Question | Answer |
---|---|
normal hgb | males 14-16 females 12-14 |
cardiac output | the amount of blood ejected from the left ventricle with each contraction |
cardiac output = | heart rate x stroke volume average 5L/min range 4-8L/min |
heart rate | number of beats per minute |
stroke volume | amount of blood that enters the arteries with each contraction |
apex | bottom of heart |
base | top of heart |
great vessels of the heart | superior and inferior vena cava, pulmonary arteries, pulmonary veins, aorta |
Left lung | two lobes |
right lung | three lobes |
low pressure vessels | veins |
high pressure vessels | arteries |
The thickest cardiac muscle | left ventricle |
Conductive pathway "Plan A" | SA Node (sino atrial) located in right atria. electrical impulses cause heart muscle to depolaraize (contract) in the SA Node. 60-100 times/min |
the pacemaker of the heart | SA Node |
Conductive pathway "Plan B" | AV Node (atrial ventricular) beats 40-60/min. may not be enough. may feel lightheaded, dizzy. |
conductive pathway "Plan C" | Bundle of His 20-40 beats/min. not enough. will need pacemaker, meds. |
P Wave | beginning of heart rate. right and left atrial contraction/depolarization starts here sending blood to ventricles. |
PR interval | allowing ventricles to fill |
QRS | ventricle depolarization. ventricles are contracting. |
T wave | ventricle repolarization/relaxing |
no reflection | atrial repolarization/relaxation |
dialostic | repolarization |
systolic | depolarization/contraction |
first heart sound | S1 systole. lubb sound |
second heart sound | S2 diastole. longer than systole. |
third heart sound | S3 heard in diastole in kids and young adults. use bell. called ventricular gallop |
fourth heart sound | S4 heard in late diastole/early systole. called atrial gallop |
S&S of right side heart failure | swelling, edema, distended veins, feet swelling during the day |
S&S of left side heart failure | SOB, increase resp rate |
location of aortic valve | right of sternum 2nd ics. |
location of pulmonic valve | left of sternum 2nd ics |
location of tricuspid valve | left of sternum 5th ics |
location of bicuspid(mitral) valve | left of sternum 5th ics, medial to midclavicular line. (apical pulse) |
oxygenated blood is found here | arteries. flow away from heart. |
dexoygenated blood is found here | veins. flow back to heart. |
point of maximal impulse (PMI) | apical pulse. in apex of heart. |
grading pulses: 0, 1+, 2+, 3+, 4+ | non palapable, weak, normal, full, bounding(may indicate heart condition) |
pulse deficit | diff between apical and radial pulse. |
JVD Juglar Vein Distention on right side may indicate | CHF. If bulging with head elevated a + finding. |
vasoconstriction | vessels getting smaller. b/p increases |
vasodilation | vessels getting bigger. b/p decreases |
innervates heart through vagus nerve. supplies sa node, atrial muscle fibers, and av node. causes heart rate to slow down | parasympathetic |
fight or flight. supplies all areas of atria and ventricles. causes heart to speed up. | sympathetic |
located in walls of carotid sinus and aortic arch. detects b/p changes | baroreceptors(pressorreceptors) |
angina | decreased o2 to heart |
pericarditis | heart sac inflamation |
activity tolerance classification. | class I, class II, class III, class IV |
class I | has heart disease. asymptomatic |
class II | slight limitations. no distress at rest. |
class III | significant limitation. no distress at rest but low intensity activity causes palpations,sob, etc. |
class IV | symptoms at rest. any activity aggravates symptoms. |
pulmonic chest pain | pleuritic pain. sharp knife-like. related to lungs. |
claudication | intermittent sharp cramping in legs after activity. ischemia, atherosclerosis |
fatigue | low energy levels |
weakness | decreased muscular strength |
SOB | shortness of breath. dyspnea. can be cardiac, psychogenic, respiratory |
self care abilities | 0, I, II, III, IV |
self care 0 | pt can do everything for self |
self care I | pt needs help with equipment ie walker, cane... |
self care II | pt needs help of one person |
self care III | pt needs help of one person and equipment. |
self care IV | totally dependent on others. |
