Dr. Seva's NYCC Visceral Pathology 1st Exam Clinical Features

QuestionAnswer
What are risk factors for cardiac hypertrophy? HTN and stenosis of valves
What condition gives dyspnea on exertion, orthopnea, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea, cough, hemoptysis? Left ventricular failure.
If left atrial pressure and pulmonary venous pressure are increased, the lung is congested and HLM's are present what happened? Left ventricular failure.
What happened if right atrial pressure and systemic venous pressure are increased? Right ventricular failure.
What gives clinical features of neck vein distention, elevated JVP, hepatomegaly & tender liver, spleenomegaly, hepato-abdomino-jugular reflex, ascities, peripheral pitting edema? Right ventricular failure.
