PREDICTOR HESSI 05/2018 1. An older adult resident of a long-term care facility has a 5-year history of hypertension. The client has a headache and rate the pain 5 on a pain scale 0 to 10. The client’s blood pressure is currently 142/89. Which interventions should the nurse implement? (Select all that apply) A. Administer a daily dose of lisinopril as scheduled. B. Assess the client for postural hypotension. C. Notify the healthcare provider immediately D. Provide a PRN dose of acetamin...

RN HESI CRITICAL CARE CARDIAC EXAM REVIEW Dysrhythmia Management, Pacemakers, and Defibrillators Electrical impulses are generated from SA node (pacemaker of the heart). SA node is located on top of atrium. Job of SA node to set heartrate. SA node fires impulses rate at 60-100 beats per minute. AV node acts as secondary pacemaker. If SA node doesn’t fire, the AV node can initiate impulses. Problem is that AV node generates impulses 40- 60 beats per minute. Signal starts at SA node ...
