    ability to retain or eliminate C02
  13. major advantage of resp is
    increase absorption of 02 by cells
  14. s&s of pulmonary emboli
    • dyspnea
    • sob

    • tachycardia


    no JVD
  15. classic sign of anaphylaxis is
    hypotension

    as well as

    • unticaria
    • SOb
    • facial swelling
    • tachypnea
  16. tx for anaphylactic shock
    • 1mg EPI 1:10,000 IV
    • benadryl 25-50mg
  17. most frequent cause of anaphylasix
    • Bee
    • hornet
    • wasp
    • PCN injections
  18. s&s of pneumonia
    • fever
    • rhonchi
    • hot and dry skin
  19. epi dose for asthma
    .3-.5mg 1:1,000 SQ
  20. blue bloater
    • chronic bronchitis
    • fat and blue
  21. pink puffers
    • barrel chest
    • thin pursed lips for back pressure
    • EMPHYSEMA
  22. hemoptysis
    cough up blood
  23. CHF what side failure
    left side ventricular damage
  24. COPD tx
    02 and albuterol
  25. hyperventilation helps to correct
    resp acidosis
  26. sound assoc with lower airway obstruction
    wheezing
  27. neuro
    anaphylatic
    and
    septic cause__________ due to
    hypotension

    vasodilation
  28. distributive shocks
    • neuro
    • anaphylactic
    • septic
  29. carpal pedal spasm are side effect of
    hyperventilation
  30. hypertension and JVD
    emphysema
  31. treatment for pulmonary edema and CHF
    LMNO
  32. salt water drowning causes
    respiratory alkalosis
  33. orthopnea
    diff breathing while laying down
  34. long bone fx creates a risk of
    fat embolism
  35. minute volume
    RR X Tidal volume n one min
  36. inhalation
    decreases intrathoratic pressure

    ACTIVE
  37. volume in thoratic cavity increases, pressure decreases
    exhalation

    PASSIVE
  38. tidal volume
    amount of air inhaled and exhaled during one resp cycle
  39. average tidal volume in one resp
    500cc
  40. biots
    iregular breathing with periods of apnea generally increasing and decreasing
  41. what will happen to Pa02 in atelectasis
    it will fall
  42. respirations
    exchange of gases
  43. ventialtions
    body parts responsible for respirations
  44. pt that increase RBC production to increase hemoglobin capacity to breath
    • pink puffer
    • emphysema
  45. JVD is caused by
    • tension
    • right side heart failure
    • tamponade
    • traumatic axphysia
  46. JVD is best evaluated in
    semi-fowlers
  47. asthma tx
    • albuterol
    • epi
    • solu-medrol
  48. rescue breathing pushes diaphram increasing
    ventricular rate
