**very little on dysrhythmias

 Angina o Steps to assessing an apical pulse  5 th intercostal space, on the heart, and you listen for 1 full minute.  Measuring the rate, rhythm, and Quality, document findings, IF < than 60 BPM, hold dosage and notify HCP o Action of antianginal medications  Dilate veins, relieves O2 demands to alleviate pain  Nitrates: dilate veins-reducing blood to heart. Dilate arteries-more blood to myocardium  Beta: decrease HR, reduce cardiac output and workload  Calcium Channel: reduce BP/cardiac workload, some decrease HR/reduce workload on heart o Treatment for unstable angina (happens during exercise/activity and can stop during no activity  Nitroglycerin o Drugs to treat angina  **Nitrates (first ones used for acute angina episode)  Nitroglycerin (Nitrostat)  Given sublingual or paste  Beta blockers (first used for long term prevention of angina pain)  Atenolol (Tenormin)  Calcium channel blockers (used when beta blockers are not tolerated well by pt)  Diltiazem (Cardizem)  ATI: Ranolazine o Nitroglycerin  Common side effect:  headache  1 st line of treatment  Nitrates  Long term use beta blocker  Lat resort Calcium channel  Hypertension- o Drugs used for both HTN and HF  ACE inhibitors “pril”  Captopril

 Lisinopril (Prinivil, Zestril)  Avoid prego, Angioedema, Cough, Elevated K  ARB’s “sartan”  Losartan (Cozaar)  Beta blocker  Metoprolol (Lopressor)  Direct vasodilator: Hydralazine o Secondary causes of o Vasopressors- Norepinephrine (Levophed)-reversed HTN  IV administration teaching  Start infusion only after ensuring patency of the IV-will cause necrosis  Need to be on pump, NOT on a drip o ACE  Primary use: lower BP, increase cardiac output, vasodilator  black box warning:  fetal demise  Patient teaching  Do not take with potassium sparing diuretics  Avoid foods high in potassium and avoid salt  Heart Failure o First line drug  ARB-Losartan (Cozaar) o Drugs used for both HTN and HF  ACE- Lisinopril (Zestril, Prinivil)  Diuretics o Patient lifestyle changes  Sodium restriction, limit alcohol, reduce intake of fats o Furosemide (Lasix)-Loop diuretics-works on ascending limb of nephron loop  Excretes K, helps get rid of fluid in body  Nursing interventions  Daily weights, monitor K, VS, ototoxicity  Expected outcome  Labs/electrolytes to monitor for IV administration  Don’t push fast for IV, can be toxic to kidneys, can get extravrogation, HPO o Cardiac Glycoside  Digoxin (Lanoxin)-2nd line HF  Assessment before administering o Check apical and pulse for 1 full min (rate, rhythm, quality) before giving med o Hold if pulse less than 60 o Decreases aldosterone so increases cardiac output-takes 2- 3weeks for therapeutic level o Cant take if prego

 Side effects  HA, fatigue, Rhabdomyolysis**** o “Statins”  Assess the patient’s ability to learn  Patient teaching  Hepatoxic, effect liver  Interfere with contraceptives so another form of BC  Do not take with grapefruit juice  How to take  Interactions  Adverse effect  GI: gas, bloating, cramping, diarrhea, nausea  Serious adverse effect  Rhabdo, atrophy  Consulting departments  Dietitian/ nutrition o Cholestyramine (Questran)  Side effect teaching  Increase fluid intake  Will have fatty stools  GI: nausea, bloating, cramping, diarrhea  Dosing schedule  2hr prior or 4hr after any other meds  Make sure you mix with 60mL of water because the med is a powder  Anticoagulation o Dietary recommendations/limitations  Don’t increase green leafy veggies, brussels sprouts, kale, spinach o Heparin  How to administer-  subQ, tummy, do not pull back on plunger  Lab values - aPTT  25 – 35 seconds (not on hep)  120 – 140 seconds (on hep) o Warfarin  Lab values – PT/INR  INR 2 – 3 therapeutic range  Toxicity treatment / antidote  Vitamin K  Patient teaching  No prego  Avoid ginger, ginko, green tea over counter meds  Bleeding precaution  Use electric razors and soft bristle tooth brushes o LMWH

 Administration route and site  subQ, lower quadrants o Direct Thrombin Inhibitor  Prototype – Agratroban !!  Lab values to assess effectiveness  PTT o Factor Xa inhibitor  Eliquis (apixaban)  Contraindications o Active bleeding, no ginko, ginger, green tea, no prego  Given orally  Specific use: stroke and DVT post-surgery  Antiplatelets o Clopidogrel (Plavix)  Side effects  Dizzy, cough, pruritus/rash, bleeding  Assessment findings   Patient teaching   Dysrhythmias o Potassium Channel Blockers  Expected outcome  Duration of use  50 days  Pregnancy risk  Black Box warning  Pneumonia like syndrome  Electrolytes to monitor  K, Na o Calcium Channel Blockers  Prototype – Proapolmil  Action  Dietary restrictions  No grapefruit  Diseases/disorders/race they treat  African American  HTN, dysrhythmias, last line is CCB for angina o Beta Blockers  Nursing follow up  Patient teaching  Don’t abruptly stop  Don’t operate heavy machinery, lethargic feeling  Pregnancy risk
