Pathophysio Test 1

QuestionAnswer
factors affect stress response hardiness, sense of coherence, resilience, attitude
GAS- General adaptation syndrome physical response to stress
GAS stages 1. alarm reaction 2. resistance 3. exhaustion
alarm reaction perception of stressor, fight or flight, decreased resistance
resistance adaption or advance to exhaustion
exhaustion some signs of alarm again, reversed by external sources
stress affects three systems: nervous, endocrine & immune
nociception receptive nerve endings that respond to harmful stimuli, transmit the pain, communicates tissue damage to the CNS
nociception processes transduction, transmission, perception, modulation
transduction conversion of mechanical stimulus into a neural action potential, inflammation increases likelihood of transduction
transmission movement of pain from site of transduction to brain
perception pain is recognized and responded to
modulation pathways that exert inhibitory effects on transmission of pain, at periphery, spinal cord, brain stem, cerebral cortex
sympathetic nervous system activation increased heart rate, increased respiratory rate, increased blood pressure
Three categories of medications nonopioid, opioid, adjuvant
analgesic ceiling increasing dose above upper limit produces no greater pain relief
parenteral routes intramuscular, subcutaneous, intravenous
cortisol increase glucose, inhibit inflammatory, immunodepresant, increase cardiac, increase oxygen consumption
Stress- Nervous: Cerebral cortex plans course of action
Stress- Nervous: Limbic mediator of emotions & behavior that ensure survival
Stress- Nervous: Hypothalamus regulates sympathetic & parasympathetic connection between nervous & endocrine
acute pain sympathetic: increased heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure
chronic pain behavioral: decreased movement, fatigue, withdrawal from others
Visceral pain obstruction, internal organs
Somatic pain aching, localized, bone, joint, muscle, skin
Neuralpathic pain damage to peripheral or cns, disregulation of nervous system, abnormal processing of stimuli
Renal failure dont give patient potassium
hyperalkemia high potassium, more than 5.1, muscle weakness, tingling, low blood pressure, bowel sounds
hyperalkemia treatment potassium excreting diuretics, rapid IV of dextrose & insulin, if blood transfusion use fresh blood
hypoalkemia low potassium, under 3.5, weakness, leg & abdomen cramps, dizzy when stand
hypoalkemia treatment administer potassium
Isotonic solutions in body 0.9 Saline, lactated ringers, 5% dextrose in water, 5% dextrose in 0.225% saline
blood ph 7.35- 7.45
blood pco2 35-45 mmHg
blood hco3 22-27 mEq/L
blood po2 80-100 mmHg
Stress & immune function decreased natural killer cells, decreased cytokines, decreased making lymphocytes
adrenal glands & aldosterone aid in controlling extracellular fluid volume by regulating the amount of sodium reabsorbed by the kidneys
antidiuretic hormone regulates osmotic pressure of extracellular fluid by regulating the amount of water reabsorbed by the kidney
