NURS 2400 Exam 4- ANS-** GO over chest tubes
... - ANS-go over CBC values***
0.4-1.0 - ANS-normal basophil count
1-3 - ANS-normal eosinophil count
10, 5, year - ANS-Have a colonoscopy every ____ years
Have a CT colonography every ___ years if low risk
Have a fecal occult blood test every _____
2.5-4.5 - ANS-Normal PO4 level
25-35 - ANS-normal lymphocyte count
3.5-5.3 - ANS-normal K+ level
4-6 - ANS-normal monocyte count
4.4-7.6 - ANS-uric acid levels
50-70 - ANS-normal neutrophil count
9-11 - ANS-normal calcium level
- calcium is decreased in tumor lysis syndrome (trousseau and chovestek may be
present)
a sore that does not heal - ANS-(CAUTION)
A
Absolute neutrophil count - ANS--ANC
- evaluates presence of neutropenia
- >1500 = not significant
- 1000-1500 = minimal risk
-500- 1000= profound risk
- <500 = severe risk
,Calculation=
total WBC * (%segs + %bands) / 100
ACMV - ANS-- assist controlled mechanical ventilation
- frequently used to initiate mechanical ventilation
- client can trigger ventilator to deliver breaths at preset volume or pressure and
inspiratory flow rate
- breaths will be delivered at preset rate if client does not initiate
- assisted breaths are triggered by inspiratory effort
- if resp. rate falls below preset number, ventilator- controlled breath are delivered
- all breaths delivered at specific tidal volume or pressure and inspiratory flow rate
acute lung injury - ANS-- underlying pathology in ARDS is ____ resulting from
unregulated system inflammatory response to acute injury or inflammation
- can be direct or indirect
acute lymphocytic leukemia - ANS-(Leukemia)
- survival rate > 85% in kids
- occurs in children and teenagers
- clinical manifestations = neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia and infiltration of
CNS causing headache, visual disturbances
acute myeloid leukemia - ANS-(Leukemia)
- 5 year survival rate = 25%
- occurs in adults > 20
- clinical manifestations = neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia
acute respiratory distress syndrome - ANS-- disorder w/ rapid onset characterized by
non- cardiac pulmonary edema and progressive refractory edema
- extensive lung tissue inflammation
- small blood vessel injury
- multisystem organ failure (eventually)
-ARDS
alveolar collapse - ANS-(patho of ARDS)
#3
- protein rich fluid accumulates in the alveoli, inactivating surfactant and damaging type
II alveolar cells that produce surfactant
, - as surfactant is lost, the alveoli stiffen and collapse, leading to atelectasis, which
increases breathing effort
- decreased alveolar compliance, atelectasis and fluid filled alveoli interfere with gas
exchange across the alveolar-capillary membrane
- PaO2 decreases
- Co2 diffuses more readily than O2, however blood carbon Co2 (PaCo2) levels drop
initially as tachypnea expels Co2
anaphylactic shock - ANS-- early symptoms = hives, itching, sense of dread
- turning blue or white
- swelling of lips and face
- grating, grainy cough
- wheezing
- hives, specifically over several area
anaphylactic shock - ANS-Treatment for ______:
- epi
- oxygen therapy
- beta agonist injection
- antihistamine
- vasopressors
- corticosteroids
- IV fluids
anaphylaxis - ANS-- skin symptoms or swollen lips
- difficulty breathing
- reduced BP
- GI symptoms (vomiting, diarrhea, cramping)
-* different than shock
anaphylaxis - ANS-Treatment for _____ (different)
- epi
- oral antihistamine
- steroids (usually single dose)
- repeat epi if needed
- observe for minimum of 4 hours
anatomy - ANS-- anatomical classification
- strictly depends on the body part it came from
