1
New cards

what kind of chest pain can radiate, so we always give famotidine upon ED chest pain?

under what % EF is heart failure

40

33
New cards

what do we have to hold when doing a stress test

34
New cards

when doing the exercise portion of a stress test we make them treadmill while what is on them to see if reproducable pain

ekg

35
New cards

nuclear imaging for resting stress test : pt is NPO< then injected with

nucleotides

36
New cards

resting portion of the stress test makes sure that there is enough blood getting to the heart even when the blood is shunted to the

37
New cards

dr inserts a wire and a balloon to open up plaque, most of the time a stent is placed

angioplasty

38
New cards

before injecting this chekc BUN, CKD because _________ is nephrotoxic

contrast

40
New cards

post cath care includes checking teh ________ of where the cath originally entered and if its bleedin

perfusion

41
New cards

if theres any bleeding/bruising from a cath insertion spot use p_________ and a towel/s________

pressure sandbag

42

if we enter. a cath thru femoral artery we should after check what pulses/ put pulse ox where

pedal toe

4

44
New cards


procedure that starts with splitting the sternum, putting pt on ecmo bypass, then taking a leg or a mammary vein to bypass

cabg

45
New cards

which side HF backs up into lungs

49
New cards

chf is overload of waht

fluid

50
New cards

in what kind of HF chamers are too thin/weak to pump bc muscle is damaged

52
New cards

how do we diagnose HF

echo

53
New cards
