnea
|
abnormally fast respirations
|
|
|
bradypnea
|
abnormally slow respiration
|
|
|
apical radial pulse assessment
|
usually identical beats...A heart rate is great that radial heart rate, thrust of blood from heart is too weak for a wave to be felt at peripheral heart rate site or vascular disease is causing it....pulse deficit
|
|
|
bradycardia
|
heart rate less than 60 BPM apical pulse should be assessed
|
|
|
tachycardia
|
excessively fast heart rate beat over 100 BPM apical pulse should be assessed
|
|
|
pulse sites
|
radial, brachial, temporal, carotid, apical, femoral, popliteal, posterior tibial, dorsalis pedis
|
|
|
pulse ranges
|
Heart Rate
newborn 130 (80-180) 1 year 120 (80-140) 5-8 yrs 100 (75-120) 10 yrs 70 (50-90) Teen 75 (50-90) Adult 80 (60-100) Old Adult70 (60-100) |
|
|
respiration ranges
|
newborns 35 (30-80)
1 yr 30 (20-40) 5-8 yr 20 (15-25) 10 yrs 19 (15-20) Teen 18 (12-20) Adult 16 (15-20) Old Adult16 (15-20) |
|
|
pulse
|
a wave of blood created by contraction of the left ventricle of the heart
*pulse wave represents the stroke volume output or amount of blood that enters the arteries with each ventricular contraction |
|
|
prexia
|
body temp above usual range
hyperthermial (105.8) Fever- febrile (no fever = afebrile) hypothermia-below normal |
|
|
hypertention
|
BP above normal
|
|
|
palpation
|
examination of the body by using the sense of touch
-texture,temp,vibration,position, size, consistency, mobility of organs or masses, dstention (urinary), pulsation, pain with pressure |
|
|
tympany
|
musical or drumlike sound produced from an air filled stomach
|
|
|
dull
|
thudlike sound produced by dense tissue such as liver, spleen or heart
|
|
|
hyperresonance
|
not produced in the normal body, its booming and can be heard over an emphysematous lung
|
|
|
flat
|
extremely dull sound produced by a very dense tissue such as muscle or bone
|
|
|
resonance
|
hollow sound such as produced by lungs filled with air
|
|
|
auscultation
|
process of listening to sounds produced within the body
|
|
|
percussion
|
act of striking the body surface to elicit sounds that can be heard or vibrations that can be felt - direct and indirect
|
|
|
inspection
|
visual examination by assessing by using sense of sight
|
|
|
light palps
|
presses gently with fingers moving hand in circle skin is slightly depressed
|
|
|
deep palps
|
2 hands one over other top hand apples pressure while other feels for textile sensations
|
|
|
supine
|
lying on back with face up
|
|
|
prone
|
lying flat downward
