part of the vessel, forming plaque. The plaque deposits increase in size over time causing narrowing of the coronary arteries, which impedes oxygen-rich blood flow to the heart (Figure 30.2).

The next and most dangerous step in the development of atherosclerosis is potential plaque rupture. When that occurs, platelets aggregate on the ruptured plaque surface. The coagulation cascade is initiated, and thrombus formation is

artery with an artery narrowed by atherosclerotic plaque deposits on the wall.

Medical Management As stated previously, the formation of plaque within the blood vessels is a silent process. Often CAD is suspected only when the individual presents with clinical symptoms.

The diagnosis is made on the basis of clinical presentation and diagnostic findings.

Laboratory Tests Laboratory tests diagnostic for CAD are summarized in Table 30.2. Many of the blood tests performed assess for the presence of risk factors for CAD development, such as lipid profiles, inflammation, and coagulation studies. Lipid profiles evaluate total cholesterol and triglyceride levels as well as the ratio of LDL to high-density lipoprotein (HDL) to determine if hyperlipidemia is present. Specific cardiac enzymes are used to rule out MI.

Table 30.2 Laboratory Tests Diagnostic for Coronary Artery Disease Rationale Electrolyte imbalances along with increases in renal or hepatic laboratory values may indicate damage caused by poor perfusion or may indicate the presence of risk factors for heart disease. Laboratory values included in the comprehensive metabolic profile include:

electrolyte balance, and assess renal and hepatic functions l Glucose (80–100 mg/dL) l Calcium (8.5–10.9 mg/dL) l Total protein (6.3–7.9 g/dL) l Sodium (135–145 mEq/L) l Potassium (3.5–5.0 mEq/L) l Chloride (96–106 mmol/L) l Blood/urea/nitrogen (BUN) (7–22 mg/dL)

A variation of unstable angina is variant, or Prinzmetal’s, angina. The blockage of blood flow in this disorder is caused by coronary artery spasm rather than plaque formation, but commonly atherosclerotic changes are present.

develops when there is an imbalance between supply and demand of oxygen-rich blood to the heart tissue resulting in insufficient oxygen to meet the demands of the myocardial tissue. Infarction, or cell death, occurs when that imbalance is severe or prolonged, which causes irreversible damage.

The primary patient complaint is chest pain, also called angina. Angina is classified into two categories, stable and unstable angina.

Stable angina is chest pain or discomfort that is associated with physical activity. It is typically linked to fixed plaque formations. Symptoms of stable angina are often alleviated with rest and/or medications. Nitrates such as nitroglycerin that dilate the coronary arteries, improving oxygen-rich blood flow to the heart, are typically prescribed for angina.

Unstable angina refers to chest pain that can occur at rest.

Of the two types of angina, unstable angina is the most concerning. It is identified as the initial phase of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), defined as a disorder caused by an acute decrease in blood flow through the coronaries to the myocardial tissue, and can be a precursor to MI. It should be treated as an emergency. Unstable angina is usually prolonged and may not be relieved with medication. In addition to nitroglycerin, these patients may z medications such as morphine.

Supplemental oxygen is typically necessary.

#2 Pre-Assessments

Each assignment begins with a quiz that gauges the student’s comprehension and retention of the content within that topic.

HHHHH “Davis Advantage is easy to access, with pertinent information. Having students prep before class is essential to learning. Students want to know what is necessary to know. A clear, consistent format is helpful for them.”

—Suzanne Carlson, RN, MSN, Instructor, Southwestern Community College 6

Pre-Assessment Questions feature single answer, multiple-choice, and select-all-that-apply formats.

Pre-Assessment Results quickly identify strengths and weaknesses using a thumbs up, thumbs down approach.

Thumbs up indicates competency, while thumbs down signals an area of weakness that requires further study.

#2 Next Gen NCLEX® Experience Extended multiple response questions are like the current NCLEX’s “Select-All-that-Apply,” but are more complex, featuring up to ten answer choices/distractors.

Six-question, progressive case studies align with the new Next Gen NCLEX® formats and the NCSBN Clinical Judgment Measurement Model, requiring careful analysis, synthesis of the data, and multi-step thinking.

Cloze questions walk students through a two-part statement and ask them to select the missing related elements from drop-down lists to complete the statement.

Extended drag-and-drop questions use two approaches. The first requires students to identify the correct selections and then place them in order by priority.

The second is similar to standard drag-and-drop, but includes more options to select from.

12

Grid/Matrix questions require students to make a series of decisions across multiple rows. The questions may be single select (with one correct option in each row) or multiple select (with more than one correct option in each row).

Enhanced hot spot questions require students to review chart details (such as the Nurse’s Notes or Laboratory Results) and highlight relevant, concerning, or supporting data.
