Problem
i. What types of diseases are we trying to avoid when treating hypertension?
ii. Think about a teaching plan for a patient with a CHF exacerbation after eating a high salt diet.
iii. Where do you check the pulse for digoxin. Demonstrate it at home using the verbiage you learned and the location you learned about in your Skills 1 course?
iv. What might indicate dig toxicity? Is there a reversal agent? What is a normal range for digoxin? What vital sign would lead you to hold digoxin?
v. Explain why dysrythmics can cause dysrhythmias. There is no wrong answer here. Just make it make sense in your brain.
