Q

explain RAS

A

kidney sense low profusion and release renin(also inc. BP) -> turns angiotensin-angiotensin1-> ACE turns it to Angiotensin 2->cause BP rise. because ang2 is most powerful vasoconstrictor.

Q

Clinical signs of beta blockers?

A
hypotension
decreased BP with exercise
weak pulse
dizzy
orthostatic hypotension
lower extremity edema
monitor pulmonary symptoms
weight gain with heart failure.
17
Q

beta blockers
myocardial ischemia?
uncomplicated hypertension?

A

increase performance

decrease performance.

18
Q

MOA of calcium channel blockers?

A

interfere with calcium uptake in arteriole smooth muscle in cardiac muscle.

19
Q

ADR of calcium channel blockers?

A

low BP
Headache
Papitation
Orthostatic hypotension

20
Q

Clinical signs of calcium channel blockers?

rehab implications?

A

hypotension
Orthostatic hypotension
dizzy
LE edema.**

less effect on performance.

21
Q

MOA of ACE 1

A

inhibit Angiotensin converting enzyme ACE

CO and HR don’t change. but lowers BP

22
Q

ADR of ACE 1

affect RAS

A
chronic cough
hyperkalemia
Impaired by NSAIDS
Orthostatic hypotension
increase risk of angioedema
Low BP
23
Q

MOA of ARB?

A

prevent angiotensin 2 from binding to receptor on blood vessel.

lowers BP

24
Q

ADR of ARB?

affect RAS

A
low bp
hyperkalemia
dizzy
Orthostatic hypotension
impaired by NSAID
NO COUGH
25
MOA of direct renin inhibitor
block renin release
26
ADR of direct renin inhibitor
peripheral edema increased serum creatinine increase risk of stroke/renal complications after 18-24 mo
27
what is more important cardiovascular risk factor SBP or DBP?
SBP
