After screening for potential contraindications, which medications should be administered as initial therapies to the patient with suspected ACS? Correct Answer: 1. Nitroglycerin 2. Aspirin What fi... ndings on ECG suggest non-ST-segment elevation ACS (NSTE-ACS)? Correct Answer: 1. ST-segment depression 2. Transient T-wave elevation 3. T-wave inversion Which findings on a 12-lead ECG would be expected in a patient with high-risk non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE-ACS)? Correct Answer: 1. T-wave inversion in two or more contiguous leads 2. ST-segment depression in two or more contiguous leads New ST-segment elevation on a 12-lead ECG suggests __________. Correct Answer: Myocardial infarction When auscultating lung sounds in a patient with left ventricular dysfunction,On rapid assessment, Mr. van Essen is responsive and his airway is patent. He appears pale and distressed. He is diaphoretic. Select the tools to use during the primary assessment to gather more information about Mr. van Essen's clinical condition. Correct Answer: 1. Pulse Oximetry 2. Cardiac Monitoring 3. Stethoscope 4. Blood pressure monitoring What is your interpretation of the rhythm on the cardiac monitor? First, identify the rhythm. Correct Answer: Mr. van Essen has a narrow-complex supraventricular tachycardia and the rhythm is regular.At minimum, what initial actions should be performed within 10 minutes of Mrs. Archer's arrival at the emergency department? Correct Answer: 1. Conduct the primary assessment. 2. Establish cardiac monitoring. 3. Obtain a full set of vital signs. 4. Order a brain imaging study (CT or MRI). 5. Draw blood for laboratory studies. Which additional assessment should the team perform emergently if it will not delay brain imaging? Correct Answer: 12-lead ECG What is the time frame for ordering brain imaging? Correct Answer: Within 10 minutesOn rapid assessment, Mr. Jenkins is responsive and his airway is patent. His body language indicates that he is experiencing retrosternal pain or discomfort. He is not visibly dyspneic, cyanotic or diaphoretic and appears to be in minimal distress. What actions should the team take as part of the primary assessment? Correct Answer: Establish pulse oximetry Establish cardiac monitoring Assess capillary refill time Obtain a full set of vital signs Primary assessment findings are as follows: Airway: Patent and self-maintained Breathing: Respiratory rate, 18 breaths/min; no dyspnea; pulse oximetry, 98% on room air Circulation: Heart rate, 75 bpm; sinus rhythm with an occasional PVC; blood pressure 130/90 mmHg; normal pulses; capillary refill, 2 seconds; skin warm and acyanotic [Show More]
