*Cardiology Flashcards
(121 cards)
heart if low K
increased heart irritiability
heart if high K
decreased automatcity/condution
heart if low Ca
decreased contractility/increased irritability
heart if high Ca
increased contractility
purpose of magnesium
stabilizes the cell membrane
heart if low Mg
decreased conduction
heart if high Mg
increased myocardial irritability
RCA
supplies right ventricle and 90% of population’s SA node
supplies the Right ventricle and SA node
RCA
inferior MI
right coronary artery blocked & SA Node
bradycardia due to SA node involvement
LCA block
widowmaker
occludes both LAD & LCX so basically the entire left side of heart
what does LAD block MI’s
anterior
septal
anteroseptal MI
MI when left circumflex (LCX) is blxed
lateral & posterior MI
troponin initial rise
4hrs
troponin peak
14-25 hrs
troponin return to baseline
3-5 days
CK-MB initial rise in MI
3-6hrs
CK-MB peak in MI
12-24hrs
CK-MB duration in MI
2-3 days
myoglobin initial rise and peak
initial rise in 2hrs
peak 6-9hrs
return to baseline in 1 day
normal troponin =
under 0.04
troponin of probable MI
over 0.4
leads in inferior MI
II, III, aVF
avoid if inferior MI
BB & nitro
