tubal ligation, a 37-year-old woman, gravida 2, para 2, has dizziness and
confusion. The operation was uncomplicated, and blood loss is estimated to
be 800 mL. Patient-controlled epidural analgesia has been moderately
effective for pain. Her blood pressure now is 80/40 mm Hg, decreased from
120/72 mm Hg intraoperatively, and pulse is 152/min, increased from 96/min
intraoperatively. Breath sounds are decreased bilaterally. No murmurs are
heard. Abdominal examination shows distention and tenderness. Bowel sounds
are absent. The incision is intact with no drainage. She is disoriented to
person, place, and time. Her hematocrit is 23%; preoperative hematocrit was
35%. Which of the following is the most likely cause of the hemodynamic
changes?
A
) Epidural-related hypotension
B
) Insufficient intraoperative fluid replacement
C
) Postoperative intra-abdominal hemorrhage
D

h****8 发帖数: 278 | 6 A 19-year-old man comes to the physician because of frequent nosebleeds over
the past 3 weeks. He has bipolar disorder currently well controlled with
lithium carbonate, bupropion, and valproic acid. Physical examination shows
no abnormalities except for dried blood in the nares. Mental status
examination shows an anxious mood and slight motor restlessness. Serum
studies show a lithium carbonate level of 1.3 mEq/L (therapeutic range=0.6–
1.2), and valproic acid level of 77 μg/mL (therapeutic range=40–100).
Which of the following is the most appropriate next step in management?
A
) Measurement of serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST, GOT) activity
B
) Measurement of serum bupropion level
C
) Platelet count
D
) Discontinuation of lithium carbonate therapy
E
) Discontinuation of valproic acid therapy |
h****8 发帖数: 278 | 7 A 57-year-old man is brought to the emergency department 30 minutes after he
was found on the floor of his house; he has left hip pain and shortness of
breath. He has renal failure but has missed his last two dialysis treatments
. His renal failure was caused by inadvertent ingestion of ethylene glycol.
His renal function did not improve, and he is currently on the
transplantation list. Medications include amlodipine and doxazosin. On
arrival, his temperature is 37.5 C (99.5 F), blood pressure is 150/100 mm Hg
, pulse is 95/min and regular, and respirations are 24/min. His breathing is
rapid and deep. Crackles are heard in the lung bases. Examination shows a
soft abdomen. Bowel sounds are normal. The left lower extremity is
externally rotated. Laboratory studies show:
Serum
Na+ 135 mEq/L
Cl– 102 mEq/L
K+ 7.1 mEq/L
HCO3– 12 mEq/L
Arterial blood gas analysis on 4 L/min of oxygen by nasal cannula:
pH 7.22
PCO2 31 mm Hg
PO2 61 mm Hg
An ECG shows peaked T-waves. It will be at least 45 minutes before dialysis
can be started. Which of the following is the most appropriate next step in
management?
A
) Observation until dialysis is initiated
B
) Intravenous calcium gluconate
C
) Intravenous glucose and insulin
D
) Intravenous 0.9% saline
E
) Intravenous sodium bicarbonate
F
) Rectal sodium polystyrene sulfonate (Kayexalate)
when is glucose + insulin a better choice? when should we use calcium
gluconate? |
