Ca Flashcards
Tirofiban
Inhibit gbIIb/IIIa
Clopidogrel
Inhibit the psy12 (adp receptor)
Clavix
Aspirin
Inhibit cyclooxygenase and the synthesis of TXA2
Warfarin
Inhibit vitamin k epoxied reductase
Anticoagulant given if MI and atrial fibrillation
Reduced vitamin k
Important for carboxylation of factor 2 7 9 10 protein c and s
Physiologic inhibitors of coagulation
Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (inhibit TF-VIIa complex)
Antithrombin III (synthesized in liver and endothelial cells, irreversibly binds and inhibits thrombin and other clotting factors)
Thrombomodulin (endothelial cells, binds to thrombin, decrease ability to produce fibrin, increase thrombin’s ability to activate protein c)
Protein c and s (inactivate factor 8 and 5)
Factor 5 Leiden
Do not respond to protein c (prothrombotic state)
Non-physiologic inhibitors of coagulation
Ca2+ chelator ( EDTA, Citrate, oxalate)
Vitamin k antagonist (warfarin)
Heparin (binds to and inactivate ATIII)
Direct thrombin inhibitors (dabigatran, argatroban)
Tissue plasminogen activator
Produced by endothelial cells
Plasmid digest fibrin
PAI
Plasminogen activator inhibitor
A2-antiplasmin or a2-macroglobulin
Inactivate plasmin
Alteplase
Synthetic plasminogen activator
Used immediately after a stroke, heart attack or pulmonary embolism
Cardiac glycoside
Digoxin
Oubain
Inhibit Na-k pump which result in intracellular Na and Ca accumulation (Na-Ca exchanger)
Positive iconographic agent
Cardiac glycosides (digoxin oubain)
Catecholamines
Glucagon
Phosphodiesterase inhibitor
Negative ions tropic agents
Increased parasympathetic stimulation
Decrease sympathetic stimulation
Beta blockers
Calcium channel blockers
Staircase or tremendous phenomenon
Increases in heart rate enhance myocardial contractility
Afterload
Acceptable index is mean aortic pressure
After load is ventricular wall stress proportional to (P*r)/h
(Ventricular wall thickness increase afterload decrease
PR interval
0.12 - 0.20 sec
QRS duration
0.08 - 0.10 sec
QT interval
0.4 - 0.43 sec
RR interval
0.6 - 1 sec
Lymphatic vessels
Found in all tissue except CNS, cartilage, bone, bone marrow, thymus, placenta, cornea and teeth
Sternal angle
Lamdmark: superior border of the pericardium bifurcation of the trachea End of the ascending aorta Beginning and end of the arch of the aorta Beginning of thoracic aorta
