What term is described by the following?-Mechanical cardiac assist device that benefits clients with actual or potential life-threatening circulatory problems -Provides hemodynamic support to clients
CORRECT ANS:- - Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP)
What term is described by the following?-Circulatory support provided by a balloon inserted into the thoracic aorta, inflated during diastole and deflated during systole -Reduces the resistance to left ventricular ejection and increases coronary and systemic blood flow
CORRECT ANS:- - Intra-aortic balloon counter pulsation (IABC)
What term is described by the following?-Takes place at the onset of diastole, balloon inflation increases (at dicrotic notch) aortic diastolic pressure to a level higher than systolic pressure -Displaces a volume of blood equal to its inflation volume
CORRECT ANS:- - Inflation
What term is described by the following?-Occurs at the end of isovolumetric contraction just before opening of the aortic valve (anacrotic notch) -Occurs just before systole reduces afterload -Maintained until the onset of diastole
CORRECT ANS:- - Deflation 1 / 2
What term is described by the following?-Normal peak systolic pressure
CORRECT ANS:- - First hump
What term is described by the following?-Correlates with aortic valve closure -Should be "V" shaped
CORRECT ANS:- - First dip
What term is described by the following?-Termed diastolic augmentation or peak diastolic pressure (PDP) -Produced by balloon inflation up aortic valve closure at the dicrotic notch -Ideally raises diastolic pressure to a level higher than the systolic pressure -Mechanically increases optimizing coronary and systemic blood flow
CORRECT ANS:- - Second hump
What term is described by the following?-Relates to balloon deflation just before the next systole -Should be "U" shaped
CORRECT ANS:- - Second dip
What term is described by the following?-Physiologic signal from the client to the computer within the IABP console -Used to indicate the beginning of cardiac cycles and length of R-R intervals using ECG -The pneumatic system within the console then appropriately deflates and inflates the balloon in sync with the client's cardiac cycles
CORRECT ANS:- - Trigger
What term is described by the following?
