Exam #2 Flashcards
Left Ventricle Hypertrophy (EKG)
V1-V2: deep S wave
V5-V6: tall R wave
ST-T abnormalities: V6
Right Ventricle Hypertrophy (EKG)
V1: dominant tall R wave
V5-V6: deep S wave
ST-T abnormalities: inverted T wave at V1-V3
Right Atrial Abnormalities (EKG)
Lead II: peaked P wave
Lead V1: first pos. P wave larger than second neg. P wave (80:20)
Coarctation of the Aorta is common found in pateints w
Turner Syndrome
4-24hrs post MI Morphological Changes
dark mottling - coagulation necrosis
1-3 days post MI Morphological Changes
yellow palor - neutrophil infiltrate
4-7 days post MI Morphological Changes
hyperemic border w central yellow palor - dead cells phagocytize by macrophages
7-10 days post MI Morphological Changes
yellow palor centre w depressed red-tan margins - granulation tissue at margins
10-14 days post MI Morphological Changes
red gray borders - established granulation tissues
> 2 months post MI Morphological Changes
white gray color - collagen scarring
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy causes
Autosomal dominant mutation in
- B myosin chain
- myosin binding protein C
Restrictive Cardiomyopathy cause
Amyloidosis leading to formation of B-pleaded sheets
heat beat box count

AV Nodal Re-Entrant Tachycardia ECG finding
Retrograde P wave following the QRS complex
Atrioventricular Re-Entrant Tachycardia (Wolff Parkinson White syndrome) EKG
Short PR interval with slurred wide QRS
Delta wave
Orthodromic AVRT motion and ekg
- through AV node then through accessory pathway back to atrium
- Retrograde P wave after QRS complex
Antidromic AVRT motion and ekg
- through accessory pathway then through AV node back to atrium
- Large wide bizarre QRS followed by retrograde P wave
AV block 2nd Degree Mobitz Type III EKG
2 P wave for every 1 QRS complex
AV block 3rd Degree EKG
Loss of conduction between atria and ventricle resulting in the ventricle pacing themselves
P wave and QRS have no correlation
Normal sinus rhythm (QRS are consistent)
Right Bundle Branch Block EKG
WIDE QRS
V1: QRS will be pointing up
V1-V3: inverted T wave
V6: pos. R wave w wide S wave
Left Bundle Branch Block EKG
WIDE QRS
V1: QRS will be pointing down
V1-V3: positive T wave
Myoglobin used in MI
to assess for reperfusion after thrombolysis
management of MI
HOBANACS
Heparin Oxygen Beta blocker Aspirin Nitroglycerin ACE inhibitor Clopidogrel (antiplatelet) Statins
Aortic stenosis murmur
(Harsh, systolic, crescendo-decrescendo murmur
