Q

blood pressure

Q

tools for measuring blood pressure

A

- sphygmomanometer

34
Q

Theory blood pressure

A

Q

equation to calculate BPM from T

atrial depolarization

42
Q

where is this event initiated

mid to late diastole by SA node

43
Q

what two electrical events coincide with QRS complex

ventricular depolarization

hides atrial repolarization

44
Q

what is the myocardium of the ventricles doing during the S-T segment? What name do we give this part of the cardiac cycle

Q

which portion of the ECG trace indicates the total time the ventricles are filling

A

end of T to next R

46
Q

what is ventricular hypertrophy? How does this condition affect the ECG

A

hypertrophy is overgrowth of ventricles, muscle wall is bigger. This will cause a bigger than normal QRS complex

47
Q

what is pulse deficit? What might cause pulse defici

A
  • when apical and superficial pulses don’t
    match.
  • may cause arrythmia
48
Q

what is pulse pressure

A

pulse pressure is systolic - diastolic

49
Q

why does athersoclerosis result in high blood pressure

A

because athrosclerosis is the hardening of the arteries

50
Q

what is purpose of inflating a sphygmomanometer before determining blood pressure

A

to close off the arteries

51
Q

when taking blood pressure what sound do you listen to determine systolic pressure. what happens to blood vessel to cause this sound

A
  • korotkoff sounds.

- blood is moving through paritally closed vessel

52
Q

what do you listen for to determine diastolic blood pressure. What happens to vessel to cause this sound

A
  • listening for silence
  • blood is moving through an open vessel
    which causes no sound
53
Q

what happens to cause the lub sound

A
  • happens when AV valves close
