What is DVT... | partial or complete occlusion of a vein by a thrombus with inflammation to the vessel wall |
What is Chronic Venous Insufficiency? | impaired venous return due to destruction of valves or changes due to deep thrombophlebitis, leg trauma, or sustained elevation of venous pressure (CHF) |

Chronic Venous Insufficiency PE findings... | ~*trophic changes with brownish discoloration ~stasis leg ulcers ~edema of LE ~dermatitis ~cool to touch |
Management of Chronic Venous Insufficiency... | ~bedrest with LE elevated ~TED hose ~wt reduction if obese ~treatment of dermatitits or ulcers if indicated |
What is the action of ACEI's | expansion of blood vessels and decrease of resistance by lowering levels of angiotensin II. Allows blood to flow more easily & makes work easier for the heart |
What is the action of ARB's (Beta-Andrenergic Blocking Agents)? | keeps blood pressure from rising by prevention Angiotensin II from having any affects on the heart |
What is the action of BB's? | decreases the heart rate and cardiac output; makes the heart bet more slowly and with less force |
What is the action of CCB's? | interupts movement of Ca+ into cells of the heart and blood vessels; may decrease the heart's pumping strength and relax blood vessels |
What is the action of diuretics? | rids the body of excess fluids and Na+ through urination; helps relieve workload of the heart |
What is the action of vasodilators (nitrates)? | relaxes blood vessels and increases the supply of blood and oxygen to the heart while reducing its workload; often given to pt's who can't tolerate ACE |
What is the action of digitalis (digoxin)? | increases the force of the heart's contractions, which can be beneficial in systolic heart failure and for irregular heart beats |
