supplied by the Right Coronary artery, and fires at a rate of 60-100 bpm. Correct Ans ~ SA
Node

Atrial depolarization characterized by smooth, round, upright deflection less than 0.11 secs long
and less than 2.5mm tall is referred to as what on the ECG? Correct Ans ~ P wave

Carvedilol (Coreg)
Metropolol (Lopressor)
Atenolol (Tenormin)
Propranolol (Inderal)
Bisoprolol (Zebeta)
Acebutolol (Sectral)
Comolol (Brevibloc) Correct Ans ~ Beta Blockers - used for blood pressure and cardiac
problems

Epinephrine
Norepinephrine
Vasopressin
Dopamine
Phenylephrine
Dobutamine Correct Ans ~ Vasopressors

The middle of phase 3 to beginning of phase 4 in the cardiac cycle where cardiac cells are
partially refractory and partially repolarized and certain cells can be depolarized in response to
electrical stimulus. Correct Ans ~ Relative Refractory Period

(Partial flush of the toilet)

Treatment for Beta Blocker Overdose Correct Ans ~ Glucagon: 1-5mg IV/IO (1st Line Drug)

Calcium Chloride: 500mg - 1g IV/IO

Swelling of affected limb, pain and tenderness, inflammation/redness, warm to touch on affected
limb, pain on dorsiflexion (Homan Sign) are all signs of? Correct Ans ~ DVT

,Treatment of DVT Correct Ans ~ Supportive Care, Position of Comfort, Establish IV,
Cardiac Monitor, Pulse Ox, O2, Monitor vitals for embolism.

Do not massage affected limb.

The pressure gradient that drives coronary blood pressure.

The difference between aortic diastolic pressure and left ventricular end diastolic pressure that
perfuses the coronary arteries. Correct Ans ~ Coronary Perfusion

Tachycardia, Difficulty Breathing, Diminished Lung Sound, Pulse Quality Changes, and unequal
chest rise are early signs and symptoms of? Correct Ans ~ Tension Pneumothorax

Air is entering the pleural space but cannot escape. Positive pressure ventilation can make it
worse.

Criteria for Unstable Dysrhythmia Correct Ans ~ Ischemic Chest Pain
ALOC
Hypotension/Hypovolemia
Signs of Shock
Acute Heart Failure

Restriction of of cardiac contraction, falling cardiac output, and shock as a result of pericardial
fluid accumulation are characteristics of? Correct Ans ~ Cardiac Tamponade

Hypotension, SOB, Lightheadedness, Chest Pain, Syncope, Palpitations, Extremity Swelling, and
Muffled heart sounds are signs and symptoms of? Correct Ans ~ Cardiac Tamponade

Indications for Dopamine Correct Ans ~ Cardiogenic Shock
Distributive Shock after fluids
Hemodynamically significant Hypotension
Symptomatic Brady (2nd Line drug)

AHA Guidlines for Terminating CPR efforts in field(4) Correct Ans ~ Arrest was not
witnessed

No bystander CPR was administered

ROSC was not achieved after complete
ALS care in the field

No shocks were administered

Time frame that starts at the patient contact by EMS and ends with definitive therapy of catheter
passing through lesion of coronary vessel. Correct Ans ~ EMS-to-Balloon-Time

,Time from patient entering ED to catheter passing through lesion of coronary vessel. Correct
Ans ~ Door-to-balloon-time

Time from patient entering ED to fibrinolytic therapy administration. Correct Ans ~ Door-to-
needle-time

Time frame for door-to-balloon Correct Ans ~ <90mins

Time frame for door-to-needle Correct Ans ~ <30mins

Principle symptom of Coronary Artery Disease or Acute Coronary Syndrome that occurs when
supply of O2 is to the myocardium is insufficient to meet demand and cells become ischemic?
Correct Ans ~ Angina Pectoris

Chest pain that occurs at rest and is caused by coronary artery vasospasm? Risk for Dysrhythmia,
MI, Heart Block and Death Correct Ans ~ Prinzmetal Angina (PA)

Which electrolyte flows into cardiac cells to initiate depolarization? Correct Ans ~ Sodium
(Na+)

Which electrolyte flows out of cardiac cells to to initiate repolarization? Correct Ans ~
Potassium (K+)

Which electrolyte plays a major role in depolarization of pacemaker cells to maintain
depolarization and myocardial contractility? Correct Ans ~ Calcium (Ca++)

Which electrolyte stabilizes cell membrane and acts in concert with K+ and opposes actions of
Ca++? Correct Ans ~ Magnesium (Mg++)

Hypokalemia results in? Correct Ans ~ increased myocardial irritability

Hyperkalemia results in? Correct Ans ~ decreased automaticity/conduction

Hypocalcemia results in? Correct Ans ~ decreased contractility and increased irritability

Hypercalcemia results in? Correct Ans ~ Increased contractility

Hypomagnesemia results in? Correct Ans ~ decreased conduction

Hypermagnesemia results in? Correct Ans ~ increased myocardial irritability

Four properties of the Cardiac Conduction System Correct Ans ~ Excitability - cells respond
to electrical impulse

Conductivity - cells pass impulse to one another

, Automaticity - hearts ability to generate its own electrical impulse

Contractility - hearts ability to contract when stimulated

Affects of RCA occlusion in terms of the SA node ischemia? Correct Ans ~ SA node
becomes ischemic = slower firing rate (<60-100) or cease fire completely causing another
automaticity foci to take over such as AV (40-60) or Purkinje (20-40).

Which electrolytes are responsible for depolarization? Correct Ans ~ Sodium and Calcium
influx

Which electrolyte is responsible for repolarization? Correct Ans ~ Potassium outflow

Indications for CPAP (5) Correct Ans ~ Alert and able to follow commands
Moderate to Severe Respiratory Distress
Hyperventilation

Tracheostomy
GI bleed or Vomiting
Inability to fit CPAP
Excessive Facial Hair/Dysmorphic features

Coronary circulation begins from aorta at the? Correct Ans ~ Right and Left Coronary
Arteries

The right coronary artery has how many branches and supplies blood to where? Correct Ans ~
9
Right Atrium, SA/AV node, and Right Ventricle
Inferior Left Ventricle
