CORRECT ANSWERS (ALREADY GRADED A+) (2024 UPDATE) 100%
GUARANTEED




S&S DVT - ANSWER- SHEP, seen only unilaterally (one leg), extreme or hardly noticeable,

no S&S


PE (pulmonary embolus) - ANSWER- preventing dislodgment of the clot, if the clot loosens

or floats away, it can get vacuumed right into the heart then into the lungs causing _____________

in the lung


S&S PE (pulmonary embolus) - ANSWER- chest pain, SOB, hemoptysis, shock (low BP)


Virchow's Triad - ANSWER- Stasis of blood flow, Hypercoagubility, Endothelial damage


Virchow's Triad RF - ANSWER- pregnant, immobilized or sit for long periods of time, obesity,

BCPs (estrogen can increase coagulopathy and dehydration; e.g. birth control pills), diuretics

(dehydration)


Arteriosclerosis - ANSWER- related to aging; artery wall becomes thick and hardened; over

time, HTN, smoking, diabetes, genetics, hyperlipidemia decreases elasticity and compliance due

to collagen fibers entering the walls and stiffening the arteries→ alt. VMT


Atherosclerosis - ANSWER- involvement of fatty deposits, such as LDLs; once they enter the

wall, the tissue becomes irritated → inflammation & coagulatory responses triggered


S&S of decreased perfusion & ischemia: - ANSWER- 5 P's, < C.O., altered mentation (stroke),

< U.O.

, Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) - ANSWER- narrow artery - O2 cannot reach distal

extremities (arteries away), O2 probs, ischemia -> necrosis, BAD (lack of O2) in the legs


PAD S&S - ANSWER- 5 P's: smoking, uncontrolled HTN, hyperlipidemia (obesity), diabetes


Arterial Thromboembolic Problems - ANSWER- thrombus might form; if it broke free, it

would travel to distal peripheral arteries


Primary HTN - ANSWER- idiopathic, caused by a complex set of factors


Primary HTN S&S - ANSWER- increase in C.O. and arterial vasoconstriction (RAAS) which

causes a pathologic increase in BP (atherosclerosis)


Secondary HTN - ANSWER- uncommon type of HTN, caused by alt. hemodynamics

associated w/ ds process (adrenal tumor, renal problems)


HTN Affected Primary Systems: (NRC) - ANSWER- neurological, renal, CV


neurological system - HTN - ANSWER- brain: stroke - high ischemia and loss of function in

certain areas of the brain eyes: narrowing of the tiny arterioles in the retina → ischemia and infarct

of parts of retina & vision changes


renal system - HTN - ANSWER- high pressure and damage to renal arteries → hematuria,

proteinuria → renal failure


CV - HTN - ANSWER- increased workload on heart → heart attacks


Aneurysms - ANSWER- atherosclerosis + HTN → create bulges in certain areas
