Question
Answer
Coronary Artery Disease clinical manifestations? prevention?   Leading cause of death in US by artherscloerosis Mani: Ischemia, Angina pectoris, sudden cardiac death pre: diet/excercise, meds, no smoke, manage htn/DM, hotility  
🗑
Angina pectoris? types? clinical manifestations?   atherosclerosic disease(plaq and inner layer under get necrosis adn break off) type: stable(predictable, pain w/ exertion unstable: unpred, pain/rest/sleep variant: longer chest pain rest man: behind sternum, radiate, dur<5m, relief w/ nitro/rest  
🗑
nsg mgmt wtih angina pectoris   meds: nitro q 5m up to 3x O2 @ 2L NC reduce anxiety prevent pain with morphine(reduce O2 demand on heart) Priotity: O2/nitro/morphine  
🗑
Myocardial Infarction MI clinical manifestations?   Acute coronary syndrome ACS man: pain, pallor, dizzy, impending doom, elephant on chest  
🗑
MI findings on: ECG changes? lab tests?   ECG: Twave inverted lab: check troponin & CK-MB  
🗑
Define Angina pectoris   chest pain by myocardial ischemia, or cardica muscle deprived of O2  
🗑
Risk factors for CAD   fam hx, incr age, men earlier than women, race(AA), incr LDL, smoking, HTN, DM, obesity  
🗑
Optimal lipid values   LDL: <70 for high risk/<100 Total: <200 HDL: >60 Triglyceride: <150  
🗑
Cholesterol Meds   Statins: block chol synthesis, SE: muscle pain, see liver fx, Nicotine Acids: Niacins, supplements, SE: flushing, liver, not for gout pt  
🗑
More Chol meds   Fibric Acids: incr HDL, not w/ statin, liver, can incr LDL Bile Acid Seques: bind chol adn incr breakdown, supplement  
🗑
more chol meds   Chol absorption inhibitor: Zetia SE: athralgia, abd pain Omega 3: decr TG  
🗑
What is different with aging person and Angina pectoris   may only show dyspnea as presenting s/s.  
🗑
What is goal for Angina pectoris   reduce O2 demand of myocardium, incr O2 supply w/ nitrates, which reduces O2 consumption, relieves pain. Dilates vv, so less blood return to heart, preload decr. SE: decr BP  
🗑
What do beta blockers do?   "olols", block beta-adrenergic sympathetic stimulation to heart = decr rate, slow impulses, decr BP, decr contractility to decr O2 demand, bronchoconstriction  
🗑
what is nsg intv for beta blocker   ECG/BP/HR monitored after med. SE: depression/fatigue/impotence Not stop abruptly  
🗑
What do CCB do?   decr SA/AV node conduction = decr HR/contractility, relax vessels, decr BP, incr coronary aa perfusion, incr O2 supply by dilating smooth muscles Amlodipine(Norvasc)/diltiazem  
🗑
Antiplatelet meds   aspirin, Plavix  
🗑
Anticoagulation meds   Heparin: IV unfractionated which is monitored by aPTT to be at 2/2.5 x normal aPTT value. Low-mol wt: Lovenox and eliminate need to monitor aPTT  
🗑
ACS-Acute Coronary Syndrome is?   MI unstable angina NSTEMI: non ST elevation MI STEMI: ST seg elevation MI  
🗑
Three important descriptions are used to id an MI   1. type(NSTEMI,STEMI 2. location of injury to vent wall(ant,inf,post,lat) 3. point in time process of infarction (acute,evolving,old)  
🗑
Presenting s/s for ACS   chest pain sudden and continue despite med or rest  
🗑
What are some typical ECG changes to point to MI   Twave inversion, ST seg elevation, abnormal Qwave....with two elevated ST seg is indicative of MI(STEMI), returns to normal in recovery.  
🗑
What are the three ceatine kinase isoenzymes   CK-MM(muscle), CK-MB(heart muscle), CK-BB(brain)  
🗑
What cardiac enzymes help detect MI and how long do they last?   CK-MB: peaks in 24h Myoglobin: peak in 12h Troponin: elevated for 3wk  
🗑
what is main medical mgmt for MI   reduce myocardial O2 demand and incr O2 supply w/ meds, O2, bed rest  
🗑
what is pharmacologic therapy for MI   aspirin, nitro, morphine(decr pain/anxiety/preload/afterload), IV beta-blocker/ACE inhibitors...heparin, not NSAIDS..some thrombolytics  
🗑
Invasive Coronary Artery Procedures...all PCI's   PTCA, intracoronary stent implantation, atherectomy, brachytherapy  
🗑
Describe PTCA   balloon-tipped catheter used to open blocked coronary vessels and resolve ischemia to improve blood flow  
🗑
After PTCA a stent is needed, describe   To prevent restenosis(treated area closes off) and metal mesh to provide support to vessel  
🗑
Describe atherectomy   remove atheroma or plaque from coronary artery by cutting, shaving, grinding  
🗑
Describe brachytherapy   radiation put close to lesion.  
🗑
Surgical Procedures: Coronary Artery Revascularization   blood vessel is grafted to an occluded coronary art so blood can flow beyond occlusion, called bypass graft...use saphenous vv  
🗑
