Notes on Pathophysiology:
Atrial Fibrillation with RVR: Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of arrhythmia. Approximately four percent of
the U.S. population has either intermittent or permanent Afib. In people over the age of 60, the incidence rises to
about nine percent. AFib is caused by abnormal electrical impulses in the atria. The result is a rapid and irregular
pumping of blood through the atria. These chambers fibrillate, or quiver, rapidly. AFib may or may not produce
symptoms or cause serious complications. In some cases of AFib, the fibrillation of the atria causes the ventricles to
beat too fast. This is called a rapid ventricular rate or response (RVR). If you have AFib with RVR you will experience
symptoms, typically a rapid or fluttering heartbeat. RVR can be detected and confirmed by your doctor. It can cause
serious complications and requires treatment.
SIRS/ VRE: An inflammatory state affecting the whole body, frequently a response of the immune system to infection,
but not necessarily so. It is related to sepsis, a condition in which individuals meet criteria for SIRS and have a known
infection. It is the body's response to an infectious or noninfectious insult. Although the definition of SIRS refers to it
as an "inflammatory" response, it actually has pro- and anti-inflammatory components. Vancomycin-resistant
enterococci (VRE) are a type of bacteria called enterococci that have developed resistance to many antibiotics,
especially vancomycin. Enterococci bacteria live in our intestines and on our skin, usually without causing problems.
But if they become resistant to antibiotics, they can cause serious infections, especially in people who are ill or weak.
These infections can occur anywhere in the body. Some common sites include the intestines, the urinary tract, and
wounds. Vancomycin-resistant enterococci infections are treated with antibiotics, which are the types of medicines
normally used to kill bacteria. VRE infections are more difficult to treat than other infections with enterococci,
because fewer antibiotics can kill the bacteria.
Transaminitis: A regionally popular term for increased transaminases (AST, ALT) coupled with non-specific hepatitis,
which may occur in a patient undergoing the early stages of multiorgan failure.
Scheduled: CT scan on 1/15

Rationale
(specific to pt)
Nursing implications related to patient
care & teaching
Could be due to poor nutrition. In care
facility PTA, the patient was refusing
meals and medications. Could also be
related to chronic renal insufficiencies
that do not spare Na. Also can be
diminished by diuretics.
-Monitor IV fluid intake so it is not
providing less sodium than maintenance
and ongoing losses
-Make sure the patient does not only
appear hyponatremic due to increase in IV
fluids acting as dilutant
Occurs in renal failure. Patient is in
end stage renal failure.
-Drugs that may cause decreased levels
include methicillin, nitrofurantoin,
paraldehyde, phenformin, tetracycline,
thiazide diuretics and triamterene
-Related tests: ABGs
ESRD causes diminished renal blood
flow causing decreased renal
excretion of BUN. Sepsis also could be
a cause which decreases renal blood
flow as well.
Directly proportional to renal
excretory function. Extensive renal
impairment history; on dialysis
-Is a measurement of renal function, GFR
and liver function
-Monitor for nephrotoxicity caused by
drugs such as potassium or aspirin
-Consider BUN/Creatinine ratio
-Similar to BUN test but levels tend to rise
later
-Suggests chronicity of the disease process
-Interpreted in conjunction with BUN
-The patient’s value is extremely elevated

Can be caused by malnutrition (low
protein levels). Most likely the liver
disfunction (albumin synthesis)
associated with malnutrition also
contributes to low level.
-Measurement of hepatic function
-Maintains colloidal osmotic pressure
-Helps transfer drugs, hormones, enzymes
-Factor in that with low albumin, drugs
administered may not be getting to full
efficacy

Action of drug and
Rationale
(specific to Pt)
Lipid lowering agent that
is readily hydrolyzed to
the corresponding betahydroxyacid. Increases
the rate of removal of
cholesterol from the
body and reduces its
production by arresting
the conversion of HMGCoA, which is a rate
limiting step in the
biosynthesis of
cholesterol. Given to pt
for hx hyperlipidemia.
Nonselective betaadrenergic blocking
agent that has
antihypertensive effect
by causing vasodilation
reducing peripheral
vascular resistance.
Decreases cardiac
output, decreases
tachycardia. Given to this
patient r/t Hx HTN and
CHF
Significant Side Effects
Nursing implications related to
patient care & teaching
May cause constipation,
nausea, abdominal pain,
headaches, insomnia,
vertigo and upper
respiratory infections. Other
side effects include
abdominal pain, nausea,
headache, jaundice,
cholestatic hepatitis,
increased liver enzymes,
liver failure, compartment
syndrome of the lower leg,
muscle disorder
-Counsel patient to immediately
report s/s of myopathy or
rhabdomyolysis including muscle
pain, tenderness and/or weakness
-Instruct patient to report s/s of liver
injury such as fatigue, anorexia, right
upper abdominal discomfort, dark
urine or jaundice
-Instruct patient to avoid grapefruit
juice while taking this drug
-Multiple drug interactions
May cause diarrhea, nausea,
vomiting, arthralgia, back
pain, myalgia, headache,
vision disorder, erectile
dysfunction, reduced libido,
fatigue.
-Hold for sbp <110 or hr <60
-Instruct patient to report s/s of
adverse cardiovascular effects such
as hypotension (especially in the
elderly), arrhythmias, syncope,
palpitations, angina, edema
-Drug may mask symptoms of
hypoglycemia. Advise diabetic
patients to carefully monitor blood
sugar levels

PRN for agitation
Phosphate binder that
inhibits intestinal
phosphate absorption
and reduces LDL and
total serum cholesterol
levels. Given to this
patient to avoid
hyperphosphatemia that
is caused by ESRD and
hemodialysis
Similar structural
features found in
atropine and
diphenhydramine. The
anticholinergic activity is
utilized in the treatment
of parkinsonism. In the
case of this patient, it is
given as an adjunct
psych medication to
avoid agitation; sedative
effects
Patient did not need this
PRN for agitation on
1/13 or 1/14. Patient
appeared calm after
administration of
benztropine.

constipation, diarrhea,
flatulence, indigestion,
nausea, vomiting, bowel
obstruction, perforation of
intestine, peritonitis

thrombotic disorder
-Patient should take drug with meals
and adhere to prescribed diet

effects, tachyarrhythmia,
paralytic ileus, confusion or
drug-induced psychosis
-May impair heat regulation
-Instruct patient to report sudden
muscle weakness or stiffness and s/s
or tardive dyskinesia.
-Patient should not consume ETOH
while taking this drug
May cause hypotension,
constipation, xerostomia,
akathisia, dystonia, EPS,
somnolence, blurred vision,
