Hemodynamic monitoring - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Hemodynamic Monitoring Exam Guide2| Questions with Complete Solutions What is diastole - Relaxation of the heart during fillling What is systole - Contraction and pumping of the heart What is cardiac output - Volume of blood ejected by the heart in one minute Normal cardiac output - 4-8 L/min What is stroke volume - Volume of blood ejected with each beat What affects stroke volume - preload, afterload, contractility What is ejection fraction - Fraction of blood ejected with each beat No...

A change in the PA waveform and pressure are noted. A dicrotic notch is no longer visible. Values change from 36/15 to 30/3. What action should the nurse anticipate? ?Removing the syringe from the balloon port. A sudden drop in the waveform's values, accompanied by a loss of the dicrotic notch, could indicate catheter slippage from PA to RV. Inflating the balloon may help the catheter float forward into the PA. Notify the provider for possible catheter repositioning. A patient with s...

Levels of hemodynamic monitoring - Arterial, Central Venous, Pulmonary Artery Pulmonary Artery Catheter - Allows for monitoring of vascular tone, myocardial contractility, intracardiac pressures, cardiac output, and fluid balance. Arterial line - Usually placed in radial or femoral arteries, allows continuous BP monitoring and rapid recognition of problems requiring intervention. CVP/RAP - Central Venous Presssure or Right Atrial Pressure: Measured in the great veins/right atrium, it is a ...

what is end organ perfusion - the needed amount of blood and BP to perfuse a specific organ what is the mean arterial pressure for the kidney - 60 or above what is the mean arterial pressure for the braain - 80-100 what area of the hearts tells us about JVD - atrium what does right arterial pressure tell us about a patient - the fluid status

The transducer on a hemodynamic monitoring system is leveled to the patient's phlebostatic axis. The phlebostatic axis is located at the: 1)Level of the left ventricle 2)Level of the right atrium 3)4th intercostal space, mid A-P 4)4th intercostal space mid-axillary - 2)Level of the right atrium 3)4th intercostal space, mid A-P Which site is the most common for an arterial line to be inserted? 1)Femoral artery 2)Radial Artery 3)Femoral Vein 4)Brachial Artery - 2)Radial Artery
