Triada de taponamiento cardiaco y que le pasa al pulso?
Becks triad:
- muffled sounds
- hypotension
-jugular venous distention
que le pasa al pulso?
pulsus paradoxus (drop in systolic blood pressure > 10 mm Hg during inspiration)
In cardiac tamponade, outward expansion of the ventricles is limited because of fluid in the pericardial space. During inspiration, increased venous return leads to increased right ventricular volume. As outward expansion is limited, the right ventricle expands via the interventricular septum, which bulges into the left ventricle. This effect leads to further reduction in left ventricular filling during inspiration, resulting in decreased stroke volume and a subsequent drop in blood pressure. A drop in systolic blood pressure > 10 mm Hg during inspiration is known as pulsus paradoxus, a sign characteristically seen in moderate and severe cardiac tamponade but also in some cases of severe asthma, tension pneumothorax, and constrictive pericarditis.
en que se ve enfisema subcutáneo?
- bronchial rupture
- esophageal rupture
- pneumothorax (traquea away)
endocarditis valvula afectada en iv drug use?

tricuspide regurgitation? 4th L ICS systolic.
endocarditis causal IV drug use?
staph aureus si ACUTE
strep pyogenes si SUBACUTE
staph apidermidis causa endocarditis en quien?
venous catheters
prosthetic heart valves, or medical devices (e.g., pacemakers, ICDs)
IV drug use SUBACUTE (acute es staph aureus)
DVT prophylaxis in individuals at increased risk of thrombotic complications prior to surgery?
low molecular weight heparin (enoxaparina, delteparina)
start 12 h before surgery and continue x 3 weeks
LMWHs are contraindicated in patients with renal failure; therefore, all patients should be screened prior to LMWH initiation, si renal insufficiency use unfractionated heparin)
DiGeorge syndrome defecto cardiaco?
truncus arteriosus defect (single overriding vessel seen on echocardiography), VSD, tetrallogy of fallot
cromosoma 22
micrognathia, cleft palate, a broad nasal bridge, a short philtrum, and low-set ears.
Impaired development od parathyroids: hypoparathyroidism and hypocalcemia, which may lead to tetany and seizures during infancy.
turner sd
45 X,O
bicuspid aortic valve or coarctation of the aorta
down sd
atrioventricular septal defect
rubela congenital
patent ductus arteriosus (continuous machine-like murmur)
catarata bilateral
hearing loss
thoracic aortic aneurysm on x ray findings?
boton aortico+wide mediastinum
dx: estable tac angiografia // inestable us trastoracico
cuales aneurismas aorticas se reparan?
elective endovascular aneurysm repair:
large asymptomatic AAAs (≥ 5.5 cm in men; ≥ 5.0 cm in women)
rapidly expanding AAAs (≥ 0.5 cm/6 months)
saccular aneurysms
symptomatic AAAs (as these are most likely to rupture) regardless of size
high risk comorbidities
chronic use of amiodarona can cause?
Chronic interstitial pneumonitis
Pulmonary fibrosis
Hypothyroidism
Hyperthyroidism or thyrotoxicosis
bradicardia
av block
Corneal micro-deposits
Optic neuritis
heart sound pathognomonic for chronic constrictive pericarditis
golpe pericardio
(ventricles are working against a calcified and thickened pericardium)
estenosis aortica pulso?
Pulsus parvus et tardus
A physical examination finding in which a distal arterial pulse (e.g., the radial pulse) is weak and delayed.
soplo de fiebre reumatica?
mitral stenosis
5h L ICS, diastolico, opening snap
murmur that radiates to interscapular area?
coartacion de aorta (Narrowing of the descending aorta near the ligamentum arteriosum)
usualmente asociado a turner sd (tamb aorta bicuspide)
miopatia inducida por estatina que se hace?
stop statin and after 2–4 weeks change start using Pravastatin, Pitavastatin, Fluvastatin (son las estatinas con menor riesgo de miopatia)
miopatia aumenta creatinine kinase
tx para emergencia hipertensiva?
nitroprusside IV (no usar en renal failure)
otras opciones:
labetalol
nicardipina
en que se ve el milkmaids grip?
syndheham chorea (fiebre reumatica aguda)
Milkmaid grip
A physical examination finding characterized by the inability to maintain muscle contraction in the hands. The patient is asked to grip the examiner’s fingers. Intermittent loss of contraction results in alternating squeeze and release of grip (“milking”). Can be seen in Sydenham chorea.
