smooth muscle relaxation in the airways and causes arteriole
smooth muscle contractility (potentiating inotrophic effect). EPI
also INCREASES heart rate (positive chronotrophic effect),
peripheral vasocontriction, and glycogenolysis (breakdown of
glycogen stores in liver into glucose for cellular use)

- NOREPINEPHRINE increases heart rate, vascular tone
through alpha-adrenergic receptor activation, and blood flow to
skeletal muscle and triggers the release of glucose from energy
stores.

What is the pH? - CORRECT ANSWER-neutral pH, and sterile

, ch. 12, p. 164

As ICP rises, CPP ________, resulting in cerebral ischemia,
hypoxemia, and lethal secondary insult. - CORRECT
ANSWER-DECREASES

Ch. 9, p. 109

As shock progresses, primary goal of the body is to maintain
perfusion to vital organs. Sympathetic stimulation has little
effect on the cerebral and coronary vessels since they are
capable of autoregulation. Cerebral autoregulation maintains a
constant... - CORRECT ANSWER-cerebral vascular blood flow
as long as the MAP is maintained between 50-150... when
autoregulation in the brain fails, perfusion becomes dependent
solely on pressure.

ch. 7, p. 78

Assess pupils for... - CORRECT ANSWER-Equality, shape,
and reactivity (PERRL)
