NURSE-UN 240 A&E I– FINAL EXAM STUDY GUIDE WEEK 9 – HYPERTENSION & STROKE HYPERTENSION - Hypertension – o Some Disparities: ▪ Incidence is highest among African-Americans ▪ Incidence is higher among men compared to women until age 45 ▪ Incidence is higher among women compared to men after age 45, especially after age 54 (cause unknown) ▪ 1 in every 3 Americans has HTN • 46% do not have it under control • 2 out of 3 have HTN after 65 years old ▪ Uncontrolled BP incre...

NURS 531EXAM 1 Notes 1. More drugs metabolized by CYP3A4 greater than any other P450 enzyme = increased drug-drug interaction 2. Factors that regulate Css (serum conc), with this ADME is same to c heck maintenance dose = increase drug increase Css plasma levels 3. Induction of CYP450 Enzyme >>> increased # of enzymes, increased intrinsic? activity increased rate of metabolism = increase metabolic rate >>> decrease amount of purest? drug 4. IV drug 1st order kinetic Q 3hrs. 9 hr...

1 Medication administration-Eye  Mydriatics (apraclonidine/Iopidine) - Dilate the pupil  Reduces IOP 23-39% by stimulating alpha2 & beta2 receptors  Prevents ocular vasoconstriction-reduces ocular bp as well as aqueous humor formation  Used to inhibit perioperative IOP increases rather than treat glaucoma  Burning, eye pain, lacrimation, rare systemic effects: HTN, tachycardia, extrasystoles  Miotics (acetylcholine, pilocarpine)- Constrict the pupil  Cycloplegics (atropine, ...
