Across
- 2. CVP(normal 2-8 mmHg)
- 5. Amount of blood ejected from ventricle with each cardiac cycle
- 9. Decreases after load (Dobutamine, Nitroglycerin, nitroprussin)
- 11. ventricular depolarization (<0.12)
- 12. Increases contractility, regulates rhythm (a fib, a flutter)
- 14. Normal pacemaker of the heart
- 15. secondary pacemaker (20-40 bpm)
- 16. depolarization from atria to ventricles (0.12-0.20)
- 17. decreases afterload; aids in healing post cardiogenic shock, post MI, or post CABG
- 19. MAP (normal: 70-105 mmHg; must be >60 to perfuse all organs)
- 22. If CVP and PCWP (preload) are low:
- 24. indicates the resistance encountered by the left side of the heart as it pumps blood outward toward the body (Includes SVR)
- 25. SVR - as this increases, CO,CI,SV,and HTN decrease (normal: 900-1400 DYNES)
- 27. fluid build up around heart causing the heart to work harder due to decreased contractility
- 28. PCWP(normal 6-12 mmHg)
Down
- 1. when SBP decreases by >/= 10 mmHg
- 3. If CVP and PCWP (preload) are high:
- 4. Disorder of impulse formation, conduction of impulses, or both
- 6. increases contractility and after load (epinephrine, dopamine, and levo)
- 7. Volume of blood pumped by the heart in one minute (SVxHR), normal: 4-8 L/min
- 8. If SVR is high (afterload):
- 10. secondary pacemaker (40-60 bpm)
- 13. As preload increases, stroke volume increases, and cardiac output increases
- 18. atrial depolarization
- 20. Used to help ID CV problems; the pulmonary artery carries blood between the heart and lungs (normal: 20/10 mmHg)
- 21. EJ - indicates how well your left ventricle pumps blood with each heart beat
- 23. Gives a better idea than CO about the heart's ability to perfuse the tissues because it accounts for the body's surface area (Normal: 2.2-4 L/min)
- 25. catheter inserted through right atrium to right ventricle to pulmonary artery
- 26. volume status (includes CVP and PCWP)
