Most Important Drugs Hypertensive Ace Inhibitors Beta Blockers Ca+ Channel Blockers Digoxin/Diuretics
If client is borderline Hypertensive Change diet, exercise, intermediate fasting
New Patient for hypertensive teaching? -Rise slowly to prevent orthostatic hypotension (may have Syncope episode) -Take WT in the morning, naked, before eating
Loop Diuretics always end in? IDE
Loop Diuretics Action THEY WASTE POTASSIUM. THE MORE YOU PEE THE MORE YOU DEPLETE YOUR POTASSIUM. -Inhibit reabsorption of sodium and chloride in the loop of Henle
Loop Diuretics Uses (conditions it treats) -HF -EDEMA -HYPERTENSION
LOOP diuretics can -Increase urine output that will reduce edema. -Could lead to hypo tension (b/c if peeing a lot could drop BP)
Loop Diuretics can cause HR to increase or decrease Tachycardia (peeing out fluids putting my body under stress causing heart rate)
Loop Diuretics and hydration -Decrease in skin tugor means dehydration
Loop Diuretics medicatgion examples -furosemide (Lasix) -toresmide (Demadex) -bumetandie (Bumex)
Loop Diuretics Contradictions -severe electrolyte loss
Loop Diuretics Adverse reactions -electrolyte imbalance orthostatic hypotension
Loop Diuretics Nursing -Monitor I & O
Loop Diuretics Labs -Electrolyte levels
When should Loop Diuretics be taken? IN THE AM so they don't be up all night with nocturnal.
Should loop diuretic pts be on any percautions? PTS are HIGH fall risk, so they need precautions for falls
Loop Diuretics you should establish? -Establish baseline of labs and vital signs before starting diuretics. CMP (comprehensive metabolic panel)
dont move on until you get loop diuretics down pact you can do it!
Name all Drug Classes for Diuretics 1) Loop Diuretics 2)Potassium sparing diuretics 3)Thiazide Diuretics 4)Osmotic Diuretics
Osmotic Diuretics action -Pulls fluid but mainly water -prevent reabsorption of water and solutes
Osmotic Diuretics blank blank
Osmotic Diuretics Example medications Mannitol (most common)
Osmotic Diuretics Nursing -Monitor I & O -Fluid & electrolyte levels
Do not give Mannitol with -ACTIVE INTRACRANIAL BLEEDING (its already bleeding and mannitol will make it bleed more by pulling more fluid and make it hemorrhage) -They will become hypovolemia (low blood volume) -A lower blood volume of blood circulating in your system
Mannitol given IV if they getting it IV check for crystalize adverse reaction that means it is not passing through
lets go you got it ladies
we gone ace next test unit 4 test all A's
we almost there we got this
Potassium Sparing Diuretics are the -weakest form of diurectis
Potassium Sparing Diuretics patients usually take what else along with potassium sparring usually taking Lasix or Torrisumide
Potassium Sparing Diuretics uses Promotes retention of sodium and water (b/c it is going to block aldosterone and aldoserone is what allows water and sodium to pass through dont need to kow for test)
Potassium Sparing Diuretics Medication Examples -(generic) spironolactone, Aldactone (brand name) is the most common -
Potassium Sparing Diuretics uses (helps treat?) -HF -EDEMA -CIRRHOSIS -HYPERTENSION
Potassium Sparing Diuretics Contraindications hyperkalemia (HIGH POTASSIUM), severe renal failure
Potassium Sparing Diuretics Adverse reactions -Hyperkalemia -gynecomastia (male breast)
Potassium Sparing Diuretics Nursing -Monitor I &O -electrolyte imbalances -avoid salt substitutes (can increase potassium levels)
Potassium Normal Level range 3.0 to 5.0
Potassium Sparing Diuretics Labs check electrolyte levels
Food to avoid while taking Potassium Sparing Diuretics 1) Bananas 2)orange juice 3) raisins 4)prunes
just keep swimming swimming swimming
Thiazide Diuretics -promotes DIURESES going to increase urine output while decreasing cardiac output and sodium
Thiazide Diuretics action inhibit reabsorption of sodium ad chloride in the ascending loop of Henle
Thiazide Diuretics examples hydrochlorothiazide (HTCZ most common)
Thiazide Diuretics adverse reactions -fluid and electrolytes imbalances -asthma -gout attacks (great toe, extremely painful, swollen, red, comes from too much uric acid found in seafood come from salt water) -uric acid inflames gout (allonpurulol)
Thiazide Diuretics i feel like i missing something
Thiazide Diuretics i think i need another slide about this
List of Antihypertensive Drugs 1) Calcium Channel Blockers 2)Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors (ACE INHIBITORS) 3)Angiotensin II Receptor Antagonist (ARB's) 4) Beta Adrenergic Blockers
Antihypertensive Drugs are all SR (SUSTAINED RELEASED) cannot be altered in any way
Antihypertensive drugs and alcohol facts -Alcohol/ ETOH can increase hypotensive stage (if BP gets to LOW will get syncope/pass out)
Antihypertensive Drugs can be stopped abruptly true or false False do not stop taking abruptly
Antihypertensive Calcium channel blockers examples amoldipine (Norvasc) nifedipine (Procardia) END IN PINE diltiazem (cardizem) verapamil (calan)
Antihypertensive Calcium channel blockers helps with -Relax cardiac muscles.
Would you give Antihypertensive Calcium channel blockers to a patient with heart attack Yes it will cause the heart to relax
What else does Antihypertensive Calcium channel blockers help with? oxygen consumption it helps retain oxygen
Antihypertensive Calcium channel blockers action blood vessels relaxing, reducing hearts workload, increasing oxygen to the heart
Antihypertensive Calcium channel blockers adverse reactions -orthostatic hypotension, -perephial edema -bradycardia
If patient comes in with heart attack symptoms, what do you implement M.O.N.A. Morphine, oxygen, nitroglycerin (3 does in 15 min), asprin
may need another slide may need another slide idk yet
may need another slide extra just in case need to add extra slid
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE INHIBITORS) uses going to dilate blood vessels to increase the amount of blood pumped by the heart meaning its going to decrease BP
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE INHIBITORS) examples (Lotensin), captopril (Capoten) lisinopril (prinivil/zestril) ALL END IN PRIL
Are Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE INHIBITORS) ok for diabetic patients True
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE INHIBITORS) asses ? Assess BP, AP, RESPITORY STATUS/COUGH
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE INHIBITORS) CONTRAINDICATIONS hyperkalemia,
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE INHIBITORS) Adverse reactions: 1) cough (ITS OK IT’S A PART OF SIDE EFFECT OF MEDICAITON), 2) bronchospasm (CAN'T GIVE THEM THIS IF THEY ALREAY HAVE B/C AIRWAY ALREADY BLOCKED) 3) angioedema 4)digoxin toxicity (THAT’S WHY WE ASSESS FOR BP AND AP)
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE INHIBITORS) NURSING Take one hour before meals
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE INHIBITORS) NURSING FACTS DECREASE PRE-LOAD WHILE INCREASING CARDIAC OUTPUT WHICH WILL LEAD TOO AND INHIBITOR TO REDUCE THE AFTERLOAD ANYTHLING ENDING LOLO CANT GIVE THEM TO PTS WITH BRONCHOSPASMS
next next
next next
Angiotensin II Receptor Antagonists (ARB'S) end in (ARBs)ALL END IN STAN

Angiotensin II Receptor Antagonists (ARBs) Nursing -avoid taking grapefruit juice
Angiotensin II Receptor Antagonists (ARBs) african americans not shown to be as effective in African Americans (COMBINE IT WITH ANOTHER MED LIKE A DIURETIC HCTZ), monitor vitals, edema
Beta Adrenergic Blocker asses ASSES BP AND APICAL PULSE
Beta Adrenergic Blocker SBP AND PULSE - IF THEY HAVE SBP (SYSTOLIC BP) IF LESS THAN 90 OR AP LESS THAN 60 CONTACT THE PHYSICIAN

Beta Adrenergic Blocker Adverse effect bradycardia orthostatic hypotension impotence (ERCTILE DYSFUNCTION)
Beta Adrenergic Blocker African Americans, and Asians -BETTER BP MEDICINE FOR AFRICAN AMERICANS -ASIAN POPULATION NEED LOWER DOSE B/C THEY METABOLIZE IT SLOWE

List of Antianginal and Vasodilation drug 1)Nitrates 2) 3)
Nitrates Actions relax the smooth muscle layer of blood vessels
Nitrates uses relieve pain of acute angina attack, prevent angina attacks,
Nitrates example medications isosorbide, nitroglycerin
You should avoid what taking Nitrates? IF THEY ARE TAKING MED THEY SHOULD NOT SMOKE (SMOKING CONTRICT BLOOD VESSELS COULD CAUSE HEART ATTACK)
