A
thoracic aortic dissection
2
Q
apical impulse
A
5th ics mid clavicular line left sternal border
LVH (severe) and cardiomyopathy can displace more than 3cm, it is larger and more prominent
3rd trimester preggers S3 during preggers is OK, located slightly up on the left side of the chest
3

Q
S1 systole Motivated
A
lub
closure of mitral and tricuspid valves
(AV valves have 3 leaflets
7
Q
S2 diastole apples
A
dub
closure of aortic and pulmonic valves

8
Q
S3 sound
A
equals heart failure
early diastole also called ventricular gallup or
S3 gallup
kentuky
always abnormal if after 35 cept preggers, can be normal in kids
The third heart sound is caused by a sudden deceleration of blood flow into the left ventricle from the left atrium
9
Q
s4 heart sound
A
increased resistance from stiff left ventricle usually indicates LVH
can be normal in some elderly
late diastole
atrial gallop
sounds like tennessee

26
parox AF
terminates within 7 days but usually less than 24 hours, generally asymoptomatic
27
AF CC and treatment
fluttering heart, hypotension, pre or near syncopy,
| tx is based on pt type and risk factors for stroke
28
CHADS VASC
```
0 is low 2 or more needs AC
C-CHF
H-HTN
A age over 75
D- DM
S- stroke or tia
V- vascular disease
A- 65-74 years
S- female gender (higher risk)
```
29
AF labs after EKG
TSH, lytes, rena panel, BNP to R/O HF dig level if on digoxin 0.5-2 digibind for elevated
eccho to evaluate for valve problems that increase risk of stroke
30
if parox consider
24hr holter monitor
31
lifestyle for afib
avoid stims, caffeine, nicotine, decongestants and booze in some pts
32
AF - new
refer to cards
can cardiovert if stable in first 48 hours
or seek rate control
33
Rate control meds AF
BB
calcium channel blockers
```
Norvasc (amlodipine)
Plendil (felodipine)
DynaCirc (isradipine)
Cardene (nicardipine)
Procardia XL, Adalat (nifedipine)
Cardizem, Dilacor, Tiazac, Diltia XL (diltiazem)
Sular (Nisoldipine)
Isoptin, Calan, Verelan, Covera-HS (verapamil)
```
or dig cardiac glycosides.
34
AF antiarythmics
amiodarone (cordarone) black box for pulmonary or liver damage, simvastatin with amio can cause rhabdo
35
Af anticoagulation
coumadin- vitamin K agonist only one reccomend for liver failure pt
36
baseline labs for coumadin
prothrombin time is 9.5-13.5 seconds.
INR below 1.1
aptt 30-40sec
platelet count 150,000 to 450,000
37
initial dose for coum-
5mg but frail or elderly above 70 take 2.5
full effect takes a few days 2-3
check INR- every 2-3 days untill theraputic for 2 consecutive checks
then weekly untill stable at between 2-3
then every 4 weeks when stable
38
for non vavlular AF consider
direct thrombin inibitors - xarelto, eliquis, no INR or diet restrictions
39
90% of warafin deaths are caused by
intracerebral hemmorhage
40
INR goal with a prostetic valve
2.5-3.5
41
INR less than 5 or 5-9 with no bleed
5-no vitamin K , sip next dose/adjust baseline dose, recheck once or twice a week while adjusting
5-9 hold one or 2 doses with 1 to 2.5mg of vitamin K monitor INR and lower maintnece dose of coum
42
WPW (more common in kids) delta wave Paroxsysmal SVT- peaked QRS with P waves CC and TX
like a-fib but with p waves, HR like 150 or 250
can be caused by dig tox, etoh, hyperthyroid, caffeine, drugs
EKG, if unstable may need cardioversion
vagal maneuvers
43
pulsus paradoxus
apical pulse can be heard but radial pulse cant be palpated, mesured with BP cuff and sterthoscope, imapired diastolic filling cause drop of sustolic pressure of more than 10mmhg
pulm cause- asthma or emphysema- increased positive pressure
cardiac- tamponade, pericarditis, effusion
44
anterior wall mi
Reciprocal ST segment depression in the inferior leads (II, III and aVF
st elevation in 3-4
45
BP measurement
manual is preferred- 2 or ore readings seperated by at least 2 mins should be averaged per visit
higher number determins BP stage
any change in PVR or CO has corrosponding effect on BP
46
Primary or essential HTN
most often asymptomatic
47
Normal
pre
1
2
normal less then 120 and 80
pre less than 120-139 and 80-89
1 less than 140-159 and 90-99
2 less than 160 or 100
48
angiotensin 1 to angiotensin 2
increases vasoconstriction and BP
| younger pts have higher renin levels than elderly
49
Sympathetic Stim
epinephrin secretion causes tacchy and vasoconstriction
50
preggers and BP
SVR is LOWER from hormones, sys and diastolic decrease during 1st and 2nd trimester
51
secondary HTN, 3 types
Renal: renal artery stenosis- polycystic kidney, or CKD (more common in young)
Endocrine: HYPERthyroid, HYPERaldosteronism, Pheocromocytoma (middle age)
Other- OSA, coarctation of aorta,
52
Malignant HTN
severe HTN iwth end organ damage, retinal hemmorhage, pailledema, acute renal failure and sever HA
53
coartation of Aorta

61
HTN emergency
diastolic BP greater than 120, with end organ damage, NV think increased ICP,
62
isolated systolic HTN in elderly
loss of recoil in artery- increasing PVR
wide pulse pressure
for frail or with sever orthostatic hypotension if older than 60 its ok to be up to 150 systolic
low dose hctc
and long acting ccb-
63

cholesterol check panel
HYPO
K watch iwth dig
na
mag
74
Loop diuretics work by
inhibiting the sodium, potassium, chloride pump of the kidney in the loop of henley
possibly alter excretion of lithium and saliclyates
75
K sparring Aldosterone receptor antagonist diuretics
spironolactone aldactone
epelrenone inspira
increase elimination of water,
used in hirstuism, precosious puberty and htn
avoid with Ace-i (prils)
avoid in
DM 2with microalbuminemia
serum creat greater than 2
serum K over 5.5
76
BB
avoid abrupt discontinue with chronic use
works by decreasing vasomotor activity
inhibits renin and norepinephrine realease
contraindicated in asthma, COPD, emphysema,
2nd degree block weinkie and mobits II ( normal but extra pr)
3rd degree block
77
b1 receptors are
cardiac
78
b2 receptors are
lungs and peripheral vasculature
79
dont use propanalol for HTN because of
short half life
80
CCBs pine endings
blocks voltage gated CA in cardiac smooth muscle, and the nlood vessels, resutls in systemic vasodialation
81

caridzem
depress the muscle of the heart (inotropic effect
82
dihydropyridines
nefidipin- procardia
amlodipine norvasc
felodipine plendil
slow the rate (chronotropic effect
83
drug of choice in DM or CKD
ACEI (pril) ARB (sartan) prevent conversion of angiotensin less vasoconstriction
84
ACEI (pril) ARB (sartan) dont use
mod to sever kidney disease especially renal artery stenosis
High K side effect of this class so effect will be worse
85
Alpha 1 blockers- alph adrenergic (zosin)
teraosin (hytrin) htn and BPH use in this group
tamulosin (flomax) htn only
potent vasodilarors - cause dizzyness, give at bedtime and titrate up
