1
Q

define cardiac failure

A

pump failure due to structural & functional disorder iimpairing the ability of ventricles to fill or eject blood decreasing CO

Q

NYHA 3-4

A

duiretics, cardiac glycosides, sympathomimitics, vasodilators

17
Q

RAAS inhibitors: MOA, drugs

A

HF activates RAAS because it decreases perfusion of kidney, renin release, promoted by SY stimulation

drugs: Captopril (ACEi)
losartan (ARB)

18
Q

ACEi captopril

A
  • decrese vasocontriction, after & preload leading to increased CO
  • increase brandykinin leading to dialtion,
  • decreasing aldosterone
    indication: HF with reduced ejection fraction and is combined with other drugs
19
Q

ARB’s losartan

A

competitive inhibition of angiotensin 2 on AT1 receptors

- decrease afterload and preload leading to a increase cardiac output

20
Q

diuretics 1st line for? some examples

A

1st line for both systolic and diastolic HF, decreases preload and oafterload

  • aldosterone antagonists
  • potassium excreting
21
Q

Aldosterone antagonists

A
  • eplerenone, sprionolactone
  • prevents salt retention, mycardial hypertrophy, hypokalemia and decreases remodeling
    indication: sever hf with reduced ejectionf raction + MI
22
Q

potassiu, excreteing

A
  • relieve pulmonary HT + peripheral edema
  • decrease sypmtoms of volume overload
  • decrease the preload leading ot decrease cardiac work and O2 demand
  • decrease the afterload leading to decreased pressure
    indication: increase survival of HF patients with renal insufficiency
23
Q

vaso and veno dilators

use, examples, indication, adverse effects

A
  • decrease pre and afterload
  • nitrates, hydralazine, nitroprusside
  • HF w/ EF + intolerance to ACEi + BB
24
Q

Heart rate controllers

A

ivabradine: block I.f channel ->decreasing HR

- Ranolazine - block late Na ch-> decreasing ca -> decreased contractility

25
Q

BB use, examples, indication, adverse effects

A

-increase systolic function, reverse cardiac remodelling
-decrease HR, decrease hyper trophy
-inhibit renin reliease
bisprolol, nebivolol, metoprolol, carvedilol
- indication: HF, HF r EF

26
Q

+ ionotropicdrugs

A
1- heart glycosides
2-B agonists
3-PDE inhibitors
4-calcium sensitizers
5-new grugs for acute HF
27
Q

examples of B agonists

A

dobutamine

dopamine

28
Q

dobutamine use, examples, indication, adverse effects

A

b1 stimulation -> gs-> increase in cAMP leading to + ino,dromo, chronotropy
racemic + isomer = b1 agnosits + alpha1 antagonist
-short half life, drop infusion
-indication:acute HF : cardiogenic shock, MI,heart surgery, OD on BB, acute decompensation in congestive HF
- adverse effects: tachycardia, arrythmia, tachypylaxis

29
Q

dopamine use, examples, indication, adverse effects

A
  • low dose D1 leading to decrease in NE -> vasodilation in viscera
  • meduim dose b1 stimulation -> +ionotropy
  • high dose: alpha1 -> vasoconstriction
  • indication: cardiogenic shock, increase perfusion in kidneys + splanchnic area
  • adverse effects: tachycardia, tolerance, bad pharmacokinetics
30
Q

PDE inhibitors use, examples, indication, adverse effects

A

-increase cAMP, vasodilation leading to a decrease in TPR, used in acute HF
adverse effects: thrombocytopenia , hepatotoxic, HF
contraindicated in aortic stenosis, HCM
examples:
bipyridines: amirone, milrinone
methylxanthine derivatives: theophyllin, aminophyllin
other: vesnarinon

31
Q

calcium sensitizers

A

enhancement of ca sensitivity of tropinin c myofibrils,
they dont increase cAMP or ca
indication: acture decompensation of severe chronic HF
benzimadazoles: primobendan: oral,iv, inhibit PDE, narrow T.I
levosimendan: infusion IV, open ATP dep K ch. leading to vasodilation

32
Q

new drugs for acute HF:

A

-endothelin 1 ATG: bosetan ambrisentan
oral, toxic, (i) pulm HT, raynaud
-endothelin convertase inhibitor: phosphoramidon
-BNP: nesiritide, IV bolus t1/2 about 20 min. (I) absolute refractory HF
leads to an increase in cGMP leading to VD
its nephrotoix
-othersL coEZ Q10, aliskiren, serelaxin
