| A. left ventricular dysfunction. increases cardiac contractility. at high doses, it also increases HR and incidence of ectopic beats and tachydysrhythmias. take care in pt with a-fib.B. take long term anticoagulant therapy, freequent follow up appointsments and blood lab studies. mak need to take aspirin, precribed medication teaching, C. <3 little boxesD. promote vasodilation and diuresis by decreasing afterload and preload. E. S/S: dyspnea, progressive fatigue, hemoptysis, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea, chough, wheeze, repeated respiratory infections. Dysrhythmias like A-fib. Tests Doppler echocardiography.F. Risk factors: heart valve prosthesis, hx of heart disease (mitral valve prolapse), chronic dibilitatin disease, IV drug abuse and immunosuppressionG. ST elevation indicates immediate myocardial injury. ST depressions indicate myocardial ischemia. Q wave forms several days after a myocardial infarction, U wave is a sign of hypokalemia.H.
