heart rate below 60 beats per minute

bradycardia

heart rate above 100 beats per minute

tachycardia

heart chamber that receives blood from the lungs via the pulmonary vein

left atrium

heart chamber that receives blood from the body via the inferior and superior vena cavae

right atrium

heart chamber that pumps blood to the body via and aortic artery

left ventricle

heart chamber that pumps blood to the lungs via the pulmonary artery

right ventricle

period of ventricular contraction

systole

period of ventricle filling

diastole

sound created by the closure of the mitral and tricuspid valves

sound created by the closure of the aortic and pulmonic valves

ventricular sound occurring in early diastole

sound created by blood hitting a stiff ventricular wall

sound created when the pulmonic valve closes slightly after the aortic valve

S2 split

sound created when the tricuspid valve closes slightly after the mitral valve

S1 split

normal sound created by increased cardiac output

functional murmur

used to auscultate low pitched sounds/must be lightly set on chest

bell

used to listen to high pitched sounds

diaphram

palpable vibration

thrill

palpable sensation indicating cardiac enlargement

heave

5th ICS L MCL

tricuspid

also known as 2nd pulmonary area

Erb's point

2nd ICS R SB

aortic

2nd ICS L SB

pulmonic

sound created by turbulent blood flow

murmur

incompetent valve that allows back flow of blood

regurgitant

word for "narrowed" blood vessels

stenotic

wasting or decreasing in size of a part of the body

atrophy

the act of straightening a joint

extension

the relation between the thumb and the other digits of the hand for the purpose of grasping objects between the thumb and fingers

opposition

turning something inward

inversion

moving a joint away from the center of the body

external rotation

movement of a body part so the front or ventral surface faces upward

supination

movement of a body part so the front or ventral surface faces downward

pronation

flexion toward the back, or upward

dorsal flexion

moving a joint towards the center of the body

internal rotation

movement of a joint beyond the normal limit or range of motion

hyperextension

exercises are performed for the client by someone else

passive range of motion

the movement of a bone around its central axis, such as a shoulder

circumduction

turning outward or inside out

eversion

movement of the joint away from the midline

abduction

bending a joint to decrease the angle between the two parts

flexion

flexion of the foot and toes toward the sole

plantar flexion

movement of the joint toward the midline

adduction

abnormal condition of joint characterized by flexion and shortening of muscle fibers or loss of normal elasticity of skin

contracture

an instrument used to detect blood flow through a vessel

doppler

the position of the patient to best listen for extra heart sounds is

left lateral decubitus position

the functional assessment includes this patient information

smoking habits, drug and alcohol use, nutrition, caffeine intake, sleep, exercise, safety devices

with a grade 4 murmur, you would expect to find this...

a thrill

consolidation of lung tissue can be tested using these two methods

tactile fremitus
vocal fremitus

changes to palpation in a patient with emphysema are these...

tactile fremitus decreased
chest expansion decreased
AP: transverse diameter 1:1

a narrowing of a blood vessel by plaque or thrombus produces a sound known as a...

bruit

these irregularly shaped lesions occur along the sides of the extremities in patients with venous insufficiency

venous stasis ulcers

an example of this communication technique is "you stated that you had surgery, but your wife said that you didn't"

confrontation

this phenomenon occurs in patients with arterial insufficiency after dangling legs that previously had been flat in bed

dependent rubor

use of these are barriers to communication

anxiety, false assurances, medical jargon, why questions, interruptions

these sounds are auscultated throughout most of the lung fields

vesicular breath sounds

auscultating this organ should be done like this

from the base to the apex

in this "normal finding" the heart speeds up with inspiration and slows with exhalation

sinus arrhythmia

this extra heart sound occurs in early diastole

this makes the most impact in communication

appearance and behaviors

this info would be obtained if you re collecting an HPI (history of present illness) about pain

date & time of onset, location, severity, intensity using pain scale, aggravating factors, precipitating factors, alleviating factors, radiation, course of pain

a positive E to A change would indicate this

consolidation

a patient with this type of breathing exhibits an increase in depth and rate followed by periods of apnea

Cheyne-stokes breathing (seen when someone is dying)

bronchial breath sounds heard over the lung basis indicate this (not supposed to hear that)

consolidation

in a patient with arterial insufficiency, pulses are palpated as this

diminished or absent (0 or 1)

Leg pain in patients with venous insufficiency is relieved by doing this (edema)

elevate or raising the legs

turbulent blood flow through the heart is called ____ and the artery is called _____.

Murmor, bruit

In this patient population it is considered normal to have an S3 or S4

no population in which this is normal

signs and symptoms of a DVT would include these descriptions

assymetrical enlargement of legs, redness, pain at site, positive homans (sp) sign
