Resumen del Recurso

Pregunta Respuesta
pt with NV and dehydration, NA 152. expect which lab values? a. elevated urine specific gravity, elevated hemoglobin, decreased serum osmolality b. elevated urine specific gravity, elevated hemoglobin, elevated serum osmolality c. decreased urine specific gravity, elevated hemoglobin, decreased serum osmolality d. decreased urine specific gravity, decreased hemoglobin, elevated serum osmolality b. elevated urine specific gravity, elevated hemoglobin, elevated serum osmolality "if osmo is high you're likely dry"
which pt is highest risk for hyperkalemia? a. GI bleeding with admin of 3 units PRBCs b. severe vomiting and dehydration with admin 4L LR c. heart failure pt started on an ACE inhibitor and spironolactone d. refeeding syndrome after being NPO for 5 days c. heart failure pt started on an ACE inhibitor and spironolactone ACE blunts aldosterone- in the presence of aldosterone K is excreted by the renal tubules
development of a u wave on ECG is indicative of what? a. hypokalemia b. hypermagnesemia c. hypophosphatemia d. hypercalcemia a. hypokalemia also can cause ST depression, PVCs, prolonged QT interval potentiates digoxin activity
what ECG change would you expect in a pt with K of 6.2? a. prolonged PR interval b. shortened QT interval c. tall peaked T waves d. prominent U wave c. tall peaked T waves Give insulin to transport K back into cell NA-K pump: NA-depolarization, K-repolarization (T wave)
patient in torsades de pointes. K 2.9 and mag 1.1 which electrolyte will you replace first? a. magnesium b. potassium a. magnesium
signs of hypermagnesemia include: a. tetany, rigid extremities b. muscle weakness, lethargy c. decreased deep tendon reflexes, tetany d. lethargy, torsades de pointes b. muscle weakness, lethargy When mag is high pts get "mag drag"
65 yo admitted after cardiac arrest. Labs K 4.7, Mg 5.2, Na 148. pt is hypotensive and flaccid. Which should you anticipate? a. emergent dialysis b. administer 1 amp calcium gluconate IV c. administer nebulized mucomyst d. administer kayexalate b. administer 1 amp calcium gluconate IV
signs of hypocalcemia include: a. tall peaked T waves b. Chvostek's sign c. ST depression d. hepatojugular reflex sign b. Chvostek's sign facial twitch when tapping cheek
when taking pt's BP arm and hand muscles spasm. you suspect which electrolyte imbalance? a. hyperphosphatemia b. hypercalcemia c. hyperkalemia d. hypermagnesemia a. hyperphosphatemia Trousseau's sign
hypocalcemia s/s bronchospasm, bleeding Ca needed to clot
If electrolytes are low you might see... alkolosis if you drop acid you get high
hyperkalemia treatment insulin (transport Kback into cell) albuteral (speeds up Na-Kpump) dialysis (removes K) Kayexalate (sodium polystyrene sulfonate)
