Total questions: 10
Worksheet time: 10mins
During what stage does the adaption system continue to secret stress hormones well past the actual stressor, possibly leading to the exhaustion stage resulting in a weakened immune system, burnout, fatigue, and mental health symptomology?
Alarm Stage
Recovery Stage
Resistance Stage
Exhaustive Stage
What stress hormone is associated with chronic stress, resulting in detrimental effects like decreased bone density, GI issues, headaches, and systemic inflammation when released for lengthy periods of time?
Cortisol
Epinephrine
Norepinephrine
Oxytocin
What stress hormones are secreted during episodes of acute stress, resulting in vasoconstriction, increases in HR, CO, BP, and blood glucose, as well as increased alertness (select all that apply)?
Cortisol
Epinephrine
Norepinephrine
Oxytocin
Which of the following criteria is required for a diagnosis of PTSD (select all that apply)?
Intrusion (emotional distress, reactivity)
Avoidance (reminders, thoughts)
Hyperarousal (irritability, hypervigilance)
Negative thoughts/feelings (guilt, negative affect)
T or F:
The conduction sequence of the heart is as follows: AV node -> SA node -> Purkinje Fibers -> Bundle of His.
True
False
This structure is considered to be the "pacemaker" of the heart as it generates the heart's electrical signal, typically beating 60-100 bpm.
SA node
AV node
Purkinje Fibers
Bundle of His
What portion of an EKG represents depolarization, or contraction, of the ventricles?
P wave
T wave
QRS complex
In this heart rhythm, everything is "doing what it should be doing" and is considered normal and healthy.
Normal Sinus Rhythm
Atrial Fibrillation
Ventricular Fibrillation
Asystole
In this heart rhythm, the ventricles are quickly contracting but the atria are not. Due to this, the organs of the body are not being perfused. This rhythm is considered lethal and can lead to ventricular fibrillation if not corrected.
Normal Sinus Rhythm
Ventricular Tachycardia
Ventricular Fibrillation
Asystole
In this heart rhythm, the heart has completely stopped beating and no electrical activity is present. It is sometimes referred to as a "flat line."
Normal Sinus Rhythm
Sinus Bradycardia
Ventricular Fibrillation
Asystole
