Orthostatic (postural) hypotension: A temporary fall in blood pressure when a person rapidly changes from a recumbent position to a standing position 80. venous vasodilation and stasis: Insufficient contraction of the skeletal muscles and muscles atrophy which makes the skeletal muscles unable to assist in pumping blood back to the heart against gravity. Blood pools in legs causing vasodilation & engorgement. The valves become incompetent (don't function as they should, allowing backward flow of blood and pooling) which increases venous blood pressure. 81. dependent edema: Swelling in the part of the body closest to the ground, caused by collection of fluid in the tissues; a possible sign of congestive heart failure. 82. thrombus formation: blood clot that remains attached to the vessel wall 83. decreased respiratory movement: ventilation is altered in bed resting, immobile patients when their body presses against the rigid bed and reduces chest movement making it difficult to fully expand the lungs. Lack of stretching movements may produce shallow respirations and reduce vital capacity (max amount of air that can be exhaled after a maximum inhalation) 84. pooling of respiratory secretions: inactivity allows secretions to pool by gravity, interfering with normal diffusion of oxygen & carbon dioxide. Cough can be 4/9 3000 Final Exam Study online at https://quizlet.com/_ezqtxy hindered by dehydration, loss of respiratory muscle tone, or sedatives that depress the cough reflex. 85. atelectasis: collapsed lung; incomplete expansion of alveoli 86. hypostatic pneumonia: inflammation of the lung from stasis or pooling of secretions 87. decreased metabolic rate: Less heat is produced 88. negative nitrogen balance: Condition occurring when the body excretes more nitrogen than it takes in. 89. anorexia: lack or loss of appetite 90. negative calcium balance: greater amounts of calcium are extracted from bone than can be replaced 91. urinary stasis: stoppage of urine flow; urinary stagnation 92. renal calculi: stones in the kidney 93. urinary retention: inability to empty the bladder 94. urinary infection: infection of kidney, ureter, or bladder 95. constipation: Hard, slow stools that are difficult to eliminate; often a result of too little fiber in the diet 96. reduced skin turgor: loss of skin elasticity 97. skin breakdown: Any cut or scraping of the skin due to pressure or positioning too long in the same position 98. clear liquid diet: a diet that consists of foods that are liquid at room temperature and leave little residue in the intestine.
