🗑
Describe Heart damage over time after an MI:   show
🗑
show Dx: need ECG, Lab tests ECG: ST elevation, ST depression, T inversion, Q wave formation Labs: CK-MB and LDH increase. Cardiac troponin and myoglobin levels go up in blood.  
🗑
show 1 hour after the attack of MI, after that hour cell death is irreversible.  
🗑
show Fatal dysrhythmia specially ventricular tachycardia Heart failure, cardiogenic shock rupture of heart or other anatomical elements thrombo-emboli  
🗑
show REFER TO MD for EKG to rule out heart problems. If Cold sweat, call 911  
🗑
Tx for Pt w/chronic HT trouble has angina episode:   show
🗑
What is a common mistake of cardiac pain?   show
🗑
Tx for Pt who has “chronic acid reflux” but TCM interview reveals palpitation & nausea:   show
🗑
show DO NOT TREAT – Refer to MD for assessment.  
🗑
Define Myocarditis:   show
🗑
show Fatigue, dyspnea, palpitation, fever  
🗑
Define Cardiomyopathies:   show
🗑
show Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Dilated cardiomyopathy Restrictive cardiomyopathy  
🗑
show Thickening of intraventricular septum and left ventricle.  
🗑
show genetic, HTN, obstructive valvular disease, thyroid disease  
🗑
What heart disease kills young athletic people?   show
🗑
Define Dilated cardiomyopathy:   show
🗑
show infections, HTN, ischemic heart dz, drugs, EtOH, peripartum cardiomyopathy  
🗑
show Left ventricular hypertrophy and endocardial fibrosis  
🗑
Define Infectious and immunologic disorders of the heart:   show
🗑
show The bacteria enters blood stream directly Most common: Staph aureus, Strep pneumonia.  
🗑
show malaise, fatigue, fever low grade, petechia and splinter hemorrhages, arthritis and arthralgia, and sometimes diarrhea.  
🗑
show lungs, kidneys, spleen, CNS  
🗑
show – rheumatic heart disease Rheumatic fever: acute inflammatory disease that follow a throat infection with group A β-hemolytic streptococci. Incidence mostly in age range 5-15 y.old.  
🗑
Complications of Immunologic disorders of the heart:   show
🗑
Describe Rheumatic Fever:   show
🗑
show Hx of sore throat present – sore throat is exudative and pus producing. Can see white coat back of the throat most of the times.  
🗑
show : migratory polyarthritis, fever, HA, abdominal pain, nausea and swollen lymph nodes.  
🗑
Complications of Rheumatic Fever:   show
🗑
What would labs positive for Rheumatic Fever show:   show
🗑
Treatment for Rheumatic Fever:   show
🗑
Define Kawasaki’s disease:   show
🗑
show Valvular opening decreases in size (stenosis) or valves don’t close properly.  
🗑
show Congenital, trauma, IHD, degenerative changes, and inflammation. RF is a common cause for valvular problems. They produce blood flow turbulence Mostly chronic conditions  
🗑
show (stenotic valvular problems):Decrease of blood flow through a valve, resulting in impaired emptying and increased work demand on the heart chamber that empties blood across the diseased valve  
🗑
Ex of Stenosis:   show
🗑
Define Regurgitation of Valves:   show
🗑
Describe Mitral valve prolapse (MVP):   show
🗑
Is valvular heart disease more prevalent in men or women?   show
🗑
show chest pain (non-exertional), weakness, fatigue, dyspnea, palpitation, anxiety, lightheadedness.  
🗑
show Use of β-blockers to treat autonomic manifestations. Antibiotics for preventive infective endocarditis before dental work.  
🗑
show Failure of the heart as a pump, to eject blood out and into the systemic and pulmonary systems  
🗑
Describe the impact of Heart Failure in America:   show
🗑
show Mortality is high even with appropriate and aggressive treatment (more than 50%).  
🗑
Define Preload:   show
🗑
Define Afterload:   show
🗑
show In a range, an increase in the preload will increase the stroke volume meaning the more blood enters the heart the more leaves the heart, as the heart does not like to keep the blood in it

🗑
Tx of Acute pulmonary edema:   show
🗑
show Failure of the heart to pump the blood in the systemic circulation, no O2 and nutrients provided to tissues and organs due to impaired perfusion.

🗑
Describe Ventricular tachycardia:   show
🗑
Describe Ventricular fibrillation:   show
