(39 cards)
- Chest pain worse in supine
- relieved by sitting upright and leaning forward
Pericarditis
Definitive test CAD
Coronary Angiography
Best to detect reinfarction after initial infaction
CK MB
Most common cause of out of hospital death from STEMI
V fib
Most common cause of in- hospital death from STEMI
Pump failure
ST segment (V2- V6) elevation with PR- segment depression
Pericarditis
Murmur that alwayts signify structural heart disease
Diastolic murmurs
Murmur Grade where thrill is heard
Grade IV
Heard best at the second right intercostal space and radiates to the carotid arteries
Aortic Stenosis
Heard at the second Left intercostal space
Pulmonic Valve murmurs
Heard at lower left sternal border
Aortic Regurgitation
Tricuspid murmurs
VSD murmurs
Heard at apex and radiates into the axilla
Mitral Regurgitation
- diastolic murmur after opening snap
- low-pitched, tumbling, diastolic murmur at the apex
- opening snap right after S2 d/t high LA pressure and readily audible in expiration
Mitral Stenosis
holosystolic
MR/TR
- early Diastolic murmur
- left sternal border and widened pulse pressure
- murmur is also heard over femoral artery.
- High pitched, blowing
AR
Diamond shaped, crescendo,- decrescendo midsystolic murmur
Paradoxical reverse splitting of S2
Prominent S4
AS
Cardinal sx of Aortic Stenosis “SAD”
Syncope
Angina
Dyspnea
refers to a weak and delayed carotid upstroke
pulsus parvus et tardus
AR- To and fro Murmur heard over the femoral artery is compressed
Duroziez sign
AR- “Rumbling sound” in severe AR (functional MS)
Austin flint
AR- Bounding and forceful pulse, rapidly increasing and subsequently collapsing
Water- Hammer or Corrigan’s fulse
AR- Capillary pulsation at the root of the nail
Quincke’s pulse
AR- Booming “pistol shot” sound over femoral arteries
Traube sign
Pulse pressure in AR and AS
AS- Narrowed pulse pressure
AR- Widened pulse pressure
