CCRN Questions and Answers A 56 yr-old male is admitted to the ICU with a blood pressure of 225/135 and complains of a headache and nausea. He reports he ran out of blood pressure meds three days ago, but also appears to be confused to the date and situation. What is the most appropriate treatment approach? -Correct Answer= Rapidly lower the diastolic pressure to 100 with IV antihypertensive meds, then continue to gradually reduce the diastolic pressure to 85 with oral antihypertensive meds. The...

BKAT review Questions and Answers 2023 Upon recognizing ventricular fibrillation in a safe environment, the nurse should then establish unresponsiveness The most important step in preventing central venous catheter related sepsis is: Thorough handwashing. A routine check of your patient's blood gas values show a pH of 7.40, pO2 of 98mm Hg, pCO2 of 38 mmhg, and HCO3 of 25 mEq. These results reflect Normal values Nitropressin and Dobutamine Reduce afterload and improve c...

The nurse is caring for a patient admitted with hypovolemic shock. The nurse palpates thready brachial pulses but is unable to auscultate a blood pressure. What is the best nursing action? a. Assess the blood pressure by Doppler. b. Estimate the systolic pressure as 60 mm Hg. c. Obtain an electronic blood pressure monitor. d. Record the blood pressure as not assessable. A ~ Auscultated blood pressures in shock may be significantly inaccurate due to vasoconstriction. If blood pressure is not...

1. A nurse is evaluating the central venous pressure (CVP) of a client who has sustained multiple traumas. Which of the following interpretations of a low CVP pressure should the nurse make? A. Fluid overload Rationale: The CVP is the pressure in the vena cava, or right atrium, and is reflective of preload. A client who has fluid overload would have a high CVP value. B. Left ventricular failure Rationale: Left ventricular failure can be detected by an elevated pulmonary artery wedge pressure...

A patient had a pulmonary artery catheter, and the following values were obtained on the initial shift assessment: Blood pressure 82/48, heart rate 126 beats/minute, pulmonary artery pressure 22/10, central venous pressure (CVP) 1 mmHg, pulmonary artery occlusion pressure 4 mmHg, cardiac output 3 L/minute, and systemic vascular resistance 1,600 dynes/s/cm-5 This patient requires the administration of: (A) a fluid bolus of 500 mL of 0.9 normal saline. (B) dopamine at 5 mcg/kg/min. (C) dobut...
