19
Q

After 1h of Inf MI +stable

Best next step ?

A
PCI 
"After antiischemic measures 
*PCI wi 90mins of presentation

23
Q

24
Q

46y Africocaribbean + BP 160/90 on 3 separate occasions

Single (initial ) best ttt

A
CCB 
Reviewdiagram 🤔
1- age<55 ACEI 
,,Age >55 &amp; Friccarib.  CCB 
2- ACEI + CCB 
3- ,,,,,,,,+,,,,,,+thiaziade like diuretics
25
$ of rupture Aortic aneurysm (pulstile and mass+ hemodymanic unstable ) Best Invest ?
US
26
Recurrent collapse + ecg AF | Single best invest ?
Echo to know the underling cause
27
Ecg show AF in elderly pt | Next step ?
Metoprolol General rules in AF : *rate control : bb or CCB or digoxin(in case of HF ) or combination Rhythm control that reserved for young pt ,symptomatic, younger present for 1st time : Amiodarone or EC NB if new AF + unstable >>>EC
28
Alcohol+ sinus tachy
Reassure | Alcohol one of the causes of sinus tachy
29
Dysnea +typical chest pain + ecg non specific finding
Do cardiac troponins
30
66y presented with stroke +AF +thrombolyes | Discharge on as prophylaxis ?
Warfarin
31
Recurrent AF | Prophylaxis?
Warfarin
32
42y had corrective surgery for cyanotic HD at the age of 3 + parasternal heave + diastolic murmer at the Lt upper sternal age dx?
PR
33
6w baby with progressive cyanosis + poor feeding + tachypnea+ holosystolic murder
Tricuspid atresia
34
Echo :detected Dec ejection fraction and Dec septal wall thickness dx
Dilated cardiomyopathy | Manifested by Lt s HF and or RSHF
35
Dominant arterial BS of the heart ?
The A who supplies the post descending artery determine the coronary dominant Most common Rt coronary .
36
HR < 30 | 1st line of ttt
Atropine | 0.5mg shot then up to 3 mg
37
79y with hx of IHD + green yellow halos + n&v Ecg show arrhythmia Med that responsible for these $
Digoxin toxicity | Antidote: digibind
38
Ecg show VF (rate up to 500) | No p or qrs or t wave
Shockabe ( EC )
39
CHF + received furosamide + S of bilateral lo edema | Most appropriate next step ?
``` Ramipril Review managemnet of CHF : 1- ACEi (especially if DM ) and BB 2- spironolactone 3- digoxin (if combined with AF ) ```
40
Heart skipping a beat especially when getting to sleep Palpitation are never sustained Most likely rhythm disturbance ?
Ventricular ectopic If no underling cardiac dix so reassure &it is bengin but If 2ry to cardiac diz it is life threatening like VF
