22
Q

coronary artery disease is has high or low levels of LDL and HDL?

Study These Flashcards
A
  • LDL = high

* HDL = low

23
Q

myocardial infarction STEMI vs non-STEMI?

Study These Flashcards
A

STEMI= elevated ST segment

non-STEMI= inverted T wave and elevated cardiac enzymes

24
Q

If cardiac enzymes are elevated, is it STEMI or non-STEMI?

25
angina pectoris typical vs variant
* typical= pain relieved by rest and nitroglycerin; FIXed atherosclerotic narrowing of artery * varient= pain occuring at rest; coronary artery spasm
26
atrial or ventricular septal defect most common congenital cardiac malformation in adults?
atrial septal defect VSD is in CHILDREN
27
Mycardial infarction based on location: LAD, RCA and LC?
- LAD -40-50%; anteroapical left ventricle; ant 2/3 of IVS - RCA -30-40%; post free wall of LV; post 1.3 of IVS - LC - 15-20%; lateral wall LV
28
tardive cyanosis associated with?
L to R shunts
29
myocardial infarction STEMI vs non-STEMI?
STEMI= elevated ST segment and cardiac enzymes non-STEMI= inverted T wave
30
tetralogy of fallot
- pulmonary artery stenosis - ventriculoseptal defect - overriding aorta - right ventricular hypertrophy
31
what is most common cause of tetralogy of fallot?
