incorrect
6.
what should be monitored on a pt taking a beta blocker?
incorrect
7.
what is peripheral vascular resistance?
incorrect
8.
is a powerful vasoconstrictor which will increase BP levels
incorrect
9.
what do beta blockers do?
incorrect
10.
what is a beta blocker drug?

11.
beta II is used for ___
incorrect
12.
what BP reading shows orthostatic hypotension?
incorrect
13.
what are the signs of hyponatremia and hypokalemia?
incorrect
14.
what do aldosterone receptor antagonists do?
incorrect
15.
what diagnostic assessment may indicate cardiomegaly?
incorrect
16.
what is a common side effect of ACE inhibitors?
incorrect
17.
increase in cardiac OP = increase in blood to kidneys = ___ dieresis that leads to ____ in BP
incorrect
18.
with hypertension, the ____ system does not work properly
incorrect
19.
what are the 2 types of beta blokers?
incorrect
20.
what is the result of Ca channel blockers?
A.
vasdilation and decrease BP
B.
they depress Na reabsorption in ASCENDING LOOP OF HENLE and promote K excretion---basically they get rid of water, Na, and K
C.
"OLOL" DRUGS---propranolol (inderal)
D.
coughing
E.
increase dieresis and decrease BP-->this occurs if there is normal kidney function
F.
angiotensin II
G.
irregular pulse and muscle weakness
H.
cardioselective and non-cardioselective
I.
they lower the BP by blocking aldosterone binding at the mineralocorticiod receptor site in teh kidney, heart, blood vessels, and brain...so basically receptors aren't recieving aldosterone therefore not holding in Na and water
J.
hyperkalemia and hyponatremia
K.
vessel constriction or dilation, which is controlled by autonomic nervous system and the hormones--epinephrine and norepinephrine
L.
lungs
M.
arterial baroreceptor system
N.
less than 30% fat, less than 10% sat fat, and less than 300mg/day cholesterol
O.
chest x-ray
P.
loop diuretics
Q.
they prevent Na and water reabsorption in the DISTAL TUBULES and promote K excretion---so basically they help get rid of water, Na, and K
R.
a decrease in BP 20 S or 10 D when pt changes positions
S.
they block beta receptors in the heart and peripheral vessels, this reducing cardiac OP and BP
T.
fatigue, weakness, depression, sexual dysfunction all due to lack of O2
