The patient has a right, mid and lower lobe pneumonia. Which of the following is an appropriate intervention for the patient? A) Provide fluids and expectorants B) Maintain in supine positions C) Hold enteral nutrition D) Avoid turning to the right side -:- D) Avoid turning to the right side Gravity will increase perfusion to the dependent lung tissue. The "good" lung in this case is the LEFT side. Turning the patient to the right may precipitate hypoxemia by increasing perfusion ...

Advanced pharmacology for NP Exam 2 300+QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ALL CORRECT Ray has been diagnosed with hypertension and it is determined that an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor is needed. Prior to prescribing this drug, the nurse practitioner (NP) should assess for: Decreased renal function Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are the drug of choice in treating hypertension in diabetic patients because they: All of the above: Improve insulin sensitivity Improve rena...

What value reflects right ventricular preload? - CVP or RA pressure In hypovolemic shock, does SVR increase or decrease? - increase CVP and PAOP are a measure of preload or after load? - preload Heart rate x stroke volume =? - cardiac output Stroke volume is dependent on what three concepts? - preload, contractility, and after load PAOP is a measure of which ventricle? - left SVR measures which ventricle? - left PVR measures which ventricle? - right PVR and SVR are a measure of preload o...

ACNP I: Hemodynamics Questions and Answers

Tx to decrease preload - -Diuretics -Dilators (nitrates, nitroprusside, morphine) Define preload - -Preload is the volume/pressure in the ventricle at the end of DIASTOLE after the AV valves close, just prior to ejection -As preload increases, SV and CO will increase up to a point -Too high of a preload may lead to heart failure -Preload will seldom be elevate if the heart is without disease and there are no metabolic abnormalities Cardiac output equation - CO = HR x SV Components of str...
