Femoral vein Femoral Artery Question 3 of 5 Intermittent claudication ______________. Select all that apply. radiates from the shoulder to the jaw. is pain that is alleviated by rest. Question 4 of 5 Which of the following statements about aortic dissection are true? Select all that apply. When left untreated, 33% of patients die within 24 hours. When left untreated, 33% of patients die
within 24 hours. Question 5 of 5 Which of the following statements about atherosclerosis are true? Select all that apply. There are many early warning signs of atherosclerosis, including pain and fatigue. Risk factors include obesity, tobacco use, and excessive alcohol intake. Question 1 of 5 Can you differentiate the various arterial disorders? For each disorder, drag and drop the statements that apply to the disorder to the box. Atherosclerosis Basic physiological change that results in cardiovascular disease Atherosclerosis is a form of arteriosclerosis in which the lumen of arterial wall becomes occluded with plaques. The plaques are formed from cholesterol and white blood cells forming foam cells. Although white blood cells are involved, formation of the plaques is not due to an autoimmune response. Elevated C-reactive protein (an inflammation marker) and homocysteine levels have been associated with atherosclerosis. Question 2 of 5 Can you differentiate the various arterial disorders? For each disorder, drag and drop the statements that apply to the disorder to the box. Aneurysm Weak arterial wall resulting in bulging of the artery An aneurysm is a bulge in an arterial wall. The most common location for an aneurysm is the abdominal aorta. An aneurysm may present in different forms including fusiform and saccular. Surgical repair is not always necessary with an aneurysm, and death does not occur at a high rate within the first 24 hours of development. Takayasu arteritis is a form of vasculitis, and is not a type of aneurysm. Question 3 of 5 Can you differentiate the various arterial disorders? For each disorder, drag and drop the statements that apply to the disorder to the box. Aortic Dissection Blood pressure differential between right and left arm Aortic dissection is a life-threatening condition in which a tear in the inner layer of the aortic wall appears. Blood pours into the tear, separating (dissecting) the inner layer from the middle layer. If the tear ruptures, death may result. Almost one-third of patients with aortic dissection die within the first 24 hours. Surgical repair of the tear is needed. Signs and symptoms include a sudden onset of severe chest pain. Depending on the location of the dissection, blood flow to either arm may be compromised, resulting in a difference in pressure between the arms. Question 4 of 5 Can you differentiate the various arterial disorders? For each disorder, drag and drop the statements that apply to the disorder to the box. Vasculitis Immune complexes deposited in arterial
walls Vasculitis is inflammation of the vessels, and both arteries and veins may be involved. The disease may be systemic or affect one area or tissue of the body. Several forms of vasculitis exist, and an autoimmune component, with immune complexes deposited in the arterial walls, has been found to play a role. Signs and symptoms of vasculitis vary, depending on the tissues involved. Takayasu arteritis is one example of vasculitis; it affects the aorta and pulmonary arteries. Question 5 of 5 Can you differentiate the various arterial disorders? For each disorder, drag and drop the statements that apply to the disorder to the box. Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) Intermittent claudication Peripheral artery disease results in decreased blood flow to the extremities. Most commonly, the arteries of the legs are affected. Depending on the extent of the blockage, peripheral pulses may be diminished. The ankle-brachial index (ABI) compares the blood pressure in the ankles with the blood pressure in the arms and may be reduced with peripheral arterial disease in the lower extremities. When blood flow through the narrowed arteries cannot match the metabolic demands of the tissues, intermittent claudication results. Question 1 of 5 What basic physiological change underlies most cardiovascular disease? Hypertension Atherosclerosis Question 2 of 5 What molecule contributes to the formation of atherosclerotic plaque? Hemoglobin LDL cholesterol Question 3 of 5 An outpatient in the clinic complains of leg pain while walking. However, the patient adds that the pain ceases when he is at rest. Which condition would the nurse suspect? Pulmonary embolism Peripheral arterial disease Question 4 of 5 Which of the following conditions refers to a weakened, bulging arterial wall? Aortic dissection Aneurysm Question 5 of 5 Which of the following is an immediate, life-threatening condition? Peripheral artery disease Aortic Dissection Which of the following is incorrect about atherosclerosis?So, the correct answer is 'Loss of dilation ability of the arterial wall and its rupture'
What is true atherosclerosis?Atherosclerosis, sometimes called "hardening of the arteries," occurs when fat, cholesterol, and other substances build up in the walls of arteries. These deposits are called plaques. Over time, these plaques can narrow or completely block the arteries and cause problems throughout the body.
Which of the following are risk factors for atherosclerosis select all that apply?Risk factors for atherosclerosis, include:. High cholesterol and triglyceride levels.. High blood pressure.. Smoking.. Type 1 diabetes.. Obesity.. Physical inactivity.. High saturated fat diet.. Is atherosclerosis irreversible?Thus, early lesions of atherosclerosis are reversible and cholesterol-lowering therapy is an effective treatment; however, since advanced lesions seem to be irreversible, cholesterol-lowering therapy may not be effective for such lesions.
