What else can I help you with?
Can you give nitroglycerin to patients with inferior wall MI?
No
What is interior infarction?
An inferior, not interior, infarction is a subclassification of a heart attack. An inferior myocardial infarction occurs when there is a blockage in the inferior wall of a coronary artery.
Inferior wall ischemia?
An inferior wall mycardial infarction is a heart attack involving the inferior portion of the left ventricle, and in many cases the right ventricle. This is caused by occlusion of the right coronary artery. This can also indicate ischemia (poor oxygenation) of the AV node and bundle of HIS, as these structures are also supplied by the right coronary. An inferior wall MI can be seen in the inferior leads II, III, and AVF.
What is inferior wall mild hypokinesia?
underactive contracyin of heart muscle
What does it mean a diaphragmatic attenuation versus reverisbility in the inferior wall?
Diaphragmatic attenuation typically refers to a decrease in image quality in the inferior wall of the heart due to interference from the diaphragm. Reversibility in the inferior wall usually indicates that a defect revealed during imaging is potentially reversible, often highlighting areas of reduced blood flow that may improve with treatment.
A ventricular wall motion abnormality that is reversible with nitroglycerin is?
likely due to coronary artery vasospasm, which can result in transient ischemia. Nitroglycerin dilates coronary arteries, increasing blood flow to the affected area and relieving the spasm-induced wall motion abnormality. It is important to investigate the underlying cause of vasospasm and address any coronary artery disease risk factors.
When was Give Me a Wall created?
Give Me a Wall was created in 2005.
What wall forms most of the inferior border of the heart?
the inferior border of the heart is formed by both the right and leftventricles, but the inferior (diaphragmatic) surface of the heart isprimarilymade from the Leftventricle. Kaplen Anatomy 2012, section 3 gross anatomy, page 212.
What tissue does the inferior epigastric artery supply?
Rectus abdominis & medial part of the anterolateral abdominal wall
Why will you not give morphine in inferior wall myocardial infarction?
Morphine decreases pre-load and after-load and because the Inferior wall is effected the right ventricle is effected. If you do not have enough blood entering the right ventricle when the area is necrotic to begin with you will not be pumping enough blood to perfuse sufficiently. In addition the decreased after-load in in conjunction with the decreased blood pressure caused by the failure of the right ventricle there will not be enough "back-flow" in the cardiac vascular system. In summation if can cause bottoming out of a patient's blood pressure and further cardiac hypo-perfusion. In some cases it has been shown to work if a normal saline or ringers lactate bolus is infused prior to morphine administration.
How can the medical assistant help prevent a breach of patient confidentiality by the placement of charts in wall holders?
Prevent breach charts in wall holder
How does a hospital patient receive oxygen?
In the hospital, oxygen is supplied to each patient room via an outlet in the wall. Oxygen is delivered from a central source through a pipeline in the facility. A flow meter attached to the wall outlet accesses the oxygen.
