Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)

◦Acute Coronary syndrome (ACS) Angina

Myocardial Infarction (MI)

Cardiac Terminology:

Cardiovascular System Conclusion:Takes food and oxygen in, takes away waste. It seems so simple, but as we've seen, it's really a complex task that takes four body parts - the heart, blood vessels, blood, and lymph vessels - all working together to do this "simple" job, that keeps us alive.

Hearts blood supply Arteries may narrow Could eventually occlude Risk Factors Treatment:

◦ Stent◦ CABG

CAD

Angina (Pectoris)

Tightness/Pressure/Discomfort/radiation Dyspnea Nausea Pale Diaphoresis Weakness

Observation & Reporting

AKA: Heart Attack

Myocardial Infarction (MI)

Angina: more intense, longer SOB Anxiety/ feeling of “doom” Irregular heartbeat Changes in BP

Observation & Reporting

Report c/o of angina to RN STAT VS STAT or as directed Stay w/patient & call for help Calm patient Stop/Limit physical activity

CNA 2 Actions

Cardiac Catheterization

Diagnostic Treatment

◦Stent Femoral dressing

◦CABG Sternal Precautions

Post-care◦Care of the Surgical Patient”

Stent & CABG

Heart FailureAKA:

◦HF◦Congestive Heart Failure◦CHF

Inability of the heart to pump enough blood for the bodies needs Right-sided vs. Left-sided

Venous Back-up◦ Feet, ankle, legs are swollen◦ Urinary frequency esp at noc

Right-Sided Failure

Lungs Backed-up◦ Congestion◦ Coughing◦ SOB

Left-Sided Failure

Observation & Reporting SOB w/activity Fatigue w/exertion Cyanosis Sudden Wt. gain Edema Vertigo Diaphoresis Confusion and memory lapses

Report to nurse Accurate I&O Daily weights as ordered Low sodium diet restrictions Fluid restrictions as ordered Prevent fatigue

CNA 2 Actions

Abnormal Heart beat Electrical Condition May be life-threatening Treatment depends on type EKG/ECG:

◦Electrical activityof the heart

Dysrhythmia

Sinus Rhythm: 60-100 per min. “normal”

Bradycardia: <60◦slow

Tachycardia: >100◦fast

Common Dysrhythmias

Atrial Fibrillation◦Atria quivers◦At risk for block clots

Heart Block: ◦Stimulus can’t get through◦Sx’s depend on level of block

Common Dysrhythmias

Ventricular Tachycardia◦vents too fast◦Can’t fill all the way

Ventricular Fibrillation: ◦vents quiver

Asystole: ◦NO HEART BEAT◦Start CPR

Lethal Dysrhythmias

Palpitations c/o pounding chest Dizziness Light-headedness Fainting/weakness SOB Chest discomfort Slow pulse

Observation & Reporting

Report S/S to nurse NOW If S/S severe call RRT or CODE and stay with patient.
