DESCRIBE DISEASE PROCESS AFFECTING PATIENT (INCLUDE PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF DISEASE PROCESS)
Angina is usually caused by atherosclerotic disease. Almost invariably, angina is associated with a significant obstruction of at least one major coronary artery. Normally, the myocardium extracts a large amount of oxygen from the coronary circulation to meet its continuous demands. When demand increases, flow through the coronary arteries needs to be increased. When there is a blockage in a coronary artery, flow cannot be increased and ischemia results.
DIAGNOSTIC TESTS (REASON FOR TEST AND RESULTS)
PATIENT INFORMATION ANTICIPATED PHYSICAL FINDINGS
-12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) such as T-wave inversion, ST-segment elevation, or the development of an abnormal Q wave (may show changes indicative of ischemia)
- Laboratory studies are performed (creatine kinase, troponin, myoglobin, CKMB)
- exercise/pharmacologic stress test in which the heart is monitored continuously by an ECG, echocardiogram
- nuclear scan or invasive procedure
-mild indigestion to a choking or heavy sensation in the upper chest.
-severity ranges from discomfort to agonizing pain.
-It’s often felt deep in the chest behind the sternum (retrosternal area).
-Typically, the pain or discomfort is poorly localized and may radiate to the neck, jaw, shoulders, and inner aspects of the upper arms, usually the left arm.
-patient often feels tightness or a heavy choking or strangling sensation that has a viselike, insistent quality
ANTICIPATED NURSING INTERVENTIONS
-~ The nurse assesses the patient’s pain level (PQRST)
~Pharmacologic therapy (nitroglycerin, anticoagulants, beta blockers, etc.)
~Measuring vital signs and observing for signs of respiratory distress.
~ 12-lead ECG is usually obtained and assessed for ST-segment and T-wave changes
~ The nurse administers oxygen therapy if the patient’s respiratory rate is increased or if the oxygen

Reflection Questions
1. How did the scenario make you feel?
The scenario was different from any other one I have completed so far. I was surprised to see patient to become unresponsive. I was scared at first because I didn’t what to do, but then I realized the best thing to do was CPR. It felt good to have followed mostly the correct steps throughout the scenario.
2. What could have been the causes of Carl Shapiro’s ventricular fibrillation?
The lab results revealed that his troponin and CK-MB were high, which are indicative of damage to his heart tissues. The patient also has a history of smoking and obesity and suffers from severe stress related to work.
3. When performing CPR for Carl Shapiro, what are quality indicators you are performing resuscitation correctly?
From what I reviewed in the suggested readings, chest compression fraction >80% Compression rate of 100-120/min. Compression depth of at least 50 mm (2 inches) in adults and at least 1/3 the AP dimension of the chest in infants and children. No excessive ventilation.-High-quality CPR includes compressing hard and fast, allowing complete recoil after each compression, reducing hands-off time by minimizing interruptions in compressions, switching providers every 2 minutes, and avoiding excessive ventilation
4. Discuss safety aspects during defibrillation.
Do not touch the patient during defibrillation (clearing bed at least twice before defibrillating), do not allow any objects to touch the bed, ensure the patient is dry before using the AED, do not use AED over a pacemaker/metallic device, ensure the AED is functional, ensure pads are in correct position, ensure patient does not have nitroglycerin patch, ensure there are no flammable substances (remove oxygen from the bed)
5. If Carl Shapiro would have had return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), what would your next interventions be? I would first assess the carotid pulse, administer epinephrine, administer amiodarone
6. What key elements would you include in the handoff report for this patient? Consider the SBAR (situation, background, assessment, recommendation) format.
S- This is 54-year old Carl Shapiro experienced VFIB, code team was called, emergency response measures were implemented to include CPR and AED shock. B- 54-year-old male. He was seen in the Emergency Department at 1:30 p.m. for complaints of chest pain, diaphoresis, and shortness of breath. He was treated in the Emergency Department with aspirin and two doses of sublingual nitroglycerin. Chest pain improved with nitroglycerin administration. A- Patient started breathing spontaneously again. R- Recommend patient cardiac status is closely monitored
7. If Carl Shapiro’s family members had been present at the bedside during the arrest, describe what you could have done to support them during this crisis.
The patient is the main concern during
this situation, but I would ensure they were
escorted out of the room so the focus could be on the patient, but if they insisted to
stay I would reassure them that we are doing everything we can to ensure his health
and safet
The patient is the main concern during this situation, but I would ensure they were escorted out of the room so the focus could be on the patient, but if they insisted to stay I would reassure them that we are doing everything we can to ensure his health and safety
8. What would you do differently if you were to repeat this scenario? How would your patient care change?
I would have reviewed the suggested readings on cardiac arrest and the protocol more in-depth. I felt that I knew exactly what to do already, but this simulation showed me that the steps are not so simple and any small change away from the correct technique can cause serious damage to the patient.
