|
||||

Renin activates angiotensin I formation | ACE converts angiotensin 1 to angiotensin II (potent vasoconstrictor)
🗑
|

ACE converts angiotensin 1 to angiotensin II (potent vasoconstrictor) | II also includes aldosterone secretion from the adrenal gland (NA & H2o retention)
🗑
|
||||
II also includes aldosterone secretion from the adrenal gland (NA & H2o retention) | Increase blood pressure
🗑
|
||||
Causes of CHF factors | Increase strain on the heart b/c interference with blood supply to heart. Increase in workload to pump blood through narrowed, stiffened vessels.
🗑
|
||||
Conditions that Increase Cardiac Output | Infection, stress, hyperthyroidism, Preganancy, Anemia
🗑
|
||||
Heart Failure Clinical Manifestations | Decreased cardiac output. LEFT ventricular failure. RIGHT sided failure.
🗑
|
||||
Left Ventricular Failure (Lungs) | Increased pressure in the left side of the heart backs up to the pulmonary system.
🗑
|
||||
Cardiac Output | The amount of blood the heart pumps out in 1 minute. 4-8l/min
🗑
|
||||
Left Ventricular Failure (Fluid) | Increased permeability to the capillaries causes fluid to be pushed into the pulmonary capillary bed resulting in pulmonary edema and pleural effusions
🗑
|
||||
Left Ventricular Failure | Inability of the left ventricle to effectively pump enough blood to meet needs of body tissues.
🗑
|
||||
S/S Left Ventricular Failure | Decreased Cardiac output. Pulmonary congestion.
(Coughing, tiredness, Swelling in ankles and thighs).
🗑
|
||||
Why does Left Ventricular Failure often occur 1st? | The left ventricle is most often affected by coronary atherosclerosis and HTN
🗑
|
||||
Right Ventricular Failure | Most often caused by left-sided failure, but Chronic Pulmonary Disease & Pulmonary HTN also cause this.
🗑
|
||||
Right Sided Heart Failure | Results in fluid accumulation in systemic circulation (Poor Venous Return). -> RV unable to pump blood to lungs b/c of increased pulmonary pressures -> Patients retain Sodium which worsens edema
🗑
|
||||
Dependent Edema | Edema of ankles when patient is standing or sitting. May shift to sacral region when prone.
🗑
|
||||
Pitting edema | When pressure is applied, pressure area becomes indented. When pressure is released, indentation disappears over time.
🗑
|
||||
RIGHT Ventricular Failure S/S | Nocturia, Organ Dysfunction (Hepatomegaly w/ right upper quadrant pain, ABD edema (farts, anorexia, nausea, ABD distention), wieght gain, JVD
🗑
|
||||
Heart Failure Subjective Data | Dyspnea, Orthopnea, Cough
🗑
|
||||
Heart Failure Objective Data | Decrased Cardiac Output, Right Sided failure on digestive organs, cyanosis.
🗑
|
||||
Dx Tests for CHF | Chest X-ray, Electocardiography (ECG), Echocardiography, Exercise Stress testing, Cardiac Catheterization
🗑
|
||||
Lab Tests of CHF | ABG (hypoxemia & acidosis), LFT, Serum Electrolytes & Enzymes (Na, Mg, K, BUN, Creat)
🗑
|
||||
Digitalis Preparations (Cardiac Glycosides) | Improve cardiac output and increase contractile force of ventricles. Also slows heart rate.
🗑
|
||||
Heart Failure Drug Therapy | Diuretics, Nitrates, ACE Inhibitors
🗑
|
||||
Diuretics | Reduce excess fluid and sodium stored in tissues
🗑
|
||||
Nitrates | Peripheral vascular resistance, increase left ventricular output, increase left ventricular emptying, and increase cerebral and renal blood flow.
🗑
|
||||
ACE Inhibitors | Decrease peripheral vascular resistance, improve cardiac output and studies have shown to extend and improve the lives of the patient with heart failure.
🗑
|
||||
1L of fluid | 1kg or 2.2 lbs
🗑
|
||||
1+ trace | Slight, rapid
🗑
|
||||
2+ Mild | 4mm (0-1/4 in), 10-15 seconds
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
4+ Severe | 8mm (1/2-1 in), 2-5 Minutes
🗑
|
||||
Nursing Management for Heart Failure | Prevent Disease Progression, and Complications
🗑
|
||||
Pulmonary Edema | Accumulation of fluid in the air sacs (alveoli) in the lungs caused primarily/ most often by heart failure.
🗑
|
||||
Process of pulmonary edema | Blood from L side backs up into the lungs-> 1.Fluid accumulates in the interstitial lung tissue and alveoli 2.decrease gas exchange -> Resp. Distress; frothy sputum; may be blood tinged
🗑
|
||||

|
||||
