PCCN Questions and Answers With Verified Solutions Coronary artery perfusion is dependent upon: A. diastolic pressure B. systolic pressure C. afterload D. systemic vascular resistance (SVR) A. diastolic pressure Diastolic pressure in the aortic root is higher than left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP), the pressure exerted on the ventricular muscle at the end of diastole when the ventricle is full. This enables blood to flow from a higher pressure through open arteries t...

.A nurse is assessing a client who is 12hr postoperative following a colon resection. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the surgeon? 1. Heart rate 90/min 2. Absent bowel sounds → normal findings after major bowel surgery; takes several days to return to normal. 3. Hgb 8.2 g/dl 4. Gastric pH of 3.0 Rationale: Normal Hgb is 13-18M g/dl, 12-16 g/dl. This may indicate a possible hemorrhaging. 2. A nurse is caring for a client who has diabetes insipidus. Whic...

How are lipids carried on lipoproteins in the blood because they are insoluble in water Proteins found on lipoproteins apolipoproteins Density of lipoprotein with less lipid and greater protein more dense Density of lipoprotein with more lipids and less protein less dense Major bloodstream lipoproteins chylomicrons, vLDL, LDL, HDL Chylomicrons least dense of the lipoproteins and are triglyceride-rich particles that are formed in the intestine Function of Chylo...

ECG interpretation Correct Answer-(understand/know) ECG - rate calculation Correct Answer-(understand/know) P waves Correct Answer-represents time for atrial depolarization (contraction); should be upright; 0.06-0.12; disturbance indicates conduction problem within atria QRS interval Correct Answer-measured from beginning to end of QRS complex; represents time for ventricular depolarization (contraction); <0.12; disturbance indicates conduction problem in bundle branches or ventricle...
