Pulmonary Test
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What means the process of recording? | Graphy |
| What means the process of measurement? | -metry |
| What is a recording or record of the electrical impulses of the heart produced by an electrocardiograph | ecg |
| Ultrasonic waves directed through the heart? | Echo |
| What state are the cardiac cells resting | polarized |
| What state are they recovering? | Repolarized |
| Upward movement away from the baseline in an ecg tracing | Positive deflection |
| What is a p wave? | Shows atrial depolarization; atrial chambers contract and the blood is pushed to the ventricles. |
| What wave represents atrial depolarization | P wave |
| What is a PR segment? | Isoelectric line; allows the atria to finish contracting |
| What is a QRS complex | Shows ventricular depolarization; atrial repolarization also occurs during this time, though it is hidden. The ventricles contract, pushing blood out of the heart. |
| What is a resting 12 lead ECG | electrocardiograph |
| Which electrodes is considered a ground electrode | Right leg electrode |
| What is lead one | Right and left arm |
| What is the placement of lead 2 | Right arm left leg |
| There is an artifact on lead one and 3 which one would you check | Left arm |
| There is an artifact on leads 2 and 3 which lead would you check | Left leg |
| What are standard leads? | The bipolar (standard) leads are named leads I, II, and III. They use the arm electrodes and the left leg electrode to create pictures of the vertical (or frontal) plane of the heart. |
| What are augmented leads | Augmented leads also provide information on the vertical (frontal) plane of the heart. These unipolar leads are augmented or increased in size on the tracing. Augmented leads use the right arm (RA), left arm (LA), and left leg (LL) electrodes. |
| What are precordial leads | unipolar leads. Each is a positive pole. provide information on the horizontal (front to back) plane of the heart. The six precordial leads are labeled V1, V2, V3, V4, V5, and V6 |
| Thermal ECG paper | small and large boxes. A small box is 1 × 1 mm and the large box is 5 × 5 mm. The large box is made up of 25 small boxes (5 rows and 5 columns). It has a thicker border than the small boxes. |
| The patient's heart rate is 150 bpm what is this | Tachycardia |
| The patients tracing shows very tall waveforms what changes should you make before obtaining the tracing | Decrease down to 5mm/vm |
| What is a default chart speed | 25 mm/s |
| What is a default gain or sensitivity | 10 mm/mV |
| What electrode is placed on the fourth intercostal space at the right sternal edge | Chest V1 (red) |
| Fifth intercostal space midclavicular line | Chest V4 (blue) |
| Condition place electrodes on rt side of chest using same intercostal space switching right limb and lead wires | Dextrocardia |
| Pulmonary function test you can do at home that measures exhaled air | Peak flow |
| This test determines how effectively gas travels from the lungs to the bloodstream | Lung diffusion capacity |
| Whats the max air that can be forcefully and rapidly exhaled after taking full inhalation? | Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) |
| Max volume of air remaining in the lungs after exhale | Residual Volume (RV) |
| Procedure using a metered dose inhaler | Place one to two inches from mouth breathe in Hold your breath for 10 seconds (or count to 10) and then breathe out. |
| Type of artifact that is upward and downward movement of wave form where isoelectric lines shift locations | Wandering baseline |
| artifact appears as jagged peaks with irregular height and spacing | Somatic Tremor |
| What artifact presents small spikes? | AC Interference |
| Artifact occurs when electrons are old with poor skin preparation | Wandering Baseline |
| This artifact occurs when tracing looks normal at the beginning but then connection is interrupted | Interrupted Baseline |
| Patient is talking during ecg what artifact could occur | Somatic Tremor |
| Lead wires are wrapped to closely together what artifact would appear on tracing | AC Interference |
| This arrhythmia occurs when the atria contracts sooner than they should | Premature Atrial Contractions |
| This arrhythmia occurs when the ventricles quiver uncontrollably | Ventricular Fibrillation |
| What instructions do you give for exercise stress test | The patient should wear clothes and shoes for exercising. - The provider will indicate what daily medications should be taken prior to the test. - The patient should not take a dose of Viagra, Cialis, or Levitra for erectile dysfunction 48 hours before |
| This test allows patient to record ecg when symptoms occur for up to 30 days | Cardiac Event Recorder |
| This monitor is worn over the heart for 24/48 hours. | Holter monitor |
| Regarding maintenance of an electrocardiograph? | All of the above |
| What is connected to the inhaler to hold the mist until the user can breath in | spacer |
| How many times should the spirometer test be repeated | 3 times |
| Patient is getting nebulizer treatment what position should they be in | Sitting up right |
| Pt is getting a 12 lead ECG how many electrodes is placed on pt? | 10 |
