Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Name
Features
Class I   No limitation in physical activity; slight fatigue  
🗑
Class II   Slight impairement of physical activity  
🗑
Class III   Marked limitation of physical activity; comfortable at rest, but less than ordinary activity causes symptoms  
🗑
Class IV   Symptoms may be present even at rest; unable to engage in any physical activity w/out discomfort  
🗑
Most common symptoms of heart disease   Dyspnea, chest pain, palpitations, syncope, fatigue, diaphoresis, cachectic appearance  
🗑
Dyspnea   Difficulty breathing; pp by exertion, result from left atrial+pulmonary venous pressure or hypoxia; worsening of left atrial hypertension=pulmonary edema;quantified by amount of activity that precipates it  
🗑
Orthopnea   Dysnea that occurs in recumbency; result from increase from central venous pressure  
🗑
Paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea (PND)   SOB that occurs abruptly;30-2h after going to bed&is released by sitting or standing up  
🗑
Ischemia   inadequate circulation of blood to the myocardium;usu as result of coronary a. disease d/t stenosis;sensation of discomfort;last 5-20min;tightness, pressure  
🗑
Angina Pectoris   Coronary a. go to different parts of the heart;precordial chest pain,usu pp by stress or exertion, relieved rapidly by rest or nitrate drugs(nito=veno dilator)obstruct of coronary vess(atherosclerotic heart disease if no obstruc: L ventricular hypertrophy  
🗑
Pain of Myocardial Infarction   if pain last longer than 20 mins then MIA  
🗑
MI   Sudden insufficiency of arterial blood supply to the heart muscle as result of occlusion of coronary a; anxiety/sense of uneasiness;retrosternal,L precordial, protracted ischemic symptoms  
🗑
Ischemic Pain   pp by exertion;usu relieved by rest, not related to position or respiration;if can reproduce pain by palpating then NOT heart pb; also seen with hypertrophy of either ventricles, aortic disease  
🗑
Atypical Chest Pain   Myocarditis, cardiomyopathy, Primary pulmonary hypertension, Mitral valve prolapse  
🗑
Palpitations   Awareness of the heartbeat;manifestation of cardiac abnormalities that increase stroke volume; cardiac dysrhytmias, PVC,SVT(supraventricular)or atrial ventricular tachycardia (VT)  
🗑
PVC   premature ventricular contraction  
🗑
Syncope   Loss of consciousness, faint  
🗑
Cadiogenic syncope   at AV=no heartbeat;usu fr sinus node block AV conduction or ventricular febrillation(heart quivering, no organized activity);few prodromal sympt;cardiomyopathy;no premonitory sx: not postural hypotension  
🗑
Neurocardiogenic syncope=vasovagal syncope   inappropriate increase in vagal efferent activity, follow brief period of duaphoresis, abrupt in onset like arrythmia-induced syncope  
🗑
Diaphoresis   hypotension or hyperadrenergic state; seen in PERICARDIAL TAMPONADE  
🗑
Cachectic appearance   chronic low cardiac output states  
🗑
Central Cyanosis   d/t aterial desaturation, low output state  
🗑
Peripheral Cyanosis   Reflects impaired tissue delivery of adequately saturated blood;poycythemia,peripheral vasoconstriction  
🗑
Systolic pressures below 90 or more than 140   need follow-up  
🗑
Tachypnea   nonspecific=respiration rate more than 16/min;consider pulmonary disease+heart failure  
🗑
Diminished peripheral pulses   result from arteriosclerotic peripheral heart disease; accompanied by localized bruits  
🗑
Carotid pulse   valuable to assess L ventricular dunction  
🗑
Delayed upstroke   aortic stenosis  
🗑
Bisferiens quality   2 palpable peaks, hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, mixed aortic regurgitation & stenosis  
🗑
Pulsus alternans   a,plitude of pulses alternated every other beat during sinus rhythm; occurs when cardiac contractility is very depressed or w/ large PERICARDIAL EFFUSIONS  
🗑
Pulsus paradoxus   a decrease in systolic blood pressure during inspiration more than normal 10mm Hg, valuable sign of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)  
🗑
Jugular Venous Pulsations   Insight into right atrial pressure;if more than 3cm above Angle of Louis: increased CVP; if rise more than 1cm w/ sustained R upper abdominal quadrant pressure (hepatojugular reflex)=increased central blood volume  
🗑
Crackles   heard at lung bases; sign of congestive heart failure(CHF)  
🗑
Wheezing and Rhonchi   suggest obstructive pulmonary disease but may occur in L heart failure (cardiac asthma)  
🗑
Pleural Efllusions   w/ bibasilar percussion, dullness, and reduced breath sounds = commin in CHF  
🗑
Edema in heart disease   results from elebated right atrial pressures  
🗑
Pulse oximetry   shown thru capillaries, more it absorbs shows oxygen concentration in blood, red light  
🗑
S1   Mitral & Tricuspid valves  
🗑
S2   Pulmonary & Aortic valves  
🗑
3rd heart sound   mid-diastolic sounds  
🗑
4th heart sound   atrial gallop- abnormal  
🗑
S3   during rapid filling phase of ventricle, after closure of aortic and pulmonary valves;may be normal in children, pregnant; heart failure(ventricle dysfxn),mitral and tricuspid regurgitation(increase flow during rapid filling phase of ventricles)  
🗑
S4   Triple cadence to heart sounds at rate of 100/min; valve snaps back; indicative of serious disease; stiff or non-compliant ventricle  
🗑
Clicks   high-pitched sounds. Ejection sounds  
🗑
Murmurs   valvular disease; pansystolic when merge w/ 1st heart sound and persist thru all systole  
🗑
Ejection murmurs   when they begin after the 1st heart sound and end before the 2nd  
🗑
Innocent murmurs   often vary w/ inspiration, diminish in upright position; most often heard in thin individuals-esp. women  
🗑
Thrills   palpable vibrations associated with murmurs  
🗑
