This topic looks at the language of the heart and reviews anatomy, physiology, and ECGs. How does one determine what an ECG rhythm is and what does it mean? How do you take care of a client with these rhythms?
Objectives:
- Incorporate pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and diagnostic studies related to hypertension, coronary artery disease, chronic stable angina, and select dysrhythmias.
- Collaborate with interprofessional partners to develop a comprehensive plan of care for persons across the adult life span with hypertension, coronary artery disease, chronic stable angina, and select dysrhythmias.
- Interpret normal and select abnormal ECG waveforms, including normal sinus rhythm, sinus bradycardia, sinus tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, premature ventricular contractions, ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and asystole.
- Apply the nursing process to plan, prioritize, and implement evidence-based, person-centered, quality nursing management of adults with hypertension, coronary artery disease, chronic stable angina, and select dysrhythmias, including ongoing assessment, age-related or diversity considerations, dysrhythmia treatment, postoperative care, medication education, self-care strategies, and follow-up care for any health setting.
- Build on previous knowledge to make use of medication classification, mechanism of action, indications for use, calculations, nursing considerations, major adverse effects, and evaluation of therapeutic effectiveness of selected medications used in the treatment of adults with hypertension, coronary artery disease, chronic stable angina, and select dysrhythmias.
- Evaluate outcomes of care, including medications, self-care effectiveness, and recognition of potential complications.
