130

Based on pre-2017 guidelines a systolic blood pressure of __________ mmHg would be classified as pre-hypertensive (more than one acceptable answer)

You are taking a subject's blood pressure by the auscultatory method. When you have worked with this patient before, their blood pressure is usually around 147/75 with a heart rate of 81. How high should you pump up the pressure in the cuff before you begin taking their BP?

172

Put the following events of the cardiac cycle in order. After the opening of the semilunar valves, what would be 5 of the next events in the cardiac cycle? (not all answers will be used)

1st ventricles begin to eject blood 2. ventricles begin to repolarize 3. ventricular pressure falls below aortic pressure 4. the semilunar valves close 5. the AV valves open

Put the following events of the cardiac cycle in order:

1st. ventricular muscle cells depolarize 2nd pressure in the ventricles begins to increase 3rd the AV valves close 4th pressure in the ventricles exceeds aortic pressure 5th ventricles begin to eject blood

When you are using the auscultatory method for determining blood pressure, how high do y ou pump up the pressure in the cuff?

20-30 mmHg above the expected systolic blood pressure

What is a typical value for stroke volume in a healthy adult human (in mL)?

70

A systolic blood pressure of __________ mmHg increases the possibility of the subject experiencing syncope

90

A systolic blood pressure of __________ mmHg would be suggestive of hypotension

90

a. t wave b. QRS complex c. P wave

a. ventricular repolarization b. ventricular depolarization c. atrial depolarization

Which of the following is/are true about the ventricular ejection period?

b. the AV valves are closed c. The T wave would start somewhere during this period d. the pressure in the aorta initially increases i. the volume of blood in the ventricle is decreasing j. the semilunar valves are open

The fourth heart sound would occur when during the cardiac cycle?

during late filling of the ventricle when the atria contract

Which heart sound is associated with closing of the AV valves?

first

When we use a stethoscope and blood pressure cuff to determine blood pressure, what is true of the first sound we hear?

it is called the first Korotkoff sound

The 5th Korotkoff sound is associated with:

laminar blood flow

The fifth Korotkoff sound is associated with:

laminar blood flow

In a subject who had aortic stenosis, we would expect to hear?

lub - whistle - dup

When we use a stethoscope and blood pressure cuff to determine blood pressure, we place the diaphragm of the stethoscope where?

medial antecubital fossa

What does the 5th Korotkoff sound sound like?

no sound

The first Korotkoff sound is associated with:

turbulent blood flow
